What should I do?


Question Posted Friday February 9 2007, 12:49 am

So my boyfriend for almost a month still hasn't told his parents that we are going out. His parents are very strict, but he is 18 and I told him that he should be able to do what he wants. I wish he would tell them because I feel like I am in hiding because I can never call him because his parents are around. What should I do about this problem?
Also what is a good gift to give him for valentines. I was thinking a big card and homemade cookies. Is that to much or do you think that is just right?

Thank You

i think home made cookies or baked good of somesort would be great....if you want to stay with him you might have to bare with it for now but hes a big boy and an adult now and needs to start acting like one...ask him what hes so afraid of.

Give him some time. He may not be ready to tell his parents. It's possible he wants to wait until you've been together for a while. A month isn't very long for him to get to know you as a girlfriend. He'll tell them in time; be patient with him. Don't pressure him about it- that may push him away.

As for the gift, I think it's a good idea. A gift that is made has more thought put into it than something you grab off a shelf.

The Valentines gift sounds just right for the amount of time you two have been together. As for telling his parents, it is still very early in the relationship and maybe he doesn't want to share the newness with them just yet. My Son would not tell me if he was dating someone new until he wanted to bring her home for dinner. That sometimes wasn't for quite a few weeks. It doesn't mean he doesn't care enough for you, just that there is a lot going on at the start. Happy Valentines day. All the best.

Well thats his choice whether he tells his parents or not. Its hard for you but if he tells his parents then you guys might be over. There is nothing you can really do about it because thats his choice.

About the valentines day thing. The card is great and the cookies! Oh what basically all guys like is a nice picture frame with the 2 of you in it! I hope you guys have a great valentines!
