My dad asked my boytriend if he will marry me and its only been 2 months!?
Ive been seeing this guy for two months. We met onlibe a few weeks before that. I told him i wanted to get to know him better before sex, so we waited almost a month and the first time he couldnt even get it up he was so nervous! After i told him i was jealous he was seeing other girls, he told me he got rid of them as he sees me as longer term potential and asked me to be his girlfriend.
My dad now wanted to meet him (they never met.any guy i dated as i was a late boomer. Im 25 and my guy is 26). I waited three weeks before asking my guy to meet my dad. He was super nervous, but said he would do it for me and we scheduled it.
It was so awkward bc my dad basically interrogated him (hes traditional and from another country and both parents are religious. I am somewhat and my boyfriend isnt at all though he was raised catholic). My dad asked if he was there to propose and if.not what were his intentions. He said to take time to get to know me as we havent known each other that long. I agreed n that eventually i want marriage, but i dont know if its him.
After, i asked my bf his thoughts on marriage that he really doesnt believe in the institution and feel people just do it because its time, but arent happy. He saiid he prob will get married one day since he wants kids and society expexts it of him. I told him how i think marriage is the ultimate symbol of love and commitment.he gotit.he knos i wont live w a guy unless were engaged. Does it sound like our rs is doomed!?

You never should've had your dad talk to your boyfriend so soon in the relationship. You screwed up and might have ran your boyfriend off. It's understandable that your American boyfriend doesn't believe in the institution of marriage. Marriage is bad for men in the U.S. and other western countries due to feminism being such a powerful force here. Only time will tell ..... and likewise if you're not the raving lunatic that most American women are then he just might marry you after all.

that is a dads job.im not religious but i would grill my daughters bf the same way.my view of it is if your good enough to live with,bang and have his kids why arent you good enough to marry.it is a cop out if he wants all the above with out marriage.that is fine if he doesnt want marriage,BUT your have your standards also.Protect your self from unwanted pregnancy(the pill,condoms,iud,foams,no intercourse).No your relationship isnt doomed,but you do need to stand up for your beliefs and wants.Do not let him push you into something you are not ready for or against,stand your ground.If he truly loves you he will come around to your way of thinking on the marriage issue,if not he is not worth it.

You've been dating for 2 months...nothing is 'doomed' yet, unless you allow your father to have too much influence on your relationship...if you and this guy handle things yourselves, and do things at your own pace (sex, marriage, or anything else) then who knows, it may work out long term...time will tell...
