@RebornPhoenix That explains it. Do you want mine again?

Lol Sneak around. But when you're an adult, you should have the freedom to love whoever you want. And parents should understand that, or they'll have to watch us rebel.

I wouldnt care what people think. It is your relationship not theres. Worrying about others will just make you depressed and cause problems in the relationship. One of the hardest things to learn as you get older is to stop worrying what others think. Good luck girl!

@Lex222 thank you. This is what I wanted and needed to hear

Generally the parents didn't take an interest in this sort of thing but I was certainly inclined to take their input seriously and to follow their lead to a great extent should they have done so and on the occasions when they gave input.

SW-User

I don't give two hoots what my parents think of her, but my wife doesn't like my gf at all.

My mother was not budging on her opinions of my girlfriend. Did not care, and now that I'm married she just deals I reckon. Love doesn't ask permission.

RebornPhoenix · F

@Powderflask exactly.

ninalanyon · 61-69, T

Ask them why and consider that it is possible that they are right.

RebornPhoenix · F

@ninalanyon they're just being racist and ignorant

ninalanyon · 61-69, T

@RebornPhoenix Ah, that sort of disapproval. Oh dear. Then I can't say much except to say stay true to your self and to wish you good luck.

I would never present my parents with a disappointing partner, nor would I even consider dating someone who doesn’t fulfill my criteria.

ClanNaFiacaillApWythe · 51-55, M

Why do they disapprove of the bf or gf? They are often right to do so.

ClanNaFiacaillApWythe · 51-55, M

@ClanNaFiacaillApWythe Oftentimes the parents know better. I would take their input seriously and proceed with caution in that case.

Success · 26-30, F

I'd consider the reason for disapproval. Parents can be perceptive.

SW-User

Yeah I used to sneak around.

RebornPhoenix · F

@SW-User oooo tell me more lol

SW-User

@RebornPhoenix sometimes it's all you can do.

RebornPhoenix · F

@SW-User facts. You get it homegirl

Nunlover

None of their business, do your thing

Ishtar · 22-25, F

Gotta get their approval somehow

Effloresce · 26-30, F

I’m sneaking around until I can move out. Then I won’t care what they think

bearinthehalfwayhouse · 26-30, M

Depends why I'd say... ┬┴┬┴┤•ᴥ•ʔ

Repent, send a letter to the pope for forgiveness and burn her on the altar for the pleasure of the chosen ones, a.k.a. the parents. Or are we all equal humans..? 🤔

SW-User

Well it depends why they don't approve
Gotta have that respect but I'd sit everyone's ass down and have a talk

RebornPhoenix · F

@SW-User bc they're racist and ignorant and judgmental

ClanNaFiacaillApWythe · 51-55, M

@SW-User I agree. Parents, grandparents, sibilings, other relatives all have the right to a say on who u see.

DonaldTrumpet · 70-79, M

Spokeskitties75 · 46-50, M

If you live under their roof it’s “yeah it sucks.” If you live on your own it’s, “ screw them and what they think!”

RebornPhoenix · F

@Spokeskitties75 I'm working on becoming independent but I kind of agreee

WizardOfAahs · 46-50, M

Depends... are your parents good parents or shitty.

PDXNative1986 · 36-40, MVIP

I would not care. I would rub her in their faces....

MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
