If you learned something about your pardner ’s folk that whole threw you for a loop , we want to know about it .

Everyone remembers the oh-so-very-important step of meeting their partner’s family for the first time. If you’re lucky, it’ll go great, and everyone will walk awaybest friends. If you’re not so lucky, you might find yourself in a completely bizarre scenario.

So I want to know: What was the major WTF moment you had when meeting your partner’s family for the first time?

Maybe you walked into their parents' home and realized they wereextremelywealthy; I’m talking private jets, multiple vacation homes, and outings to Michelin-star restaurants kind of wealthy. Your partner never mentioned this to you, and it completely took you aback.

Maybe you learned their family has some deep, dark secrets that your partner kept from you. Perhaps you saw some suspicious photos or heard a few stories that completely shocked you.

You may have found out their family has some unusual habits. Maybe their father is a little too comfortable around guests and often “forgets” to put on pants. Or you might be dealing with a stereotypical helicopter parent who is wildly overprotective of their adult child.
