Why he keeps me a secret?

[golden]

He does not introduce me to his family or invites me to the family events that we can go together. We are in a serious relationship. Why he keeps me as a secret? When I ask him he does not accept that.

That sounds like a tough situation to be in, and it’s totally valid to feel concerned about it. If your partner isn’t introducing you to his family or including you in important gatherings, it can definitely make you question where you stand in the relationship.

There could be a few reasons why he might be keeping your relationship more on the down-low. Sometimes, cultural or family expectations can make someone hesitant to introduce their partner. It's possible he's worried about family approval or there might be other personal or family issues he hasn't shared yet.

Pay attention to whether he's willing to take steps towards making you feel more included. If he continues to avoid the topic or doesn’t acknowledge your feelings, you might need to consider if this relationship meets your needs and expectations.

Does he intentionally keep it a secret?

Just to put some context to my question, introducing girlfriends to my family is something I never even considered. Like why should I? My family never knew what I did or who I dated. There was simply no reason to tell them.

Maybe to you it's something important. But to him there is no reason to.

Serious relationship? Is he as serious about as you? How long have you two been together? Men are usually at different stages of of a relationship than women are. So you may think k it’s serious whereas he thinks you’re barely getting to know each other. Now if it’s been years chances are he’s not as serious about you as you think it is.

Some people are just really private. I don’t ever plan on introducing my boyfriend to my parents. I feel like it’s none of their business. I don’t even think I’ll tell them if I ever get married 🤷‍♀️

I recently learned that my mom didn’t even tell her parents about my dad until after they married by sending them a copy of her marriage certificate in the mail.

How long have you been together? Some people just take a little longer to introduce their S. O. to their family

How long are you together. I showed my girlfriend after year or so. Also i met hers after the second year i had no problem with that. Some people are more private. But most importantly how long?

If you discovered he is married would it take you long to figure out how he finds the time? If not I have sad news..

What do you mean he keeps you a secret? His family doesn't know he's in a relationship with you? And what do you mean by family events that you both can go together.

Private life is private. My parents have met my wife maybe 3 times in nearly 20 years. They have seen their grand children once.

[poshspice123]
