    So much drama!
    Hi, I have been dating this girl for 6 years. When we met we were freshmen in college and have changed a lot since then. Now we are done with school and work full time. In college I hid the seriousness of our relationship from my parents.now when the time has come to get married my parents are not supporting me. Hearing this she said that she needs time off and maybe date other people (coz I cannot be the one as I lied about us) after 1 month of limited talk, she says that she would like to go out on a few dates with me (I don't know if she is dating other guys too). What should I do? I really love her and we both thought we were the one? I don't want to share her with other guys and want to see/talk to her daily?

    Dear confusedwat2do

    The only key for you is to have patience!
    It will take sometime for things to get normal.Probably she's hurt as you have hidden your 6 yrs relationship from the most important people in your life I. your parents and now they are opposing it,so at first she might have got the insecurity thinking that you might not love her in the same way but after a gap of month she realized that your feelings for her are true and now she wants to give it a second chance!
    So here's the right time,you can and I am sure you will turn the things in your favour!
    This is what you can do while dating her,try to give her the maximum comfort so that when she's with you she will not think about anyone else.Also I know it might hurt but try to avoid asking about other men and dates,She might not like it.
    Give her some space and she will realize by herself that you are the right man for her!
    All the best!

    What! How do you hide the seriousness of a relationship from your family for 6 years? This was a stupid mistake.

    Now, think about it from her point of view. You are seriously dating someone for 6 years and her parents have not idea that you guys are seeing each other seriously. This tells you that she didn't think her parents would approve of you. It also tells you that she respects her parent's opinions.

    Listen, you need to MAN the “f” UP! If didn't stand up for her then, how could she trust that you will stand up for her in the future.

    If love this woman and wanted or want to spent the rest of your life with her. You don't need the approval or blessing from anyone but HER.

    Well she is hurting she probably thinks you were to embarrassed to tell your parents of you didn't take her serious enough to be honest I don't understand why you didn't tell your parents.
    It doesn't matter what they say anyway if you are happy then that's all that matters I would give her space she is just hurt that's all
