Parents' Opinion on Your Partner

No I never did when I married, it was the person I wanted to marry, although now I wish I could turn back time.

in some way i consider their opinion with regards to my husband but clouding my decision with regards to the man i should marry their opinion weight less because i know the person i should marry personally .it was me who spend alot of time with this man not them.But when i got married when they saw something that is not right of course their opinion matter big time because they already encounter the problems i am facing right now or at least some of it.

I think most people would like for their parents and their husband/wife to get along but I don't think their approval is needed. My parents weren't too sure about my husband at first, especially since I had already been married and divorced once but now they get along great.

I want to please my parents, and get their blessing the same time. But if they don't approve the person I love, I just don't know what I am going to do. To fight against their will, and satisfy my personal need, or sacrifice my love of life, and to please my parents? I don't really know what kind of advice I can give it to you. I am also facing such dilemma in life at the moment.

I care about what my parents think, though of course it wouldn't be the first on my list of things to take into consideration. This is my life and who I love is not going to be determined by my parents, but by my own feelings. My parents are usually fine with my boyfriends though, so it's never been an issue for me. But even if they did disapprove I would take it into consideration and ask him to be nicer to my parents and whatnot, but I would still love him and probably still marry him if it came to if I felt it was the right choice for me.

It depends on with stage you are also, if you are teenager who just new to this world, your parents will take action more on your partner. On the other hand, if you are growth up at certain age (depends on your parents point of views) they will accept what was your decision.

Dear friend, I feel their opinion matter in every matter, as long as they do want to see their children better. I feel it better to get the main choice by oneself accepted by parents. Parents help is always needed both morally and financially. To chose a person to live with I feel entirely with those who are going to live together, provided they should be able to take a mature decisions.

i don't think so. they told me they didnt like my first bf but i still pursue. but it's good to know that they like my new bf. at least there is no constraint with my emotion

Their opinion doesn't matter to me. They should trust me because they raised me well. They should know that I know the perfect guy for me and for them. It's my life and I am mature enough to decide my own life. I want them to support me even though it's a mistake. At least I'll learn.
