thanks for all replies.

my friends partner has told her that his parents would not agree to them being together and would make life very dificult for him.

i undrestand him in a way because if they know about her, they wont have a relationship with her.

my thinking is is it right to live a double life and is it right that if they have a child . that child misses out on a family and i dont think it is right.should a child be brought into the world like that.

true love never runs smoothly.

its hard to be a friend some times when a friend wants you to give her an answer best for her.

yum_yum: i found out today that someone i know is planning to spend her life with a man . As the relationship got more serious , she began to talk about families.Her partner told her that his parents can never find out about them because they are very old and set in there ways and would cause problems for him. they would never acsept her.As she has children already and it would bring shame to his family.

He wants a child now , where that child would never see their grandmother or grandfather.

Do you think this man is a coward and should stand up for his woman and not care what they think?

Or should the woman be easy on him and as long as there happy thats all that matters?
This one smells funny. Don't you think?

A life long committed relationship is built on trust. Neither of these two people should be together!! And they want to bring another human being into their distrustful world???

Two people should meet the other's relations. Who cares if no one gets along!! These two people should be there for each other only.

And if anyone told me they could not let their relations meet me for any reasona at all...I would do a back ground check on the whole lot of them.

I know this from experience....I once dated a person, who I found out later, had been one of Charlie Manson's followers.doh And all of this person's family are druggy losers.

AGREED!!!!!!

also it would be be very selfish of him to never let his parents see their child, it would be their Grandchild and All Grandparents find a way to accept their "other: Grandchildren" by a previous marriage.

Not only that, his Parents had him, they know how the process is. . . . I smell a rat. . . . jmo

With respect - this is a total bunch of crap. Sorry but you don't hide the woman you love, the mother of your children from anyone. He's putting his love for his parents above the love for his wife and his children. This man is a total wimp.

He's created a new family unit when he decided to hook up with this woman and her kids and that means he should commit to them for better or worse, not only when it suits him.

chocolatespice: @OCee35 I really disagree with you -he is not asking her to lie but he is lying by omittance. He is lying about his life and lifestyle


i was that woman.. his parents never accepted me. put up with it for 5 years.. those were not happy 5 years of my life.. im not sure why i held on despite the fact that he was leading the double life, with me and with his family, despite the fact that his family constantly puts me down.. he wanted to keep everyone happy and eventually, the relationship crumbled. sometimes, a man just has to choose who is more important in his life and realise that one cant keep everyone happy at all times.
