I know u all can't get y my parents don't want me to date the one i love but u have to know 1st that i come from Egypt an Arab Country we have restricted traditions and habbits.
i can't have an afaire or a complete relationship like a boyfriend and his girlfring coz its not allowed in ISlam and coz i am Muslim i have to obey god.
my parents have broad minds that when i told them about the one i love they allow me to talk with him and go out with him but not always its about the traditions .they could tell me no u can't know him and go out with him but they always let me some area of freadum coz i am 21 years old but my father was afraid this guy want just to play with me so he wanted at lwast to c him if he was not going to propose now but at lwast to know the one i choose to make sure that he is seroius i hope u all understant my point.

I think you have good parents who are willing to allow you freedom even though it's not their tradition. I think they want you to be careful because they are concerned for you and not because of tradition. Listen to your parents, they are wise. Be careful who you get involved with and respect your parent's opinions. The final decision, of course, is up to you but don't make a mistake you will pay for the rest of your life.

I think your parents are trying to be fair and give you some guidance but also give the relationship a chance.You do not need to have an affair with the guy to be together.Your respectful customs could be good way to court and find someone who will be a good life partner.You need to talk to your parents and reassure them that you respect your traditions but need more time to get to know this guy before a proposal.

I know exactly what you are talking about ..and i want to tell you that you have a great parents ..usually they can say no..because the Eastern society refuse bf/gf relationship , but it seems they are cool they are just giving you the right quantity of freedom..i don't know what's bothering you ..you have to be happy ..that yur parents allow you to date ..a lot don't ..I had to date secretly ..so i want to tell you u r lucky ..If you are bothered coz ur father is anxious about u ..i just wanna say ..this is a very normal reaction..by the time he'll get used to him ..and will love him ..it's just a matter of time ..as for you ..be careful..and watch out ..and don't break the confidence your parents gave you ..OK..!! =)

I'm not sure I understand the question here, but a lot depends on some unknown information. Are you currently living in the U.S.? Does the guy also share your parents and your views about relationships? Do you want to marry this guy? Does he want to marry you?
A lot of things change when you are living in a different culture, especially if the guy you are with is from a different culture.
Best of luck.

Parents always want what is best for their children. I'm 32..and have been outcast by more parents than most..for the way I look..act...whatever....True love is between two people......Not a whole freekin family. Your father and traditions are important..but NEVER LET SEX MAKE DECISIONS FOR YOU. Obey your heart....if you trust your heart. Love is precious, but dangerous. It's unpredictable, and always in the right place. Good luck kid.

Well it's tough cause u have these traditions behind you. I am a believer that you go for the man you love, he's that one that's going to make you happy. I come from a strong Catholic background and same with myself we have some traditions as well. I am gay and my parents don't really like the idea ... God doesn't approve, ect... however, I believe that we are all an image of god wether it be Alla or God or Buddah, he will love us all as long as we are good people. We are who we are, is what my defence is ... according to my bible that's what God told Moses when Moses asked what name to give to the Egyptians when he went back. You are who you are ... do what makes you happy
