Hello world. My girlfriend is pretty great. However I had a question on how to not get burnt out of a relationship because of a significant others parent? Her dad is great. Her mom is not so great.
She is very controlling. I am not a guy that would ever try to keep a girl out late and “bring her home” or whatever normal conservative parents are always scared will happen when their “princess” starts dating. I don’t bring her to my apartment, and I only go on dates where it’s sorta public or at least we not alone so nothing sexual like HJ, BJ, or anything like that could happen. Because for me I want to save that for marriage so I have that conviction for myself.
Nonetheless, her mother really is starting to bug me. Normally me and my girlfriend talk on the phone everyday especially days we don’t see each other. But unless I’m around her like 8 hours I usually never get tired of being her. But I do get tired of having to go to her house and talk to her family. Her mother who is overly inquisitive. And her brother but I don’t think it is his fault. He gets it from his mother. Her dad is chill.
I guess my question is how do you keep a relationship strong when you really don’t like one of your SO’s parents?
Here is an example of what happened yesterday. So I’m at church with her from 6 to 9:45. But as much as I like church we don’t really get to talk one on one like a date. So to me I don’t know if I count that as a date since we’re talking to other mostly and not talking directly to each other. So I asked about Friday and she said that yeah her mom said she can’t go out (with me) tomorrow and not on Friday either. “Don’t plan anything tomorrow or Friday” then my GF responded and was like aren’t we
Having a movie night on friday? (which for context is not a me and her go watch a movie and eat after) which includes I go to her house and her mom, dad, brother, and one of her brothers random friends will be near us so basically not really much communication with her one on one.
Then her mom said “maybe”.
I’m like thinking about asking, “do you really have to get permission to go on a date with me? At age 23?” I mean her mom has met me and knows I’m not going to shag her daughter or anything. The heck.
And for more context she is 23 years old, has a full time teaching job this is her second year. She graduated from college two years ago. She does live at her parents house, but again her dad is chill.
Anyone ave any suggestions on how I don’t get burnt out of my girlfriend because of her overbearing mother?
Thinking about going to hang out with her at her house when anyone besides her dad is there is like dread.
Thank you!
