Default Marriage and the parents

Would you marry a girl/woman even if her parents did not approve and she was still down to go through with it? Does her parental approval matter to you?

Depends, how much of a daddys/mommys girl is she? This kinda shit can spin on you really fast when she gets pissed off at you, next thing you know her parents will be crying come home come home and she will use it as leverage.

Now if she absolutely hates them, who knows?

So a girl told you that you were the best that she had, and now you want to marry her?

If they disapprove of the marriage...keep dating. Perhaps they'll come around to the idea? You may learn something during the extended dating time you don't see now...

good luck with your decision though.

When you marry you marry her, her family and all her problems.

Why not work a little harder on selling yourself to the parents? Right now it's easy to walk away, but after you're married it's a whole lot tougher.
