How do I tell my boyfriend that my parents don't like him?
Just tell him that your parents don't like him. It is only natural for him to be mature enough to understand that not everyone would like the guy their daughter is dating and that he needs to convince them too that he is good enough for you.Also, since your parents have never met the guy, why don't you invite him over for dinner so that they meet him and appreciate him for who he is rather than rely on a pre-conceived notion and judge him.On another note, if they still don't like him after meeting him. Do make a conscious decision on your relationship, often times parents are way more experienced in judging character, maybe they notice something in him which they think is detrimental for you.
How do I tell my parents I don't want to get married?
Is it wrong that I don't want to get married. I really don't and I'm not sure how to tell my parents because they're always dropping hints about how they want me to get married and since I'm 19 now they want to send me back home to meet a guy. NO. Just thinking about marriage makes me sick. I'm so sick of family. I'm 19 years old and still live at home and then as soon as I move out I have to get married? Hell no. Families are great and all on holidays and certain occasions but not 24/7 365 days a year. No. I don't want that. I've spent 19 years of my life at home with my family, I don't want to spend the other half of my life having a new one. I hate families. I just want to be on my own. I want to work, travel, and just have fun. No I don't want to be a hooker, in fact I wouldn't mind if I stayed a virgin until I died. Sex isn't really a big deal for me anyway. Um so yeah, how do I tell my parents I don't want to be married or have children? I know they will be disappointed because I hear them talking about some of my cousins who are older and aren't married and they call them "weird". Sigh...why is marriage such a big deal. I mean I don't know how girls can do it. I have a friend who lived at home until she was 24 and she moved out because she got married. I can't do that. I want to have some freedom. Maybe I can get married later, but for now I have no plans on marriage at all. I just want to live...I don't want to live according to stupid traditions just to make my family happy. Sorry, my happiness is important too. Just the thought of telling them makes me want to puke....I feel sick ughhh I dunno My parents are traditionalists and marriage is apparently very important. It's all about showing off though just so they can say "Oh yeah my daughter just got married" and it's a big part of our religion as well
How can I tell my parents I don't believe in Islam?
Human life on Earth is about 200000 year old and out of these 200000 years 198000 years were without religion , god (Allah) , and Prophet...Since Muslims believe in Islam and discard other religions there is certainly no need to worry about how old other faiths are ...For 198000 years god was fine with humans eating Pork or with other so called unislamic practices but suddenly he realized something is wrong so he sent a prophet to tell everyone that they better behave or get ready for ready for hell fire.You feelings are quite genuine as an ex muslims i will only advice you to live freely and with a broad vision ...just because you dont wish to dress up or follow someone's definition of religion you aren't bad .Your parents can be either cool enough to respect your thoughts or either they will freak out ...I am a silent Agnotic and choose to live my life my way...i meet new people without checking their tags of religion... I learn about different faiths sometimes just to know what other religions advocate ..Inshort be silent and better create your own definition of life instead of precooked definitions which are force fed by typical Muslim world . Every muslims goes through this force feeding of religion so that we loose ability to question faith and later this force feeding becomes 'My choice' (Referring to Hijab or Burqa)....Be calm and follow your 'own' path till you are big enough to take decisions
How do I tell my parents that I don't want to wear a hijab?
Did they tell you to wear it? Because then you could try talking to them and explain that it’s not working out for you right now. You could try talking to one parent who you know is a little more lenient before talking to both of them together, because then they can help you convince the other parent.But before that, please read the following paragraphs:Perhaps you can find the will in yourself to wear it without taking it off. If you’re unable to talk to your parents (I would recommend that you do), then think of the consequences of taking it off. How will it impact your life? How will it make you feel? Will you feel weird or awkward without it?I’m sure you don’t wear it at home, so maybe next time when you’re about to go out, rethink of your intention with your hijab and ask yourself, why am I wearing this? And try changing the reasoning behind it over time by telling yourself “this is why I’m wearing it today”. That way you won’t need to tell your parents or face any consequences (personal or social etc) of taking it off.I have seen a handful of girls who took it off and haven’t worn it again, and I’ve seen a change in their lifestyle. It was a little worrying if I’m honest. I feel like wearing a hijab makes you think twice before doing anything because you can’t exactly ignore something which is covering your hair and is associated with religion (I feel like it’s a good way of saving oneself from unwanted trouble). But it’s entirely up to you if you just don’t want to wear it.And to be honest, Islam expresses the importance of having a good character. I actually have friends who are amazing people Mashallah (and Alhamdulilah) and they don’t cover their hair, they just dress modestly.And of course, 100% it is your choice, there is no compulsion in this.
