Dating Dilemma: Didn’t meet the family?
Keith is trying to reassure the woman he is dating after he decided not to introduce her to his family at Thanksgiving. They are in a new relationship and things were not at the “meet the family” stage…according to him. She is seeing this as rejection and is now questioning everything and second guessing her feelings about him.
I feel for her, I really do, but she seems to be overreacting and over analyzing the situation. Shocking, right? So yeah, women are known to do this and it isn’t really fair. When Keith is actually being a good guy by taking things slow and not giving her false hope, she is letting insecurities show.
Would it bother you if the person you were dating has yet to introduce you to his inner circle of family/friends? I remember meeting families really early in relationships, but I didn’t think that was a sign of how much the guy liked me. Is meeting the family still viewed as a big deal like it was back in the day?

For me, meeting the family is just like meeting anyone else, don’t see the big deal in it!

Good Morin,
I don’t see the big deal why she has to wait, is his family special–are they afraid of the common people walking around? If they are in a relationship she should of met someone!! So what is he afraid of? If they are out and about and his family is also in the same place, is he going to push her away and run because they are not “at that stage yet”.. honestly i don’t know what the big deal is. Grow-up. And she doesn’t need to get all up-set over it either–it might be a blessing she hasn’t met the family

I think that we don’t have enough information to make a decision regarding this situation. How long have they been together? Are they smashing? Does his family live in the same city and is he close to them? All of those things would be factors for me re: meeting the family.
With the hubs, I met his family when we were still friends, so it was a non-issue. I was actually better friends with my SILs than I was with him.

I would also want to know how long they had been together. If they have been dating for two months, no big deal; however, if they have been dating for two years, then that is cause for concern.

I think the guy in today’s post need to grow up. No such thing as “meet the parents” stage. Seriously. We’re all adults. I hate to lean on it but here I go again. If you can interact and call yourself in a relationship, if we’re intimate and doing things all together and stuff, THAT IS THE MEET THE PARENTS STAGE…IJs. This woman should get a clue.
Personally, I don’t see the hype and “having to wait” to meet the parents. I’m not on stage for anyone, not even my boo
Not in this regard. All of this reeks of “eons ago.” It’s like (seeing through this dude’s eyes), getting to the “meet the parents” stage translates: “You done good!!” Ummm, NOT!
How I see it now? It’s just an introduction. I’m not one either that’s sweating meeting folks and stuff but I’m offended if you feel the need to “wait and see.” If we’re interacting and your family (as well as mine) is apart of your life, it should be a given that I’m going to meet some folks. I ain’t sticking around to tapdance and if I do it good enough, THEEEEN I get the priviledge of meeting your innercircle. Nuh uh. That’s retarded. Don’t get me wrong, if you’re happy to bring me into the fold, for lack of a better term, so am I. But to hold off for whatever reason is whack.
If I was the lady in today’s post, I would be offended. Period…point blank. I would tell him too. I would also want to know what’s the issue??? If I’m apart of your life then I’m apart of it…all of it. Not “a part” but “apart”…IJS I would want to know “what are we waiting on??” While it’s not that deep if I do or don’t, because of his attitude on sensoring me, this would be a dealbreaker if he couldn’t hurry up and “splain” himself.

lol. celisea – you said a mouthful. I’ve actually had guys tell me “I can’t wait for you to meet so and so” and in my mind I was thinking “to heck with so and so”. I made a choice to live away from my own family and I’m not overly pressed to jump into the middle of someone else’s. just not my thing. I think a lot of guys dangle that “meet the friends/family” in front of women like it’s a golden carrot stick. like meeting the family is the prize. it means you’re in there. I don’t get it. I can take them or leave them.

disco/C~ But don’t you think that if you’re going to be with someone in the long term you need to be able to associate with their friends/family and they with yours? Holidays, family reunions, christenings, etc. would be very awkward if none of the family could tolerate each other… IJS.

CC – like I said, i don’t even see my own family on the regular. have only seen my son, mother and niece this year and the year is about gone.
leggs –
To dream of having a good neighbor signifies enjoyment and tranquility at home. If you dream of an angry or unfriendly neighbor, then it signifies dissension and disappointment. There is a waking issue that you need to address with your neighbor. Alternatively, the dream could mean relocation from your home. Perhaps you are in need of a change of scenery.
To see a camel in your dream denotes that you need to be more conservative; you are carrying too many responsibilities, burdens and problems on your shoulders. Consider the common phrase, “the straw that broke the camel’s back”. You tend to hold on and cling on to your emotions instead of expressing and releasing them. Learn to forgive and forget. Alternatively, the camel represents your stamina.
To dream that you are petting a camel indicates that you are ready to let go of some of the burdens, responsibilities or emotional baggage that you are carrying around.

