OK the question is who should ride in the front with me? In the way back that answer is simple my wife/girlfriend, mom came to visit she rides on the back mom will always be mom she is not coming to take my wife/girlfriend place and my wife or girlfriend did not usurped my mom's place so simple how things are and should be.

Get the mum and girlfriend to sit together at the front. This symbolises that both are equally important to you. Also I have a good relationship with both women, so I want them to develop a good one between them. 👧🏻🤷🏽ββοΈ👧🏽
I always sit in the front unless I'm forced to be sit in the back. I hate sitting in the back there's no place and I feel like I'm suffocating (I have claustrophobia and being in the back stress me a lot).
Spouses ride up front. It shows that they are a solid couple and that they are in charge as co equals.

They should both sit in the back and chat among eachother Nd let the driver drive and do the important job of any person of class and load unload any luggage and hold the doors for the ladies and take position behind the wheel with the passengers in rear then there is no feeling of priority over one another or any thing as they both have received equal treatment and that is what a wise man does a happy wife is a Happy Life and if your mother is happy as well then even better there is a reason behind being polite and chilvery other then trying to look like a gentleman it's just one of those things that make people feel more content as a man the smartest thing you can do is to never give your wife or girlfriend or mother anything over eachother and they will get along better making your life easier that's why ladies first the man holds open the door for all the ladies then they both got the same then that's why formally anyways the man asks each woman at the table what they would like to order and for that reason allow the son to make his order himself it's not so much a sexist thing it was a way to make all the ladies feel as they are equally important and have less hurt feelings after all did you ever see your grandparents fighting and squabbling over things people have just gotten so caught up in the whole sexist/feminism/chauvinist thing that people forgot the answer to the simple answers to these common sense questions so I hope you can apply this answer to many things and use your manners for what they were made to do and that is to make everyone feel respected so man up and drive I. The front alone you shouldn't want any distractions after all your wife and mother are in the back seat
My boyfriend often has to pick up his mom from doctor appointments and such. I have offered to sit in the back but both my boyfriend and his mother are ok with her in the back. I she already knows me well though and likes me. I would say it depends on how well the guys family knows his partner. It's also polite to offer for the mom or grandma to have the front seat. Even if she declines, you'll look considerate and kind rather than coming across as snotty and selfish.
Man, have you ever picked someone up from the airport? They will tow your car doing the shenanigans you speak of. You pull up, they throw in their luggage to whatever seat is free and hop in next to it. Buckle up Granny! We're going down fury road!!!
Actually my grandma is a far more terrifying driver than I am. I didn't even think of her as someone to pick me up from the airport. I want to live to see my family.At the present time, both my grandmother and mother would probably ride in the back, and whoever owns the car will always be the driver. Now if for some reason the guest passenger has issues with mobility, the front seat is almost always easier to get into, so they would take priority.
Personally I don't really care where people choose to sit; the driver is all that matters.Thats a difficult one no cap. Couple weeks back I picked up my pops from the hospital and she rode in the back. Wasn't that big a fuss. But I haven't seen my grandma like in a decade now so lowkey she would ride in the front with me. Regardless I would assume my girl wouldn't be bother by that? When I give her grandma or uncle or aunt a ride she always rides in the back and seems she doesn't mind. Hell even when a friend comes along she automatically goes in the back seat
boyfriend drives, mum sits at the front. Cause she's mum. The girlfriend would want to be in good terms with her. (Specially if its their 1st time meeting, or if boyfriend is a momma's boy). And nana and girlfriend sit at the back. So they can have a friendly chat. In case mum doesn't like girlfriend too much, make sure nana approves if girlfriend so she can persuade mum to give girlfriend a chance. Lol.
Knowing mom, she immediately considers a woman in my life her daughter in law and starts treating her like her child. Last time I had to convince her the girl was just the pizza girl. You can imagine how she'll start reacting to the girlfriend. I'll just let them in the front and I'll play on my mobile.
It is respectful to offer your mum the front seat but supportive to your wife to offer your wife the front seat.
Which you choose is down to your relationship with both women and their respective expectations.I would insist the mother/grandma sits in the front... I guess cuz in bomy culture elders are considered to be given the most respect. So I would want my mom in law/grandma to sit in the front and I'll sit in the back.
I'll mostly go along with the ' guest gets shotgun privileges' rule that I have.
Other than that I think It depends on who's driving, if there's a ton of baggage and just the general situation as a whole.Your mom is your mom but your girlfriend or your wife is your girlfriend of your wife your mom gave birth to you your mom raised you but your wife or girlfriend is your significant other so she should be sitting next to you sorry Mama
I would want my mom/grandma to sit in the front, while either me or my boyfriend sits in the back. It's just common sense, the elders should be in the front out of respect. I would never let my mom or his mom sit in the back like that.
My wife/GF of course because sheβs my queen:) I love my mum but I think your wife/GF should come before any other women😊
I'd say the older person should ride in the front and I think it's ok for the girlfriend or wife to drive at that point
If we have to pick her Up from the Airport she probably lives far away and He doesn't see often. So I'd offer to sit in the Back or drive and they can sit in the Back to Catch up
With me and my partner, I tell his mom to sit in the front out of respect. My guy would prefer me to sit in the front but I was raised to know to respect the older generation.
Gawd. If a guy I was dating was picking up his mom or g-mom, I'D ELECT TO GET IN THE BACK without anyone having to ask. Come on, we can't have become THAT selfish yet, can we?
I voted A but it's only since my experience is that elderly people find it easier to enter or leave the front seat. Apart from that it doesn't matter :D
I usually drive but it wouldn't matter much who rode shotgun. It would depend on who wanted to. Most likely, my wife would. Then again, she might offer to ride in back.
grand ma gets the back seat thats my car rule, besides after a plane trip she can stretch out like she would on a couch with all the leg room. my wife or girlfriend would always be upfront.
