My husband and his brothers and sisters have a good relationship with their step mom. Theirs is the kind where they can talk about anything but not really to the point where they can confide with each other. I guess my step mother inlaw and I, too, have the same kind of relationship. The thing is I really want to be closer to her. She's not yet that old so I somehow see her as like an older sister. But I don't want to be over reaching also. I'm thinking, is it okay that I want to be closer to her? My husband may get jealous that I would want to be closer to her than to his own dad.

There is no problem I think men love it when their wives respect and lvoe their moms or step moms. It shows respect and acceptance. Dont worry he will love you more when you love and respect his family! Trust me.

Everyone should try and get along with the family when you are family by law you are still family in my eyes, Because, part of your family loves them and has married them.

the best bet is to ask the person in question, asking can never hurt, and avoids nasty situations later...
