I prefer that there are a few years between my partner and my father.BeautyinBaltimorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04213041285476494126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-35075546426247700252007-05-01T02:34:00.000-04:002007-05-01T02:34:00.000-04:00Honestly, my mother would have the same reaction a...Honestly, my mother would have the same reaction and she is normally overwhelmingly supportive of my choices. <BR/><BR/>I think you should give her some time to come to terms with your relationship. There's no guarantee that she'll ever agree with it or accept it but as long as she still loves you and is there for you, that's what counts.Mahogany Misfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18221007561742437451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-70607149137788841852007-04-30T20:17:00.000-04:002007-04-30T20:17:00.000-04:00J.A.C.- Glad you feel me.

I'm dating a guy who is not of my faith, which is a huge deal in my family. They've met him over the phone and they've even agreed to get to know him, but knowing that I don't have my parents utmost approval bothers me a little. Like blu said, it's ultimately my decision and my happiness, but life would be 10% better if my parents were on the same page as I.jendayihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284491770040011453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-91057429166278446652007-04-30T11:14:00.000-04:002007-04-30T11:14:00.000-04:00Blu- Your words always help!!!You're right I have ...Blu- Your words always help!!!<BR/><BR/>You're right I have to do me, and right now I'm feeling Mr. Godiva. <BR/><BR/>Mom will get over this just like any thing else I've done in my life..LOLMs. Confessionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040573830472726532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-27522258213386429992007-04-30T08:04:00.000-04:002007-04-30T08:04:00.000-04:00We all want parental approval to some degree, but ...We all want parental approval to some degree, but the bottom line is that you still have to do you. Your happiness and his ability to provide that and some stability is what should be the most important. My stepmom is like 7-8 years my senior and obviously in my peer group and while it does seem odd that i call her "mom", she makes my dad hapy and her treats her well, so it's all good in my book. He on the other hand seems to have an issue if i dated a younger man, but again, that's entitled opinion, but it would never be enough to make me NOT do something that made me happy.<BR/><BR/>Not sure if that helped, but i hope it did.Blu Jewelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09850562981453356321noreply@blogger.com
