The trouble is, for me, is that he hasn't told him parents, or his family about me, so I can't pop round to his house in case they are in. I would like some oppinions really about whether i am over reacting if i feel that he should have told them about me by now. I'm not happy about his secretiveness about me. He says that the reason he doesnt tell them about me is that he doesnt want the many questions he's likely to get about me, and also he likes his privacy and doesnt like his parents knowing all about his life. He also has said that he's introduced ex's to his family before and ended up with egg on his face because the relationship ended after that and he doesnt want that to happen, but i love him and i want our relationship to grow. Any thoughts would be appreciated about this situation and also how long should it be before introducing someone to family? Thanks Reply to this Question Share |

There's nothing set in stone about meeting someone's family for the first time. So I'd just let him take his time as long as you truly know he lives with his parents. Married guys have pulled this trick you know.

What about if you just arrive at his house and introduce yourself??
Usually when a person doesnt want the gf/bf around the family it is because that person is in somewhy attached to a spouse....
Are you positive he is not married?
