Re: Is this normal?
Thats a good point hitchki....but then again, he was trying to establish his own relationship with the gal he intends to marry and she's siding with his conservative parents. The guy has no recourse now without some cooperation from her. Once they're married, things would be different but for now, he just has to take it since she's not cooperating in any way. Its probably frustrating for him.
Well.... technically tehy have no relationship..their relationship won't begin until they're married. I know it suonds crazy but it's true. THe engagement period is VERY fragile.... the slightest thing between the families and it can break. If she meets him w/o letting any of them know, HIS family might take it the wrong way and blame her, fight wiht her family, and there ya go the engagement is off.....
But whatever his feelings/ideas/thoughts are, he has absolutely no right to be mean and sarcastic towards her. If he were really so "liberal" as opposed to "conservative", he'd respect her feelings and just wait , instead of being a jerk..
