    I would rather spend time with my Mother in law. We both like to shop and spend time doing fun things with the children in the family. Sometimes we find ourselves sitting on the porch talking for hours when she comes to our house or we go over to hers.

    I'd say mother-in-law. We get along well and she is loads of fun.

    It would have to be FIL. MIL is just so isolated 9 out of 10 times. She stays in her room or she's on her phone or computer and it's just weird sometimes. If we're in a social setting, then that's when she comes alive lol

    FMIL for sure... plus I have already spent a day with her before. I like my FFIL too but spending a day with him would be... a little much.

    Both, but it depends on what we are doing. I love them equally.

    I think FIL!! We have so much in common and he’s wonderful to talk to. I love my MIL too but whenever we all get together she tends to dominate the conversations and he falls into the background.

    I'd say mother in law. I think we could end up having some fun and also relax a bit.

    I've done both-- and i really can't choose they are both very wonderful individuals. I feel like it depends what the day entails. If we were traveling or shopping-- i'd pick MOH, if we were just chilling at home probably father... but I've done this with MOH just fine.. also she likes wine... Actually TBH we are taking a trip together, of my choosing, within the year-- she did this with her other daughter in law, so I think maybe MOH...? We get along so well... but FOH ... no shade-- none. I think it's just easier to relate to her, because she is a mother.

    I’ve actually already done this with my future mother in law: we went to an art museum, got our nails done, went out for food, and went to a pottery place

    They've both passed away. I met them a bit back in 1985 when FH and I first dated, so I guess i'd say MIL. Nothing against FIL, but my FH and him mom were very close

    Good question. My father in law because he would do his own thing, but I like them both
