I’ve been with my boyfriend for over a year and haven’t meet his family? 🤔?

That's strange, maybe he's a little embarrassed. Does he talk about them?

[Asker]

yes and tells me they want all want to meet me. we’ll set up a day for me to meet them, then it never happens.

[OfMiceandMen]

Does he avoid commitment about other things?

[Asker]

there’s very few thing you can believe that comes out of his mouth. 95% of the time it’s a lie or he just said it to make me happy.

[OfMiceandMen]

Just curious, what makes you want to stay with him, if that is the case?

[Asker]

i don’t really know how to answer that question cause i ask that to myself a lot. emotional attachment mostly i think.

[Asker]

also worried, he said he’d get me pregnant if i ever try to leave him.

[OfMiceandMen]

I can see that, sometimes it's just nice to have someone, but, I am almost certain you can do better. At least someone that'll tell you the truth and not mind you meeting their parents.👍

[OfMiceandMen]

Not sure how he would get you pregnant if you just left? Leaving implies you're not there.

Maybe he's too shy or haven't made up the courage to introduce you yet. Slowly give him confidence enough to encourage him to introduce you to his family at his own convenience

Express your concern to him and let him take some time to plan it forward

[Asker]

we’ve talked about it, and he’ll tell me i’ll meet them and we’ll set up a day for me to meet them, then i never do.

Give him some time and don't expect sudden meetings. Remind him meanwhile while you wait for him to introduce you to his family. Maybe he was waiting for a right time to introduce you to them as not all the time is right. If he's not financially settled, he might wait till he gets financially settled to introduce you since most of the guys think that that's the right time. If he's not financially settled yet you can encourage him to get financially settled sooner so that he can be confident enough to take further responsibilities. Other than this reason, if he's just postponing always, let him understand that you cannot be able to wait much longer and put some love for him on hold till he introduces you to them. This would make him understand your concern

I have a girl 'friend" of almost 2 years, and neither one of us have met each others parents. She's "just a friend" though, right, girls? RIGHTTTTTT

[Asker]

he’s meet all my family and he knows meeting his family was important to me from the beginning. i’m not here to be “just friends”

[mommymommymommy]

I was being sarco hun

[Asker]

oh lol, sorry

[mommymommymommy]

Yeah

[Lowiu]

Do they live far away?

[Asker]

no he doesn’t

[Lowiu]

Like do you know if he has exes he introduced to them? Else he might be super nervous about his first girlfriend

[Asker]

I’m not sure, ex’s aren’t really something he ever bring up.
