Title: Parents Post by: Anon on June 25, 2005, 04:00:00 AM Hey Guys,
I've posted here once before. Some have claimed I'm not truly interested in a Russian bride because of my name. That is not true - I simply wish to maintain my anonymity. If there's some way to prove I'm interested while maintaining my anonymity I'd do so but I can't find a way to do so. Anyway; I am in my mid-20s and I would like to begin my search in a couple years (I'm a long term-planner by nature). I have the usual overbearing parents. Does anyone have any supportive advice and/or stories on how to keep your parents positive about marrying someone from another country only months after having met? Thanks for any help.

I'm new to this site, been a looky-loo for a few years now. My parents aren't nosy, but that took time for that process to evolve,they had to grow up, mature(smile), but if they control you, you may not be ready for this venture, at least from the posts I've read here over the years.Good luck!

Your parents are only acting “overbearing” toward you because you let them. Are you living with your parents? Are they supporting you? If so, then I recommend that you get out and make your own life before you consider taking on the responsibility of a wife and family. When you decide who and when to marry, inform your parents politely but it’s YOUR decision, not theirs. If they don’t like it, that’s just too bad. And after you are married, ALWAYS take the side of your wife over your parents.

Who cares? You gotta live you own life. Here's my advice, for what it's worth: do what you're doing to do. If you want to tell them, then tell them. If you don't want to tell them, then don't tell them. It doesn't matter. Just don't let their reaction change your behavior. Are you really an adult? You're still worried if your parents are going to send you to your room without supper. The bigger problem for you is this: if you're not more of a man, the RW are going to eat you for lunch. |