Leggs~
Camels
To see this beast of burden, signifies that you will entertain great patience and fortitude in time of almost unbearable anguish and failures that will seemingly sweep every vestige of hope from you.
To own a camel, is a sign that you will possess rich mining property.
To see a herd of camels on the desert, denotes assistance when all human aid seems at a low ebb, and of sickness from which you will arise, contrary to all expectations.
Neighbor
To see your neighbors in your dreams, denotes many profitable hours will be lost in useless strife and gossip. If they appear sad, or angry, it foretells dissensions and quarrels.
There was nothing for cul-de-sac, but for street:
Street
To dream that you are walking in a street, foretells ill luck and worries. You will almost despair of reaching the goal you have set up in your aspirations. To be in a familiar street in a distant city, and it appears dark, you will make a journey soon, which will not afford the profit or pleasure contemplated. If the street is brilliantly lighted, you will engage in pleasure, which will quickly pass, leaving no comfort.
To pass down a street and feel alarmed lest a thug attack you, denotes that you are venturing upon dangerous ground in advancing your pleasure or business

Early on in a relationship or courtship, I don’t expect to have you trotting me all around your family. I may not want to meet them before I know I want more with you anyway. lol It was a while before I met the beau’s family but that’s mostly due to the fact that they live in Miami…long way from here.

My dissension with her is her rudeness over Thanksgiving and not informing me of her plans like she said she would. Nothing major. I was surprised she popped in my dreams and I remembered it.

Hey Ladies and Gents: and Dream Interpreters
Meeting the Parents/Family is a Significant Step, especially if this is a younger man, never married, and whatnot:
I come from one of those Old School, tight knit, faithful families. I was brought up indirectly to not bring any woman around my family that I did not have intnentions on maintaining a relationship with. As I stated, no one ever said don’t do it, but you know. Once a woman meets your mother, the dynamics of your relationship will change, there will be an additional pressure to love or leave her depending on Mama’s feel for the lady. Of course what you think is the only thing that really matters, but if you are ready for people to be in the peripheral vision of your relationship, don’t introduce yet.

hey jake – I get your post but, in my opinion, it ties in with what I said earlier about guys dangling it in front of a chick like it’s a prize. there are a lot of women who feel like meeting the parents (friends/other family members) means she is “special”. maybe she is, maybe she isn’t. just saying, me, myself, personally – I’m not pressed. I know guys whose friends/family are in on the “game”. you know the guy who brings one chick by for the barbecue on Saturday and a different chick by for Sunday dinner.

Didn’t have time to read thru all, but Cel I’m feeling your first post and totally agree!!
I’ve had dudes in the past act like meeting their peeps is some sort of prize, and I guess for some it still is. They would seem to dangle it over my head like if they finally “decided” to bestow upon me that great honor, I would somehow be crowned a princess like Diana!! When I acted non-chalant about it, it really confused them. They didn’t realize I never have problems meeting the fam! Heck, most of the time I ended up getting along with the fam better than I did the dude. Parents always like me, I’m a respectable woman. I had one mother to tell her son after meeting me to not mess over me!
Shoot, if anything the dudes needed to worry whether or not I deemed them worthy to take around MY family! I never dealt with just anybody and sho wouldn’t bring them home!!

i decided last night that i have the utmost respect for my daughter. she moved out almost 3 years ago and has resolved to do whatever it takes to remain independent AND responsible. she kept my dogs while i was on vacay; taking on the task of introducing them to a cat household. she checked on my place and collected my mail, and even kept her brother his first day in town before i got back.
then she popped in last night to bring me a b-day gift and hear all about my trip (and, um, drop off her dirty dainties). all in all, she’s become a woman that i could easily consider a friend. never woulda thunk it five years ago.
i’ll try to remember that the next time i’m scowling at my son, wondering how the hell he’s gonna get a grip on life.

Yeah, you got it…at least I can tell that’s what those dummies were thinking. I’m just looking at them like, for real??? How about the both of y’all slow y’alls roll and sit on down somewhere. I told her, sticks and stones baby, sticks and stones. What a person says about you only make you that if you believe. Mmmm hmmm, side eye to both of them. Then he had the audacity to look like he might wanna buck a bit when I was talking to them and getting on her more so. He answered saying “yeah.” I was like “yeah??” He said “oh… yes” and I again said “yes??” Then he said “yes ma’am” He ain’t been saying “yeah” to me and she don’t either. Ain’t gon start now…IJS

CC – I sure there will be that open back and forth. I’m finding out the more you loosen the reins (not give them full range), the more independence they’ll take on as well as being more open with you. At least for now that’s how it is/has been. I will say though, SHE KNOWS EVERYDANGTHING….sheesh. She was busy saying yesterday, she’s determined to make it on her own by way of doing it herself….blah blah blah That’s all well and good, but you still need guidance and stepping stones. That’s gonna be her downfall, if any. Not in a bad way, but she’s the typical “almost 18 but knows more than you.” But how many ain’t been down that road???

