Some parents make you feel that if you are not in a relationship with an “acceptable” person then there must be something wrong with you, some even go as far as giving you a deadline to bring forth an “acceptable” husband/wife else…(thank God you can just pick one up from FianDer – a premium dating site for marriage ready professionals). 

You on the other hand already have a wonderful relationship of mutual love and respect, something we all crave in this crazy world of failed relationships and disappointing partners. You have invested so much into this relationship and after a great deal of time, wooing and compromises; it seems only natural that the relationship should evolve and be taken to the next level. Now you have to meet The family, spearheaded by the parents. 

More than ever, you crave the approval, the validation that this relationship you hold as the most important aspect of your adult life be equally as relevant and exciting to the faceless family that you are so anxious and eager to meet!

And…. that is where the issue begins.
