And anyone who just answered J C's question watch how quickly this disappears to oblivion.
But seriously, we have been dating for over 5 months now. Her mom lives out of state and I really don't know much about her dad. She is very closed up by nature and we have done all that talking stuff and what not, got past a lot of hurdles already, but she still has yet to mention anything about her dad (I get the sense he is completely out of her life and sometimes wonder if he is even still alive!) and wonder if she has told her mom she is dating me (at least I know they aren't terribly close). So, anyone been through this (or done this)? We are going to her mom's hometown (not to see her, just for a vacation as I have some family there, too) but she has yet to mention anything about seeing her mom. How weird is that?

WOW! A sensitive man.... I say don't worry about it. If she is not making a big deal about it, you shouldn't either! She may not be that close with her mother, just that simple!

It's not weird at all!!! She has some thing's in her past she does not want to deal with, and if she can not accept her mom maybe, she is afraid she will not accept you and it will make things worse. Give her the space she needs when dealing with all of this. She will get past it and she will open up to you, but try not too force the issue. I am assuming this is a dis-functional family. I came from one and the last thing I would do is take someone home to get them involved in that mess.... Good Luck

it is kinda strange... but she may have her own personal reasons... maybe her mom and dad have some really big issues about theirselves that make her uncomfortable... just respect it for now. she'll come around. she obviously thinks a good bit of you to actually be around your family. usually in a relationship it's the other way around.

maybe theres alot of painful memories she wants to keep closed and she might not want to bring you into it.Try to let her bring it to you at her own pase. Remember its her problems and not yours everyone deals w/things when there ready to. Just be there and be supportive when she is ready to tell you.

It's not that wierd, i mean maybe she isn't tight with her parents or maybe she's just not ready. When she really feels ready believe me she'll let you know.
