Author	Thread: What do y'all think?
bcpianogal View Profile History	What do y'all think? Posted : 24 May, 2011 07:51 PM What do you all think about this? Guys and girls can answer! Here's a hypothetical situation: A girl and guy meet on a dating site, and even though they get to be good online friends, they never actually date each other. The great distance between them makes meeting nearly impossible. After a year of online chats, they get to meet in person, but only for a couple hours. Another year of friendship goes by, this time the online communication is joined by long phone conversations and Skype sessions. They have the chance to meet again, and make plans to get together for a few hours. The question is: Should the guy meet the girl's family, and vice versa? Imagine that it would be very easy to do so, and that interest in meeting has been expressed on all sides (guy, girl, his family, and her family). Also, keep in mind that even though they are good friends, there is no dating relationship. Both families know this. I know what I think about this situation, but I want to know YOUR take on it!

Posted : 25 May, 2011 12:17 PM I wouldn't have a problem with them meeting my parents per se, but unless I was dating the other person, I wouldn't make it a formal "meet the parents" type thing - just a causal meeting if they happen to be over at mine when the other arrived. In short, keep it informal the same way as if you were in town with the other person (a grocery store, let's say?) and you happened to bump into another friend of yours there. Post Reply

I'm praying that this relationship might be more than a friendship for you. I'd like to see you meet someone- I know you've been struggling with some intense emotions lately. I hope your next emotion is happiness. :glow: Post Reply

bcpianogal View Profile History	What do y'all think? Posted : 28 May, 2011 08:11 PM Dennis, you crack me up! Thanks for the input everyone. At this point it's looking like we'll get to spend three days (well, one morning, one evening, and a full day...three days in a row) together, so I'm looking forward to that. Since we are just friends, it'll all be very casual and low-pressure! Post Reply
