My girlfriend's parents don't like me. What can I do?
maybe they just need to warm up to you. if they get to know you, and they realize that you're always going to be around, they'll have a more open mind. just be a gentleman. treat your girlfriend as she's supposed to be treated and be respectful towards her parents. maybe go to her house more often so you can get to know them. and don't just keep to yourself..sit on the couch with her dad and watch a basketball game, talk to her mother. talk to her younger siblings if she has any. when a holiday comes around you can get them a little basket, wine, etc. going out of your way to do something nice tells a lot about a person. whether or not they like you now, they'll have to learn if you end up marrying her. i don't think their daughter would be too happy if they gave you a hard time, being that you'd be sharing the rest of your lives together.
My parents don't like my girlfriend or her parents what can I do? They liked her before.
If these parties don’t like each other than it will be difficult to manage a marriage. You will be forced to give up your parents in favor of your woman and her family. If that’s what you chose, you must be strong enough to go forward without them. Sometimes hearts soften, but heartache is certain and more often permanent.Good luck, Mac
What should I do if my parents don't like my girlfriend?
Unless your parents are complete fuckheads, which is entirely possible, I wouldn't discount what they say so quickly. I loved my first wife. There were even some similarities between my relationship and yours. She had a child, lived at home, had a history of being the victim of sexual abuse, the whole nine yards. We also knew each other in high school and, I admit, I had a huge crush on her. My parents didn't care for her. Not that they didn't like her but rather that they didn't like her being with me. They felt that neither of us were mature enough to be in a relationship. I figured this was just parents being parents. We loved each other and that's all that mattered. We got married. A few months after the wedding she was warming another man's bed and I was a glorified babysitter. You see, it turns out that what she wanted wasn't money or a "baby-daddy" but an escape. I was in the Navy at the time and could guarantee her a way out of her current situation. My parents were right about her. More importantly, they were right about me being too immature. They didn't have "all the facts." When they met the woman I am married to right now it was a completely different dynamic. They loved her. They did then and do now think the world of her. They say that if she and I ever get divorced she gets them in the settlement. I think they are joking but am not too sure. What's my point? My parents have been right about every single woman I've dated. How? They have the benefits of hindsight on their own mistakes, experience in similar situations, and most importantly, a level of objectivity that I could not have considering how "close" I was to the situation. I'm not saying the woman you're with is bad, I'm not saying your parents are right. I'm just saying that maybe you should try to take a step back and see the situation a little more objectively. You're older now than I was then, it should be a little easier for you to do.
My Parent's don't like my Girlfriend :(?
I know they are stupid reasons. All my friends say the samething. But they kind of are teh main reasons. My parents feel that her being short, we'll look weird out in public and it'll be embarrassing, which is really messed up :( I'm like 5'8" and she's like i dunno, 5'1"-5'3". And because she's short, my parents think that she'll be troublesome and everything. Also, her not being a US citizen makes them think she's after my green card and that it'll be really troublesome in the future. I'm asian so I can understand where they're coming from because I'm their only child and stuff. They think in the traditional sense and even though I tell them times are changing, they still stick to what they think. My girlfriend is such a nice person and I can't say anything bad about her because...she hasn't or doesn't have anything that I can complain about. Thanks for are your help so far. More would be greatly appreciated :)
My girlfriend's parents don't trust me?
If you guys are younger than 25, sorry bud but you are not going to be trusted by her parents. These things take time and all you can do is be a gentleman and not do stupid stuff that make her parents mad. If you're lucky, they will give you the benefit of the doubt. If not, you're just going to have to wait until you are in you late 20's. (And sometimes THAT's not even enough.)
My Girlfriends Parents don't speak english?
Use the little Spanish you know, and be willing to laugh at your own mistakes. Turn it around - wouldn't you rather her parents tried to speak a little English, even if they're not very good at it? The best way to learn any language is to practice it. Ask your girlfriend what she thinks. I'll bet it's better to make the effort to communicate. Buena suerte! (good luck!) Encantado de conocerle - I'm very pleased to meet you. "Hablo solo un poquito de Espanol, y no entiendo mucho. Habla lento, por favor!" "I speak only a little Spanish, and don't understand much. Please speak slowly!"
My girlfriends parents don't want her to date. Can I change their minds?
Parents can be overprotective at times. I know because my parents can be like that at times. They probably just want the best for her which is obviously not boys so maybe thats why they dont let her date . Do they let her date till a certain age ? Well why dont you prove to her parents that your not like the other boys . Show them that your respectful , responsible and overall just a good guy. Im sure that they'll atleast appreciate you trying to prove to them that your not like the others . If that doesnt work out well then i dont know what will . Well best of luck and hope i helped .(:
My girlfriends parents don't like her to be in a relationship with me but she is very true in her love, how to convince her parents?
Ask her to make a good image of your in front of her parents. Ask her to sit with parents spend some time and tell them why you are compatible to her what are the qualities that she likes in you, why you both thing that you can stay happy forever and convince them so that they understands you. If this is not working out then take them for parental counselling. The experts will help her and her parents to get out of this situation.Best Luck.