How do I tell my parents that I don’t want my dog anymore?
I’m assuming 1) you’re young and 2) at some point you actually wanted your dog - and now you’ve changed your mind? Sit your parents down and talk to them about this, and why you don’t want the dog anymore - too much responsibility for you? too hard to have to consider another living being beside yourself? Hopefully, your parents will use this as an opportunity to teach you values such as responsibility, commitment, consideration of others, consideration of other living beings, and so much more. If your parents only got the dog for you, then you’ll need to discuss options for rehoming the dog This is very important as your dog should not be in a home where it is not wanted.Look into , maybe a friend or family member would want to take him (her) in? If not, find a no-kill shelter in your area that can take in your dog and hopefully find another home for him. Then after this - don’t EVER consider having a pet again. They aren’t household decorations that you can discard when you’re bored or inconvenienced, they are living beings. When you take a pet into your home, you are making a lifelong promise to love and care for that animal.
How do I tell my parents I don't like what I'm studying in college?
You don't tell them you don't like what you're studying. You tell than that you've chosen a specialty, and that it will change your route a little.Even if you choose to study nutrition, you'll still end up with an advanced degree before you're done, and it will still take a long time by your standards. (It's really not that long, you'll see).It sounds like maybe you're a little burned out with school. That happens...I'm not sure where you're at, whether you've completed undergrad or not, but toward the end of undergrad is when burn-out is likely to occur.If that's where you're at, I recommend working hard, and getting yourself into your chosen grad program. Then you'll have a summer off before you continue into grad school.I experienced burn-out, and managed to make it so I graduated from undergrad a semester early, so I had over six months off before entering grad school. (I used my AP credits from high school).If you truly love what you're studying, grad school will be a breeze. You'll enjoy it immensely, and there's plenty of "applied" work in grad school...it's not just classes, so you will be getting more variety than undergrad.Be honest with yourself about what your issue is...why you want to change majors. Then reframe it when you present it to your parents so it will be a step-up, not a failure.Good luck!
How can i tell my parents that i want to quit dance?
I think you should sit down with your parents and have a VERY good, and long talk. You should tell them how dancing might be their passion but its def. not yours, and you want to do something that YOU enjoy! also, that it is hard to manage grades and dance and sports
How do I tell my parents I don't want to be a Jehovah's Witness anymore?
I'm a 16 year old male and have been a Jehovah's Witness all my life. The reason I don't want to be one anymore is because its too stressful on me and I am starting to disagree with some of the beliefs. I am tired of being the 'weirdo' at school who doesn't celebrate Christmas and my birthday. I feel really out of place when we say the pledge of allegiance because I just have to sit there while they do it and I get weird looks, I don't want people to think I am better than it. I have a group of friends who are also Jehovah's Witnesses and all we do during lunch and our free time at school is study and discuss the bible. There are lots of other reasons as to why I don't want to be a Witness anymore but I'd be here all day writing them. I have a big problem which is that my Dad is an Elder, I don't think he'd like the fact that I want to quit. It's not that I don't belive in God anymore because I've done some research and have decided I want to become a Christian. Can you please give me some advice on how I can tell my parents this news? I know that they won't like it but I can't keep living a lie anymore. I have never witnessed a disfellowship before so what would the Kingdom Hall do to me?
How do I tell my Christian parents I don't believe in God? Should I tell them now or wait until after Christmas?
Why do you have to tell him at all? What is the benefit of upsetting them? If there is no God, there is no sense in letting your parents thank you still believe in him
