mother in law meeting me at the airport

Thank God my visa is already here and i am very happy because finally i will be flying in 2 days to the US but i cant explain how i am feeling right now.My mother in law will be the one to meet me in the airport with 2 of my husband's best friends and i dont feel comfortable.Well,i had known mom before we got married yet ,we had several phone conversations and i saw her pics and chatted with her for like 2 times on the internet but i still have this feeling of shyness..and too much questions and wishes on my mind..like will she like me?I wish she will,or what will i do on the first time i see her,kiss her and hug her? .I just feel uncomfortable without my asawa when meeting my mother in law for the first time besides having cold feet in flying to the US for the first time too..My asawa is going to have a very important meeting and will try to meet me with mom and his best friends in a restaurant as soon as possible.Anybody who had the same experiences like what i am going to have,pls share.

thank you and God bless

dont worry abelyn it would be fine in the long run.... adjustment takes time just be yourself on your first meeting and be respectfull .. been there! congratulations! and have a nice trip

My experience is that My husband is the one who pick me up at the LA airport but... bcuz of his deployent in Iraq i need to fly with his mom to here in Massachusttes. We spend 2 days together alone and pick his mom up at the LA airport too to be wth us for 3 days. I feel the same thing too bcuz i have a cousin an dshes married to pinoy and her mother in law treating her bad and i feel nervous and keep praying that my mom in law wont be like that but then while we are flying from LA to Massachusettes, she is taking care of me and treating me like a youngest baby hehe untill now, she tels everyone that im the baby Im only 19 and my husabnd is 26 which is the youngest of the family, the whole family and relatives are so nice and good.

When we pick her up at the Airport that day im the one that my husband stand in front of the door so she will see me hehe.. and I just wave and hug her and feel so shy but i saw my husband hug and kiss her hehe... Wen we are on our way to rent a car for 3 days im so quite and she asking me things about my flight and ask the same thing to her and thats when we start the bonding hehe..

Kaya dont worry about it just keep praying and it will be ok. Its ok for the first time to meet your mom in law na you feel nervous and dnt know wat to do, but you will be alright.

GOD belss you and Have a wonderful and nice trip! Take Care!

It would have been nice if your husband would have met you by himself but it sounds like circumstances prevented it. Just be yourself and you will do just fine. I kept my parents off at bay for almost a week after I picked up my fiance at the airport. Even then she was still very nervous about meeting my parents so even if you could delay the meeting, I don't think your nervousness would change. You have the opportunity of getting that meeting out of the way right away so you don't have to worry on it any longer. Good luck.

Here's my experience:
When I traveled coming here (US) my husband was with me. When we arrived in the airport, my husband's whole family were there to picked us. When I finally met them all, I just hug them all and I said "I'm so happy to see you".
Good luck and have a safe trip. Don't worry eveything will be already.

You have every right to be apprehensive, but remember to be grateful that you are getting met by "anybody" at a US airport. 1000's would trade spaces w/u.

My God!

You have married a "Mama's Boy".
You will never measure up to his expectations, your life here in USA will always be hell. You will always be competing with Mama.
Didn't anybody tell you these things?

If he was sending his Bud's to pick up, that is one thing, but to send his MOTHER, big RED FLAGS girlfriend.

Unless he is having chemotherapy, or is in jail, there is absolutely no excuse for him not meeting you at the airport in person. How very disrespectful of him.
