That is a place to start, but it is not the only needed agreement. The one thing you all have in common is: you love him/her. You, your significant other, and their parents must be able to find a middle ground for things to get any better. But improvement requires a compromise on everyone's part. But the truth is, some situations do have hope for improvement. I'm aware that a lot of what is written here makes me seem like a jaded, bitter crone with no hope at all. And you will begin to resent them because you will constantly feel that you come second to their parents in any disagreement.ģ0 Things Aries Does When They Have a Crush on You 4. The problem is, how long do you think it will take before fights and resentment arise due to your strained relationship with his or her parents? If they love their parents, they will begin to resent you for not feeling the same, or for trying to pull them apart. You will take one for the team and become a martyr for that love. So if you know you can't stand them in the dating phase, why would you devote your life to that sort of stress and misery? The answer for many is love. Any husband or wife that loathes their in-laws will tell you that holidays are miserable, blood pressure levels spike whenever they hear the phone ring, and they become great at finding reasons NOT to visit them. How easy can a relationship be when you can't stand each other's parents? It doesn't really matter what your reasons for hating them are. It sounds very harsh to say that this is more important, but let's be brutally honest. But when an overbearing parent doesn't like you, the relationship can be doomed. Sure, at some point in any serious relationship, it becomes pretty important that their parents at least ACCEPT you, and life is much easier when they like you. When one or both parents refuse to admit that their child has grown up, it becomes about ten times more important that they like you than in normal dating circumstances. I'm willing to bet that a large majority of those who will read this have experienced this, or are experiencing it now. It is actually quite common, especially when you date an only child.

I know now that I was not the only one to experience this. So when I started a relationship with a man whose mother refused to admit that he was 22 and not 12, I was completely beside myself with confusion and frustration. He lets me make my own choices, and therefore my own mistakes. He has always been pleasant to anyone I dated, no matter how they looked or what he actually thought of them. I have been pretty lucky because my father never, ever told me who I could and could not date. I thought this question only pertained to high schoolers because of the parents' ability to prevent their children from dating certain people.
