I have been asked to accompany the dude I've been seeing to visit his parents for his birthday. I am unsure if I am ready for this step. As it happens, I have a prior engagement so couldn't sleep over (Yes! He wants me to spend the night at his P's....um.....huh?!) but may be driving up the next day for a family brunch (they don't live in IL). Now mind you....we are not yet Boyfriend/Girlfriend. We are both still seeing (or trying to, in my case) other people. I honestly don't know how I feel about this step as I'm not sure if this is "the one" for me. Do I still go? Does it matter? I'm perplexed.
date me!

Should I stay or should I go now? If I go there will be trouble. And, if I stay it will be double.
ReplyDeleteUgh, the parents. It's a weird one, because some people are just like "ho hum, it's my parents" and some people (self included) are like, "dude, you are not meeting my parents until we are walking down the aisle." And my ex's family was totally cool with us sleeping over in the same bed together, whereas my parents were so totally NOT.
ReplyDeleteThis is not really an answer, but do what makes you comfortable. It may be that meeting his parents is not a big deal to him, but if you feel weird about it, you should be able to tell him that.
I agree with Waflen, does it seem to him like he's making this big step? Or does he just want to include you in another part of his life?
ReplyDeleteIf it makes you nervous, make sure it's casual and go! Why not? Never know who you might meet!
Lame advice.
Well....I don't think I have to worry about it because since he has asked me he is now MIA. Yup! Haven't heard from him in THREE days and don't think I will. I honestly think dudes are CRAZY. For some reason I don't think he ever really liked me (I have been on the fence with him though I didn't mind seeing him I wasn't sure one way or the other it would amount to anything) but rather liked the idea of me. He wants a girlfriend. I can tell. But I think he was seeing something in me that just wasn't there and maybe he's found someone else that is more appealing to him? Not sure. But what I'd love to do is show up at his parent's place and be like, "Did I miss anything? So sorry I'm late. Hi everyone.....I'm DORI!"
ReplyDeleteSeriously....who asks someone to meet their parents and then never contact you again. WHO?! This guy.
