Our relationship is a little weird I guess.
We have been dating for 3 years and 4 months and he still has not said anything to his parents (well his dad pretty much knows about me, but not the mother nor his siblings). Our relationship is great though theres no complaints besides this issue and I can see us being together and hopefully married in the future.
I have a question
1. What is the typical custom of a Nigerian man when it comes to dating/marriage? My BF told me that when a man brings a woman to meet the parents that pretty much signifies that he will marry her.
2. What would you do? I have told him on several occasions that this bothers me and he told me when he graduates from college(undergrad) then he will talk to his parents...but I dont know if I believe it.
Here is some more info: I am ~23 just graduated from college, he is 21 and will graduate this year (December). He also told me his mother demands that he marries a Doctor (I hope holistic doctor counts lol) . His mother also told him not to date American girls because they will trap you
