I guess I shouldn't worry about it too much. I've always felt that a guy is not "man enough" if he does that. But reading this thread, a lot of guys and girls feel that hugging and kissing parents is okay.
And no NJMasti.. his parents do all this with all their kids.. not just my husband. So I don't think his parents are doing it to show me anything.
Yeah its hard to change habits that are so strong. I just don't want my own kids to be like that.. mommy daddy type. My husband is very nice to me.. loves me a lot. Even his parents love me more than anything. I guess I just have to ignore the hugging kissing part.
yeah ... look at the brighter side of the picture ... ur in laws love ur husband .. and so do they love his wife and anything related to him.. try appreciating that. :)
