Do you think meeting each other’s family/friends is important in relationships? (Page 2)

[red324]

I think so. The question is when does this happen typically?

[On_cloud_wine]

When do you think it should happen?

[red324]

@On_cloud_wine like 3 months in

[On_cloud_wine]

I feel like that’s too soon..

[red324]

@On_cloud_wine funny how we can have sex on the first date but meeting the family after 3 months is too soon. I don't usually get much past 3 months with a girl so... lol

[On_cloud_wine]

Sex is just skin, it’s physical, especially on the first date!. Like “you can have my body but you can’t have my heart” sex. There’s no love. Family is love. You cray cray if you get down and dirty with a girl first thing then have you meet your family.

One reason I stay away from hopeless romantics.

[red324]

@On_cloud_wine Do you know what cuffing season is?

[On_cloud_wine]

Yup.. a short fling of companionship to help warm you up with those winter blues

[On_cloud_wine]

How is this relevant?

[red324]

@On_cloud_wine I thought it was a period of time a month or two before the winter holidays where people find a date to bring home for Thanksgiving or Christmas

[On_cloud_wine]

Basically what I said. I’m not trying to impress my family or show off anyone to them or give them an explanation as to why I’m single. Do you do this?

[red324]

@On_cloud_wine oh so people do go and pickup someone just to have someone for the holidays? No I don't care about this. I've never been with a girl during the holidays, never had a girl during valentines day etc.

[OddBeMe]

Yes if only to see what hell you’d be walking into if you get married.

[DiegoO]

It's pretty common, unless your friends are not be trusted to that extend.

[In_Trance]

I think the older you get the less important it becomes

[driven159]

it will help with moving forward in your relationship

[msc545]

sure - if you stick together, you will run into them eventually anyway...

[Alex8736]

If it's just a booty call then no but if it's something developing over time then yes. Just saying

[Lizam]

Because sometimes the family gets too much involved and sometimes they tend to try to control things

[Nisabennn]

Yeah, absolutely. If he really cares me, he wanna talking about me with his loved ones.

[Anonymous]

No because My family is a bunch of Psychopaths. Being a psychopath Runs in the Family. I’m not a psychopath but I learned how to Shut my emotions off when I was Younger. The Guilt was so Bad I Shut my emotions off.

[loveslongnails]

You really need an explanation as to why it's important?

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Nope, I don’t need an explanation, I just like to hear peoples perspective… Because everyone has different reasonings for why they think it is important, or why they don’t think it’s important.

[loveslongnails]

Well I'm just kinda of shocked that anyone would think its NOT important if you're in any kind of real relationship. The only way it wouldn't be is if the person is estranged from their parents or not speaking with them at all. Don't you think?

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Well, I personally think it’s important, given my answer in the description, however, some people think otherwise and it’s not my place to judge how others go about their relationship and involvement of in laws/family.

[Redhead999]

Absolutely even if they don't get on

[WhitneySnow]

It’s definitely important

[kinkyoldman]

That's why I dated and married my sisters best friend.

[JakeS00]

It’s certainly important on both ends.

[blondfrog]

Yes unless their family sucks lol.

[Staximus]

If you are at all serious about each other, yes.

[Lisa0203]

Yeah if they are in contact. 🤗🤗

[Wise4myage]

Yes, most definitely.

[RobEurope]

Yes so you have more context.

[petitedollbabee]

Definitely.

[Anonymous]

That's very important.

[TrillXHippy]

Yeah it is

[imfreeze95]

Shows you’re serious

[Samdaman4785]

Absolutely

[Kirankumarnaidu]

Yes maybe

[AFretiredTXn]

Yes.
