It’s time to step up and meet them. You haven’t presented us with any viable reason to not meet them.

Meet his family to find out if you want them to be a presence in your children's lives or not.

OP here, I know it doesn’t sound like a big deal, but I’m a bit hesitant. I’m kind of shy and have a bit of anxiety about these things. I had a really bad experience with my ex in laws so meeting just the thought of meeting his family makes me really nervous.


You were younger, now you are older and experienced. Be confident, friendly and nonchalant. No need to think of them as in-laws at this point.

That isn’t fair to put on your new guy.

I haven’t even introduced him to my kid yet. I would prefer to do that before I meet his family.

Why would you want to bring your kid into it first? That doesn’t make sense. Your kid and their feelings are far more important than his family.

They’re just people, OP.

Welp, I predict your relationship not working out.

It was a last minute plan. We’ve been dating a little over a year and I’m not sure I’m ready to meet his family. I’m feeling a little nervous about it and want to say no, but I feel like it may cause some tension between us.
