People reveal the heartbreaking reasons their partner's family don't like them

Meeting the in-laws during the early days of a new relationship is hard enough... but when they don't like you, it can be a romance deal-breaker. 

In a new thread on anonymous secret-sharing app Whisper, people have been writing up the reasons their other half's family haven't taken a shine to them.
