agnf666 Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 So I have been dating this guy for almost a month now. A few days before new years eve he mention wanting us to meet eachothers parents. So, I told him sure.... So, a few weeks have past since then. My family is really into wanting to meet him. So, last night I brang up the thing about meeting each others parents. He told me he is totally cool with meeting them but he is not ready yet?!? He was the one who brang the who conversation about meeting each other parents... I was thinking maybe he wanted to wait until we have been dating a month or something... I just find this wierd that this was his idea to begin with and he is not ready to meet them... I am so confused... So, When did you guys meet the parents???
alphamale Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 So, When did you guys meet the parents??? Most of the women I dated never met my parents because I did not want them to. THe few that did meet my parents usually did not do so until after we'd been together for at least one year. So, lets see...only three women have met one of my parents, and one of them was my ex-wife. I think you're both rushing it if you are even thinking about meeting the other's family before six months.
Merin Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 I didn't meet my BF's parents until we had been dating for 8 months. Well technically I met his Dad for a brief minute after my BF and I had been together for 3 months but that was because my BF had a vasectomy and I was uh... putting frozen bags of pea's on his nuts when his Dad stopped over to give him some medication IMO it sound to me that when this guy you're now dating brought up the 2 of you meeting one anothers families he was (for a lack of better thought structure here) in that "OMFG you're amazing" mode... you know when you're all excited about a new relationship and your all gushy about everything?! AND now he's more relaxed with things and wants to take things slower... Either that, or I'm just to hung over to figure this out.... At this point I wouldn't sweat it that he isn't ready... the relationship is still very new. Good Luck

Taking things slow is what I want him to do anyways... So, this is a good thing. The thing is my family is driving me nuts about it... So, I guess I will just have to put it nicely and explain to them that he is not ready to met you guys... I want to see our relationship get a little more serious before he met my family... so that he doesn't become just another guy!

LOL family ALWAYS wants to meet the person your dating... in my case it isn't so much about "Lets meet this Guy to see if he's good enough" but more like "We're so damn nosey, want to give you some sh*t and see if we can embarrass the poor guy" deal:lmao: You don't need to tell your fam that He isn't ready to meet them yet (well ya know unless you tell your Mom and Dad everything like I do... for real, even sh*t they don't want to know about ha!) but you can tell them that you like this guy and your not ready for them to meet him yet because you want to take this slow
lilmoma1973 Posted January 14, 2006 Posted January 14, 2006 I guess meeting the parents can mean that they are getting serious with you and it can be fun but if you have a mil like i do then it won't be .. I can remember the first time she met me she had the nerve to ask me was i on drugs... I have big blue eyes and pupils are huge that is normal for me daughter has them too!!! I looked at her and said i am sorry that is my eyes and no i don't do drugs.. The nerve of people and till this day i still can't stand her ,she still says the meanest things to me!! Hope your expierence will better than mine.. Loved the grandmother she was sweet but my h's mother no way!!!
