2. She knows it’s weird for you to meet her parents

My boyfriend is closer to my dad’s age than he is to mine,” says Sarah, 27. When I first told my parents that I was dating someone much older they were skeptical – but once we hit the one-year mark they finally understood that it wasn’t a phase, and wanted to meet him. Which was weird, but I think that just how my boyfriend handled it had been great. He acknowledged the elephant in the area by cracking a tale with my dad in regards to a sports championship these were both alive for that I was obviously not, and from there the meeting went a lot more smoothly. We know that it is likely to be strange to meet up our folks, but we appreciate whatever you can perform to lighten the mood without overcompensating.”
