Question

What would you do if your fiance didn't have your parents blessings?

Answer 1

talk to them

depending their reason, me and my parent thinks very alike though so if they had an issue i would listen to why, to take that into consideration if they learned something i hadnt before making a final descision

as is i luckily dont have that problem, but i hope things sort themself out for you and your guy

Answer 2

Well guys I didn't really have my wifes parents blessing because I had known her parents for about 20 plus years and her for 6 before we got (MARRIED) and we still got married with out there blessings the best part was her parents and my dad didn't show so 3 less mouths to feed more money to save any now it is good we been married almost 2 years.

Answer 3

Do they have objections that are reasonable to most people -

that is, based on his moral fiber, his ability to provide, his stability, his maturity, his character, his treatment of you.

or are they based on prejudice against a certain type.

If they had a reasonable objection, I'd have to take a long look at things.  Love puts rose colored glasses on you - you can't help it - it's a physiological fact.  But eventually they come off - then where will you be.

Answer 4

My parents are intelligent, wise, liberal people, so if they had had strong reservations about my now husband I would have luistened very carefully to what they had to say.

Answer 5

Well, I sure would have known by the time we were dating for a while whether my family liked him or not.

By the time my husband went to talk to my mom (my father had passed away already), she totally loved him already, as did all my siblings and their families!

Family knows you best, truly, so I would surely take their feelings and opinions into serious account. Love CAN be blind.

Answer 6

My parents didn't like my husband because he's half-asian, so their opinion was irrelevant :/

Answer 7

Talk to your parents - find out why.  They may have some good reasons why (or, maybe not why, but why now).  Parents are not the old idiots some of you think.  They have been through love, marriage, kids.  Maybe they think you (or your guy) should finish school, or need to be a little more mature  I'm sure if you sat down and talked with them, and reacted to what they say with a mature attitude, it would help your cause.  Show them you are an adult - take what they say to heart.  

Answer 8

Life would go on as normal. I am an adult and so is he so he has no need to ask anyone's blessing or permission to marry me.

Answer 9

Tell my parent to **** themselves. Who's life is it...theirs? s***w them.

Answer 10

Talk to them, and see what is on their mind.  

Answer 11

Talk to them.....  

Answer 12

Be mindful of their opinions. Step back and take a serious, objective look at the relationship. Forget he makes your panties wet. Is he a mature, respectful man who has worked at charming your folks? Does he make plans and work for the future, or does he spend his time with 'the boys' and his money on cars and other toys. Be mindful also that the things that attract people in a courtship have the opposite effect when you are living together.
