Your long-term partner decided to introduce you to his/her family. You have a pleasant personality so you are sure that they will like you. When you finally met your partner's family, you can see disappointment and disapproval on their faces. Of course, you are sad. So what would be the best thing to do after this?

I think I won't be able to talk to my partner after I let what happened sink in. I was so confident that they will like me yet all my confidence came crumbling down. For me, the best thing to do after this is to have an alone time, away from my partner and his family.
-
What? You are becoming a drama queen over there. The best thing to do is to directly ask your partner what went wrong. Did I wear the wrong outfit or something?
-
Okay, and then? What would you do after all of your dramas in life? Lol.
-
Have time alone for how long? It could not be that you would take a long time in solitude.
-
-
That is truly saddening. But what I will do is to make them like me. I will do everything that I can to change their impression of me. They have only met me once and I will surely impress them when I meet with them again.

I'm kinda thinking this one on a wrong way lol It's like they don't like my face or what I look like haha. If this happens to me then I will call out my bf just a bit and ask him what seems to be the problem and the reason of their sad faces

That's the important thing is to ask what the problem is coming from the mouth of your boyfriend perhaps they are not sensing you enough or I might agree on your looks maybe
-
Lol. Honestly, it could be your face. You are pretty and all, but could it be that they had thought that you were a bitch? Ooopppsss.

Maybe you did not meet their expectations. Yes, that hurts but if that's the case, you can't do anything about it. But what you can do is that you can prove to them that you have other things to offer other than what they saw during your first meeting.

I bet my partner didn't notice this so I will tell him about it. In that way, he will be the one to ask his family why they acted that way. And maybe if he loves me that much, he will convince them to change their perception about me.

If that's the case, they might not like your personality even though you think that you have one. Not all people think and perceive in the same way.

Wait, why don't they just give you a chance to express your true self before they'd get to judge or see you just like that? You can be more or you can do more. Convince your partner that his parents haven't got to know you better in the long run.
-
Not all people will like you even the parents of the person that you love most. If you cannot impress them then just continue being respectful towards them, also to your boyfriend.
-

I would get mad, but I won't show to them that I got mad. There must be a reason and I need to know that one by asking my boyfriend. I am sure that he knows that answer to why his family did not like me.

Kinkytime if that were me, I'd let it pass if his parents do not like me, besides, how can I be so sure that he really is the one for me? I shouldn't be expecting more from this relationship that we both have since his parents don't seem to like me at all.
-
Mmm, are you sure that you wore your makeup properly at the time of the introduction? If yes, have you looked up yourself in front of the mirror and liked what you saw? Lol.
Comment

Wow, so the parents did not like you because of your crooked mascara or overlined lipstick? They sure are concerned more about how a woman appears to be. Isn't it clear that a woman wears makeup on to impress other people and now that they have makeup on, they're still not impressed? Just, wow. Okay, I may be overreacting but there truly are some people that are not truly impressed with makeup and all that shit being put on their faces.
-
I won't let his family's impression on me get in the middle of our relationship. I will let it go. Besides, I am in a relationship with their son and not with them.
Comment
-
Wait, maybe you look matured enough for their young son? Lol, I don't know, if the parents wears a disappointed facial expression, maybe they might have seen you somewhere with someone and now you're dating their son already, so, consider that maybe?
Comment
-
LOL, that's way too harsh but could be speaking the truth as to why the parents do not approve of this kind of relationship for their son. But what did they say about loving someone? Would age still matter up to this day? Maybe, some parents are still old fashioned and know what's best for their kids.
-
-
I think they're just testing me by putting up with that kind of face to get me thinking that they do not like me for their daughter. Okay, it is given if they do not like me but I will never lose my respect towards them because soon they will learn to accept me for their daughter.
Comment
-
Or not. Lol. Sometimes, they would keep their beliefs on, and they could disown their own daughter for not heeding their disapproval.

ManlyBeardMan so it that new to you? I don't think so, it usually happens when a man is introduced to his partner's parents. Especially the dad, yep, he's going to seriously look at you even dead in the eye which probably would make you look away in fear, lol. Her parents are really testing you, obviously.
-
You are such an understanding person, I am sure the girl would be so in love with you. ManlyBeardMan

They disapproved because obviously you did not pass their qualifications. Since you failed already, it is best to breakup with that boyfriend as you would not have a good life if other important people in his life do not want you.
Comment
-
Breakup immediately? Would you like to ask why they made a disapproval before deciding to have the breakup?
-
That's true. If his family does not approve of you being his girlfriend, there's a chance that they will separate the two of you and before that happens, it's better if you should just breakup with him.
-
-
Disappointed and disapproval. Those two words are heartbreaking. For me, I would not insist myself to be liked anymore. But still, I would not break up my boyfriend. We would still be together.

Yeah I agree, we don't need to push it if we think that we are not meant to be. AlignerAlive

Yeah, it's their choice tho. and I won't blame anyone if I will be in that situation. jerda201

Of course, who am I to blame anyone? AlignerAlive

Well, I don't think that I have a rotten kind of personality, so what gives? Why is it that his parents are a bit too harsh on me? I know that my boyfriend loves me and I haven't done him wrong but is it necessary for his parents to act up like this on me?
Comment
-
I'm expecting that your parents will act up the same as his parents do to you when you'd introduce him soon. I think it's just that those parents are giving you the fear that you should be careful not hurting their son's feelings, some shit like that.
-
Go ask your boyfriend about it halfSlut23. I think that he has an idea as to why his parents have been acting that way towards you.
