I have been seeing an older guy for about 5 months now.
The only person who knows about him in my family is my mom who lives in new york- but shes fine with it and trusts me to be sensible.
Yesterday my boyfriend told me that he wanted to meet my parents (my dad and step mom who I live with) because he said he's really serious about our relationship and would mean a lot to him to know that my parents were happy with us dating.
I fully agree with him and want them to meet- but how do I tell them about him and how to introduce them?
p.s. Im almost 18 and he's in his 20's
just to clarify he's 26, which is why they might be opposed to the idea. xx
i agree that to some degree I am a bit insecure about the difference- but only because I'm thinking about how I can justify it to my dad...
 
How much age difference is there in your dad and step mom?

When I first went to meet my wife's parents I had pictures of meet the parents going through my mind. I was 48 and she was 24. A lot bigger age difference than you have.

But it worked out great when I met them.

And about 3 months before we got married the wife commented to her father about the age difference, and he said, he could see we were in love.

And now I live in her country, and live with her at her parents house. And her mom loves it. As I do some of the cooking from time to time.

So tell him to be himself, and show them how much the 2 of you are in love. And I don't mean hanging on him, and trying to have sex in front of them. But act very mature.

And they should see this, and hopefully accept him as your boyfriend.
