Would it be a deal breaker if you didn’t like/didn’t get along with your partner’s parents?

What about if your parents didn’t like your partner?

[ArrowheadSW]

I am not dating anyone at the moment. But I think if it was extreme, that it could be a dealbreaker. Let's face it, at some point in time or another, they are going to be around. If they were real weird, crazy, or toxic, it could be a dealbreaker for the relationship.

well, I am not in a relationship with her parents...

never been in this situation but I think it would not be a pleasing experience, yet... I would still try to be in a relationship with her... and not her parents, lol

[IslaTheWitch]

Not my experience, hard even to imagine...

But in the end, the relationship is not about parents. The worst case scenario would be probably to avoid not necessary family gatherings. Whatever that works for us and doesn't break his relationship with his parents.

Depends on the reason why I didn’t like or get along with them. If they were belittling me or putting me down over small things, then yes that would be a deal breaker if my partner did not stand up for me.

[RageBabe]

Not a deal-breaker, but I would be quite upset since I believe that maintaining a good relationship with my partner's parents is crucial to ensuring that he is comfortable and not under any additional stress.

Not unless they're from some ultra-familial culture or something. I'm so utterly detached from my own family I can't really relate to people whose past family remains a part of their life to the point of getting a say in how it goes.

I had one girlfriend whose parents weren't particularly fond of me when I was younger, but that was the only time.

[sheikalana]

No. I’m married to my husband not his parents or family. I only deal with them on certain occasions. Don’t have to see them every day.

[TacosRAwesome]

Depends on how often I have to deal with them.

[Kaneki05]

Not really. I ain't dating them so I don't have to like them.

[Anpu23]

Not for me. Neither of my wifes parents and I really get along.

[Staximus]

If she had a good relationship with them and they didn't like me then that would probably wouldn't work out well

[EmpressAJ]

No unless he allowed them to disrespect me or be rude to me.

[Nice222]

Yes it was pretty much a requirement that my girlfriend got along with my family.

[Anonymous]

I can't stand her parents I only tolerate those fucking backstabbers for her sake

[SphynxUK]

Not really. I’m not dating them am I.

[KittygosMeoWW]

Yes, I learned that lesson with my bd

[LavLavLuv]

Yes.
