Parents love my ex, but I have a new bf to present to them?
My ex and I dated for almost 3 years, but broke up 3 months ago. I started dating someone else recently and I want to introduce him to my parents because of respect. They love my ex and still ask about him a lot, they would like us back together. However, that ship has sailed and I'm happy with my new bf.
Is it too soon to take a new bf home since they still ask about my ex? I have made it clear to my parents that it's over. Also, my new bf doesn't have a job because he just moved back with his parents to go back to college this summer.
My new boyfriend's family has been nice and I've gone to dinner at their home twice. His mom is a little over protective of him, but she's been nice to me so far.
Any tips? Thanks :)
I'm afraid of what my parents may think of my new boyfriend since he has no job. He did register for a summer college class so that may be a 'plus'. I guess I'm just worried that they won't accept him with the same open arms that they used to accept my ex with. :( I live 3 hours away from my family and live on my own because of college.

Its prolly hard for ur parents to get used to someone new after the 3 years uve been with that other dude. Its prolly alittle too soon but just make it clear to ur fam that u and ur ex are just friends and they need to move on like u have and then in a week or so...introduce them to ur new bf (:

Introduce him like the other guy didn't even exist!
Your parents will make the comparisons all they want anyway..
They could also end up liking the new guy more than your ex..
good luck!
