Why do my parents dont want me to date?

Sometimes your parents dont want you to date because of your cultural background or religious reasons. In these cases, it may be harder (or impossible) to change their mind. Saying things like “times have changed” may not be the best way to persuade your parents, even though it may be true.

What do you do if your parents dont want to date you?

“Be very clear with your parents that this is your choice, not theirs,” Tessina said. “See them on occasion without your S.O., and tell nice stories about how great you two are doing. Cut contact down with your parents until they realize they have to accept your choice.”

What do you do when your parents wont let you date your boyfriend?

Ask your parents if they would be willing to meet with your bf/gf and have them explain their reservations to him/her. If your bf/gf refuses to meet with your parents, thats a sure sign he/she is not respectful to you or your parents.
