That's a reach!
'they put up with you as part of their family.'

Not sure. Mine are some of the greatest people I know. Sometimes I put them above my own blood.

They hated you first.

I had amazing in-laws. I miss them so much.
Not everyone is that lucky.

I get along really well with mine.
My wife has never really gotten along with my parents. It's mostly because my mom is a little strange and overbearing at times.

I had a great relationship with mine while I was drunk, they were codependent on my addiction. Used it to keep power over my family. Now that I'm sober not so much, taking control of my life doesn't fit their agenda.

Has your ex. ever gotten the help he needed? Did his family push him to get help?
My MiL is fine. SistersiL are fine. None of them are nearly as smart-assed as my family. (Shocker, I know)

I love mine and they love me.
But keep in mind they know what you're doing to their daughter in the bedroom. And on the couch. And in the laundry room. And on the patio.
Nevermind, they're inlaws now so you're already married and none of the above applies anymore.

I actually get along better with my in-laws than with my own parents. A big part of it was that my parents got really selfish and over protective of me when I proposed to my wife, even though I begged them to stay out of it. I told them they were making a huge mistake and that it would leave a lifetime of estranged relations with my wife (at best). They didn't listen and gave me attitude ("how dare you tell your parents what to do, you don't know as much about life as we do", etc.) Guess what happened. Exactly what I said was going to happen. Me and the wife called off our wedding and eloped. Her dad showed up for the private ceremony and that was that.
Big lesson to learn here for parents: stay the frick out of your kids' wedding plans and be very careful what you say to your potential son/daughter in-law. I vowed that I will never pass that same down to my son or daughter.
It's sad that the latter half of my life with my parents is now estranged, but what the hell. My wife and my kids are my life now. Just as it was for them. But somewhere along the way, they forgot that. You insult my wife or my kids, you are insulting an extension of me as well.

I don't know. From what I occasionally hear, he seems to be doing a lot better. I hope he is.

Mother-in-law from my first marriage was a psychopath and i didn't know it until a few months after she was caring for my two toddlers. When I found out what she did to one of my children I came close to killing her. My children and I were never in her presence again. I hope she is burning in hell for eternity!!!

My in laws are awesome. I figure since I married a product of their parenting that they would be pretty darned good.
We hang out and vacation/dive with them.
Very happy with the situation