To see murder committed in your dreams, foretells much sorrow arising from the misdeeds of others. Affair will assume dulness. Violent deaths will come under your notice.
If you commit murder, it signifies that you are engaging in some dishonorable adventure, which will leave a stigma upon your name.
To dream that you are murdered, foretells that enemies are secretly working to overthrow you.

On the one kid thing, I don’t think back then I could have handled more than one. Financially, mentally, none of it. I don’t really think about her not have other sibs, never have. I use to wonder what it would be like once she’s gone, even with that, I don’t really think about that no more. My thoughts are now, life will hand me back a few good years to take up where I left off, but with a better mindset, better finances, better footings (underneath me), a stronger backbone, so forth and so on. So, when the few goods years are totally handed back to me, I know now how to navigate void of the dumb stuff I did prior to kid. It’s like I know where I wanna go and how much time it’s gonna take me to get there. As opposed to feeling my way through as a kid and wasting time and years on stuff and people (going nowhere). Lord willing (on the how much time it’s gonna take to get their part).

C – I didn’t think about the sibling thing when he was younger. I figured my brother and assorted cousins would have to fill in the gap and make it do what it do. I only considered the whole aspect of the sibling thing (a day late and a dollar short I might add) in regard to his adulthood. I remember thinking it was crazy when I met folks who didn’t have cousins. I grew up with dozens of them and to not have any seemed unbelievable to me. now I realize my kid can very likely be that person who has a child with no cousins. also, I think about after the parents are gone how it’s nice that the siblings have each other. naturally I wasn’t thinking any of this then, only now. oh well. he’ll be alright.

disco – Exactly. Back when I came up, it was unheard of not having sibs or a gang of “kinfolks.” As little as we had growing up, there’s nothing like a house full of kids and stuff to do/going on all the time. It was a really warm environment growing up. Not having a bunch of kinfolks was unheard of back in the day.
My kid has a half sister, who is mixed. They’ve never really spent time together though. She’s six years older than her. Too, I have a gang of sibs myself so there are many many cousins around my kid. His folks had a ton of kids/cousins so she’s got it on his side as well, but again, she don’t hang with those crazy people…lol
I think big families (except for a few folks on reality tv), are a thing of yesteryear. We’ll see some here and there, but I think 5 or 6 kids nowadays are considered a lot. That’s probably the max for families considered “big”, in today’s times.

Peanut was older than me, but because he always messed around and did nothing (too much), we ended up in an economics class together. He was two years older. Even then, in that class, the teacher, who was ghey, always seemed ahem “agitated” by Peanut and felt the need to chase him a lot, or call on him or just always at him for some reason or another. That in turn kept Peanut cutting class or literally dodging the teacher even touching while class was in session. I remember once he was after him and Peanut started stepping on chairs and desks to get away from him.

Disco, once and ex told me not to say goodbye because it meant I didn’t want to talk to her anymore, but if he said goodbye then hanging up is what’s next.

Can’t even say I was too feisty, but I clearly wasn’t a “yeah, you’re right,” “no, I understand,” “yeah, I gotcha” kind of woman! I even held the phone out in the air during one of our convos, but that’s better than a hangup.

disco ~ nobody but a Joker. Spoke with him last year during a connection online. Never met. Not sure how we lost contact. Could be my short fuse with the things he was saying. Perhaps not his short fuse with me since he called again seeking a connection. I knew something was wrong when right after “hey” he follows it up with “why don’t women return phone calls?”

Peanut Stories-true story
This cat P-Nut that went to colleg wit us was and still is the craziest negro I have ever met. Would fight at the drop of a dime..so at one point the fella playing video games and he tells this cat don’t change to a different game, so of course, when P-Nut leaves the room he changes the game. P-Nut walks back in, looks at the TV, “SLAP”, never heard him say he gonna get somebody and not do it….Fast Forward 7yrs, I been hearing different stories along the way, he is treating his nose , held up a store, blah, blah, blah….I go back to the Ville for a Bachelor Party of a mutual friend…after an hour or so, who walks in the door with girl with a Dog Collar on her neck attached to a Chain, P-NUT…some real life “Black Snake Moan”…and yes, he is currently incarcerated!!

You guys and these nick names, reminds me of a guy in my home town that was a snitch for the police, they did a story on him and said they were going to a fictitious name and used his nickname, They would have been better off using his real name because no one knew that (LOL)

All I know is if a woman does not like the pace I take things, there is the door. I applaud the guy in this post, the woman is being pushy and is insecure, the world doesn’t revolve around a woman’s time clock. I think the guy should let that bitty go.

Terrance – Exactly. Everybody’s got do and make the right call for them. It’s not to say she’s too anxious because it’s not at his pace and vice versa. A relationship consists of two people and finding a happy medium. If it’s not balanced, then yeah you should get the door so she can step through it for the one right for her…and again, vice versa.
