How to Cope When Your Parents Don't Like the
Person You Love
It will probably happen to you at least once
in your life. You'll fall for somebody that your parents don't like. Sometimes
their disapproval will be valid, other times it will be irrational, but no
matter what it will be hard for you to deal with.
What do you do when your parents can't stand
the person you’re dating? Before taking on the role of diplomat, or even worse
the role of family agitator, there are some things that you need to examine.
You need to take an honest look at your romantic motivations and the reasons
for your parents' objections.
Examining
Your Motivations
Why are you dating this person? Be brutally
honest. Are you crazy in love or loving driving your parents crazy? If you are
motivated by rebellion the simplest and right thing to do is end the
relationship.
