Should I forgive my gf's father for his insulting conducts?

Question

Read my previous post.

I'm still very upset, I haven't talked to my gf or her family or her friends for 2 weeks. I'm a man w/ integrity and I don't take craps from anyone even my gf's father. I want him to appologize to me or we (my gf and I) have to go on our separate ways. I need ur opinions!

Answer 1

Depends on what you found insulting. Remember it is her father and usually dad's are looking out for their child's best interest! You need to elaborate....takes a lot to get sympathy from me unless I know the situation!

OOPS! Just read your last post. It is normal for a parent to question a mate of their child. He could have done it more tastefully. It takes a stronger and better man to make the first move. If you care about his girl...let her father know you have good intentions and you respect his concern for his daughter.

Answer 2

Let's see, after reading your previous post, it seems the father is concerned about his daughter's future. If you have integrity as you say, you should answer his questions honestly. If you are willing to split up with your gf over this, I think he is right to doubt you. You sound like you need to grow up quite a bit before trying to take on an adult role in a relationship.

Answer 3

Check your pride. It will get you nowhere.
Sorry. Do not expect an apology from the father.
I am speaking as a father of 2 daughters and I will scrutinize anyone who woos them.
Keep this in mind. Showing respect to the parents is always a good indicator how respectful you are to their daughter.
Some cultures take this EXTREMELY seriously.

Answer 4

If you really love your girlfriend you will forgive her father, it does not mean you have to forget what he did, but for the sake of your relationship, if it means anything to you, you will let it go for now, and resolve it later, when everyone has had a chance to cool off, but remember don't let your girlfriends fathers actions affect how you feel about your girlfriend, if it does then you don't really love her and you need to move on.

Answer 5

You should always forgive and forget. If you hang on to things like this, then it will make your life less pleasant. You shouldn't separate from your gf just because her dad insults you. Good luck.

Have a nice day :-)

Answer 6

If thats how you feel stick to your guns. I didn't read your previous post yet, but I will. However, it is obvious that this is something you feel strongly about so not holding out for an apology (at the very least) would be compromising yourself and any relationship you have to do that to be in isn't worth having.

Answer 7

Obviously the words of a simple man means more to you than your girlfriend. Move on or be a better man than her father and let it roll off like water from a duck.

Answer 8

You all need to go your separate ways anyway. Anyone who would refuse to talk to his girlfriend because of the actions of some other party is not ready to be in a serious relationship.

Answer 9

i guess that would depend on how much you care for your gf. you can try to demand an apology and see where that gets you. but try not to drag her into the middle of it. if you aren't that serious about this girl, just move on. you are in a very busy place in life right now. you don't need the aggravation

Answer 10

You shouldn't hold your girlfriends father's attitude against her. That's you punishing her for something she has no control over. Tell her that you don't want to be around her father until he apologizes but don't snub her because of this.
