Does parent have a say in whom you are dating?
-
Just want to get opinions...if your parents are against whom you are dating currently, would you still go out with him/her? Or you would break up with them on the account of respect for your parents...and since they are older, they are more experienced in this area?
-
I will not break off lah.
If she's good... I will make my parents see her good side. Can't judge a person too soon mah.... besides, I believe I'm old enough to make my own decision. -
What if your parents are the idealist sort, who thinks no one can be good enough for you...unless it is them who go around to find someone who fits the bill perfectly...Originally posted by X-men:I will not break off lah.

My parents, especially my mom, are very stubborn when it comes to big decision...so maybe would have to get into arguments with them before they can relent...last time they threatened to disown me if I ever disobey them...sigh...
-
i don't have this issue lah. my parents are always very supportive....
but if they object, they will surely tell me why. I should listen to them.. maybe they are right since they are older and wiser.....
But after that i will make my own decision.....
Don't go against parents for its own sake.... listen to them first.... -
not a bit.

I guess I have been taught to listen to them, to obey no matter what...Originally posted by tut4nkh4m3n:well at least you still have the filial side, you care what your parents think.

I can't wait till I start working... -

But my parents will make me very unhappy over this de...they will argue and fight with me over my decision... in the end they will make me feel even more confused than ever...Originally posted by shinta:well, u're the one who's gg to face him for the rest of ur life..

either way, you can't get the best of both sides, definitely 1 side will get upset. it's just which side means more to you, that, only you know the answer.Originally posted by rainee:But my parents will make me very unhappy over this de...they will argue and fight with me over my decision... in the end they will make me feel even more confused than ever... -
I definitely want to be with him...but I feel a bit guilty if I were to argue with my parents over this lor...but if I don't argue my life long happiness will be at stake...Originally posted by tut4nkh4m3n:either way, you can't get the best of both sides, definitely 1 side will get upset. it's just which side means more to you, that, only you know the answer. -
there you go, you know what to do, you have to fight dude.Originally posted by rainee:I definitely want to be with him...but I feel a bit guilty if I were to argue with my parents over this lor...but if I don't argue my life long happiness will be at stake...
it's obvious which side you're on, you just gotta keep the blow to your parents as small as possible. actually your parents should learn to accept him unless there's something about him that keeps them worrying.
what is it? -
my mom does that all the time.. and when she does, i'd shed a couple of tears in front of her... ( i dun usually cry or shed tearsOriginally posted by rainee:My parents, especially my mom, are very stubborn when it comes to big decision...so maybe would have to get into arguments with them before they can relent...last time they threatened to disown me if I ever disobey them...sigh...

den run away from home
kinda stupid for a 21 year old to still be doin that -
They want a "perfect" man for me, but they have yet to accept the fact that nobody is perfect. I love him but I can see that he is not perfect but I have learned to accept his flaws, but I don't know if my parents can...Originally posted by tut4nkh4m3n:there you go, you know what to do, you have to fight dude.

Hi. I have seen friends around me that their pareents used to oppose to their relationships. But as time goes by, their parents slowly got used to it & gradually accepted it. I think its a matter of time lah..
