What do you think
| Wed, 11-23-2005 - 11:49am |
Hello,
Would you be mad if your bf that you've been seeing for four months now, did not invite to his family house for Thanksgiving dinner? If so, would you mention to him that you were kinda hoping to go and see what his response is and take it from there?
btw- his parents just recently sepearated and this would be the first time that I would meeting them .
Thanks,
Ravishing

In ordinary circumstances, I would be questioning his commitment to me if I had not met his family at 4 months. DH and I are both family orientated and had met each other's families within a few weeks of dating each other.
However, as his parents have recently separated, I'd be inclined to think that he could be waiting for family emotions to calm before bringing you into the family. This Thanksgiving may not have been very pleasant for the family.
What I do question is why he didn't discuss this with you. If he had made this decision, it would have been only right to say "I wish I could take you, but with the divorce and all, I want to let things settle down a bit"

Good Luck,

Actually, I did Xmas with my husband's family when I'd only known him for 3 months. It seemed like the most natural thing in the world. DH's family are crazy too but in a good way. Lots of talking over each other and endless enthusiasm.
(I can't speak for Thanksgiving because we don't do it in Australia. But I would assume that it's similar to Xmas with having all the extended family around)
