6 Ways To Tell Your Parents About Him. by simdam500(m): 8:02am On Nov 28, 2013
It is not always an easy task to tell your parents about the person you are seeing. And introducing him to your parents can be nerve wrecking for more than one reason. Before you even go into introducing him, you need to settle the conflict within you to see if he is serious about you that he’d be ok being introduced. And more importantly you need to ask yourself if you think he is that important in your life that you would want him to be part of your family. And when you do introduce him finally after much deliberation you would keep wondering nervously and hoping that your parents would like him. It is always difficult to choose between your parents and your boyfriend, so it’s important that the way you introduce him is good and goes on smoothly. Here are a few ways you can tell your parents about him.
1. Take him home for dinner and make the introductions
This is the most simple and the most straightforward way. There is a chance that this may backfire as they may not like him, but it is also a great way as you can get it over with instead of thinking too much about it.
2. You can pass along the message through your siblings
You can either ask your siblings to do it for you or if they are not that type, you just tell them about your guy. They will surely let your parents know the next time they see them that you are going out with someone.
3. Telling them when they are in a good mood
Catch them in a good mood or when they are doing something that they really like. They wouldn’t want to spoil their fun so they would at the least listen to what you have to say and even agree to see him immediately.
4. Drop a few hints
Drop a few hints to let them know that you do other things apart from your routine. Like when they call you can tell them that you are with a friend instead of mentioning him by name. create the mystery factor so that they won’t be too shocked when you tell them that you are seeing him.
5. Tell your grandparents
No matter how old they are, your parents would still listen to your grandparents. And if you are close to your grandparents, you can pass it along to your parents through them.
6. Write to them
If you are shy or scared to tell your parents, go the old fashioned way and write a letter or send an email to let them know that there is someone in your life.
The truth is that it works for the best when you do it directly. When you have decided that he is the one who you are serious about, you should have the guts to take him home and introduce him to your parents. You stand by what you believe in and tell them straight away that you are seeing him.
