They are jealous. They can remember how it felt to be young and in love, but now they are old and married.

You need to treat them like they're the most precious people on earth. Keep going round the house, make sure you say good evening and good night. Don't stay too late. Tell your boyfriend to keep telling them how wonderfull you are, and how much you talk about them. He should tell them you keep talking about them and how wonderfull they are. Get him to give them some flowers, he can say they're from you, but your too shy to give them to his parents. Treat them like a woman you rejected at the altar. All consideration and kindness. Lay it on thick and their opinions will probably change. Good luck, and next time, leave no marks.

eyeswideopen agony auntI think they are overreacting. However maybe you should stop with the hickeys and always behave like a lady when you are in their presence. Actions speak louder yada yada. They will change their opinions if they are reasonable people.

His parents need to grow up, nothing wrong with leaving your mark on your man. I know that you want his parents to like you, but honestly you not dating his parents your dating him.

My girlfriends parents dont like me. but that is because I am white. Don't worry about it.

unfortunely changing a parent's opinion is really hard. Most of the parents attempt to be super stubborn about their thoughts especially when it comes about their children. I would definitely recommend to you to give them time to forget. Time will be the best healer. Probably they're just old fashioned and stuck in their own estereotypes but dont let this get to you. You know you're not a slut neither does your bf thinks it, and that's what really counts.

Avoid hiding from them,do the complete opposite. I know after this situation you're probably feeling embarrased but don't be afraid to continue showing up at their place

Actually show more often at their home so you can have a better chance to leave a great and new impression on them. Try to interact more with the family and let them know what kind of person you are and how much you care about his son. Also try to avoid for a while any "love show" in public, you don't want to give the parents more material to screw you up hehe.

Good luck!!! XOXO
