Make my girlfriends parents like me or accept me?

How do I make my girlfriends parents like me or accept me???they dislike me because of my religion and race

Answer #1

People who dislike other people because of religion and race tend to stereotype them. By showing them you arent whatever they think you are might help. Just be respectful, dress maybe a little bit more conservative around them, try and obey their rules about their daughter (curfews etc), dont get her into trouble, and maybe they’ll warm up to you.

Answer #2

yah what she said just be your self. dont try to be any one els . show them the fun side of you . as long as your girlfriend likes you for who you are and not who her parents want you to be

Answer #3

thats how my parents are, all my friends a mixed ethnicities, and just because they’re not FULL filipino they look at them differently. I can honestly say my they do sterotype, and sometimes they are racist. but I don’t get them. we are all the same.

my boyfriend is japanese, portugese, and german. my parents know nothing about him. just because I’m not a loud to date AND because hes not filipino, I know they will flip out. they’re the old fashion kind of people. they want to stick with the same background style I live in.

its their problem if they don’t like you. your not dating them. your dating their daughter. or show them how you really are.

Answer #4

Firstly, I think it’s wrong that they don’t like you, because of your race and religion, and I can’t stand people that live all about sterotypes. But I am also sure there is more to you then just that. Show them the other stuff about you.. the good stuff in your personality, maybe if they just got a chance to know you, they would see that you really are a pretty cool guy. but if that doesn’t work and they don’t like you for you, there is nothing really you could do, but at least you tried, right?

good luck !

Answer #5

One thing I know that’s really fake is when you pretent tp be all nice and a big suck up. Parents tend to think it’s all an act, even when it might not be. Just be yourself.

Answer #6

My brother is going throught the same thing.. Except he isn’t there religion and they want him to be. He is doing all this stuff to make they like him and goes to church with them, but honestly it changed him as a person. He isn’t the same brother I use to have, and I miss it.. So you really should just stay yourself. If your girlfriend is fine with it then thats all that should matter. Your dating her not them.. They will except it or not but pushing to much for exceptance can make them dislike you even more.

Answer #7
