Some of you may remember my first question, about which guy I should choose, and I chose the guy that my parents don't like. We have been secretly dating, but then my parents came home while he was here, and they were furious. How can I convince them he's a good guy?

Matto agony auntGirl, no time 2 waste time especialy at ur age. Though ur parent are behaving that way because they luv u, if u think that guy is perfect 4 u then don't waste time. Yet, I warn u to think about ur parent's words cos they can see beyond ur sight wit their eyes of experience.

I'm with everyone else.....you are 36 - 40 and you're worried about your parents being angry at you? The mere fact that they have the audacity to still be trying to control your life at your age should be enough to make you VERY angry at them.

If I were you, I'd not only go out with the guy they don't like, I'd probably tell them to get out of my life until they could treat me with a modicum of respect.

linz09 agony auntEr are you really aged between 36 -40 years old? Well to be honest its up to you who you date at that age isn't it...you sound like a teenager secretly dating...maybe you quite enjoy going out with a 'bad' boy and get a thrill from the secret dates???? You can only decide for yourself if this guy is worth all the sneaking around. From my experience its a cliche but mum and dad however old you are can spot a wrong un a mile off and then you'll hear them say..I told you so...but, on the other hand if this guy is pretty decent the only thing you can do is give your parents time to adjust and possibly get to know him and if he does stick around they may warm to him..
