If you were dating someone who you thought was a great catch but one or both of your parents had reservations would you continue with the relationship?
*when i say reservations I don't mean that the person treats you poorly or is a bum. The guy is financially stable, has a college degree, gainfully employed and is ambitious. The parent's reservation exists b/c he may not be on the your "level" because you have or are pursuing an advanced degree (ex: MD, PhD, JD etc). Also the person is older (35) and according to your parents he should have "accomplished more" in life.
Would you take your parent's concerns to heart or tell mommy or daddy (or person who raised you) that "I respect your opinion but I have to do me" even if it meant that there was a rift created in the relationship b/n you and your parents?
