Question Posted Wednesday January 8 2020, 10:15 pm
Ok so I am 30 years old and I have been talking to this 41 year old guy that I met on plenty of fish. We have only been talking a little over 2 months . He has already met my mom and stepdad . He is a really good guy. The problem is my mom told my aunt and cousin about him and now they are saying they want to meet him already. I think 2 months is a little to soon for him to meet my whole family. U want to take things slow and not rush into anything. Is 2 months to soon for him to meet them . How will I know when the time is right ? Thank you.

If you both start dating, thats good enough reason to come along with you to any family get togethers. My daughters had whomever they were dating, were a couple with, come to any family gatherings by asking first. Some gatherings may be only for family. But if family is open to you bringing along a boyfriend, then its fine. Just tell the family that you don't plan to have all of them meet some one you aren't even dating yet. The fact your Mom did is just a one time occurance. When you are dating, you will be asking if you can bring a boyfriend to the cousins birthday party, etc. And then they can meet him. Before I met my second husband I dated another guy for a short time before we both found the person we wanted to marry, not each other. However he was a real nice guy and all my daughters liked him and still have him as a friend on facebook as well as I. My husband got a chance to meet hin too when both of them helped me move in to live with my new husband. No secrets here. Btw, I met my second husband on plenty of fish. I met others on line who sounded great but I discovered stuff I didn't like or they know I wouldn't tolerate from our online stuff. But in person, they can't hide it as well so I suggest if someone sounds good on line and distance isn't a barrier such as two states apart, then bring the friendship into real life and see if there is anything that can be more than friends. YOu'll learn faster that way. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]

I think if you're in a relationship with him then it's normal for your family to want to meet him but just make sure he's fine with it first.
