Telling the Parents

[night2rmbr]

I'm just curious... Is it a big deal when a guy tells his parents about his new girlfriend? My boyfriend just told me that he told his parents about us. I've never asked him if they knew about us, he just came out and told me.

 

Is there a hidden meaning behind all of this?

 

By the way, he's 35 and I'm 26, so it's not like we need permission...

 

I should also add that he is very close to his family, and sees them on a regular basis, and also talks to them on a daily basis.

I'm assuming you've been dating a while....If he is telling his parents about you, then he likes you and sees potential in your relationship.

Men don't tell their folks about someone they aren't serious about.

Well thats what I think anyways...

Nevermind.

if a guy talks about you to his family,specially mom...then yeah he sees you as serious relationship material

It's all relative (pun intended). Some people share everything with there parents, while others hide everything from them. It's certainly not a bad thing. He wouldn't bother telling his parents about you if he was intending on dumping you anytime soon, and he may even be quite proud of your relationship. The fact that he volunteered this information suggests that he's wanting you to know that he's committed to your relationship.

Yeah it is a good sign...even though I am only 23, when I tell my parents about a certain girl or want them to meet her then it is a very very good sign that I like her and see a serious relationship with her.

It's definitely a good sign that he sees a future with you
