How can you gain your girlfriend's parents acceptance?

Answer 1

show your parents that your friends are very smart, polite, and well behaved if your friends are not like that then just make them act like that while your parents are around ==Another thought...== The way to get your parents to like your friends is...to pick nice friends. That may seem like a flip answer, but when you think about it, it's really not. Your parents love you and want you to be happy and succeed in life. They understand that part of this is going to have a lot to do with the friends you choose. If they see you with friends who they feel will be a negative influence on you and hinder or obstruct your efforts to grow and to become a happy, productive member of society, they are naturally going to object. When you pick your friends, try to look beyond what is "popular" or "cool" and see if you can find friends with personal characteristics that you respect, like kindness, honesty, integrity, etc. Having friends that you like and respect as individuals, and that like and respect you as an individual, will go a long way towards helping you become a happy, self-respecting adult...not to mention making your parents happy. Good luck.

Answer 2

Find out what they like and don't like about your girlfriend. Then let your girlfriend know what she can probably do to get on your parents' good side. But what really matters is that both of you respect each other and are happy together.

Answer 3

Well, what you should do is make sure your parents DON'T KNOW. Always sneak out the window so you can visit her and make sure you bring spare clothes so in the morning you can climb back through your window ready for school! I suspect you're 42, right? And you still live with your parents? Yep, me too.

Answer

Find out what your parents expectations are and then meet them! It is best to be upfront with them, especially if you are young. The word for doing this is "unhandy," in the sense that they have oversight of your actions, but it will keep you safe.

Answer 5

== == == == * If your parents don't like your boyfriend then they don't like your boyfriend, but make sure that they understand that your not going to change who you date because they don't like who you are dating. Tell them you are dating that person for a reason. State that reason. Put your foot down and talk to your parents about how you feel about this person and if they still don't like the person tell them to except that person for you and then walk away, give them a chance to soak that in.

We've been seeing each other since may 08. were three years apart so undoubtedly they stopped letting us see each other after about 6 months. no contact whatsoever. they were fine with me at first but made us break up before things got "too serious" in their eyes. we've been going behind their backs since beginning of November and its becoming incredibly difficult. despite the difference in age, i truly believe she is the one i want to spend the rest of my life with so I've been trying so hard lately to gain their acceptance back so we can see each other. any advice on what i can do or what she can say to her parents?

Answer 7

Your parents should already like/love you. There may be some problems going on with you and your parents, but they will never stop liking you. Just try to spend some time with them. Talk to them about you all relationship. Communication can really help.
