That should really let you see things clearly. There will be a nice piece of land of hers or family you can build on, or buy something new in 'her' name. RUN True! But too early in the relationship for that ! For the consideration she’s got two kids . This drastically lowers the sinsot contribution ! Its in his favor. imop Edited July 9, 2023 by riclag 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then if she wants to have a kid with him, just became a family of 4, without the hanger ons... ... RUN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am since forever together with my gf. Most of the time we are happy and likely we will stay together until we die. In the time since we are together, I saw lots of couples marry and then divorce. It seems the marriage didn't help. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be nice to be married to a woman from a rich family. But imagine you have some misunderstanding. And she tells her dad that you are so mean to her. Now what will her rich, and probably influential dad do? If you’re afraid of her father I don’t recommend starting the relationship at all.

Fwiw, I have been supporting her financially somewhat as well and her son is sick with long COVID, but have explained that there are limits. There are several other red flags I am feeling in the relationship but do feel I love her. Feedback welcome.

swm59nj Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 From what you are doing she might think marriage is in the works. That is what usually happens when they want you to meet the parents. You say you think you love her.. The relationship is less than one month. You need to get to know her more. You might right now like her, be attracted, and infatuated. But a true love. You need more time. And you already have questions about certain things about her. What you are doing to help her is over and above for a very short time in the relationship. My suggestion would say to her you will meet her parents. But make it clear you are doing out of courtesy. Not for a quick marriage. And maybe you should talk to her about these negative things you don’t want to mention. You don’t want to have a relationship with questions in your mind. Or lack of trust . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you everyone Think of it in a different way, up to now she has "hopefully been honest" with you regarding herself and family back home. You are unsure of how far you wish to pursue this relationship. Go to her parents under the understanding it's a casual meeting without any promises. Assess the situation for yourself then make your decision if you wish to continue the relationship or bail-out. Realise if you want IN... there are no financial limits... you're IN the family or OUT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gecko123 Posted July 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) All these warnings that the family will likely descend upon the OP with endless financial hardship stories and conniving invitations to go sightseeing at the local Big C Supercenter, as amusing and entertaining as they are, are mostly just bar stool tales which have been embellished and handed down over the years. The chances of the OP encountering this behavior on an initial visit are pretty slim. Everyone is going to be on their best behavior. The girlfriend will be keeping everyone on a short leash, not only so as to not scare the OP off, but to make sure she remains the main beneficiary of his generosity.

Considering you're just a month in and already giving her money and getting invited to the family, it doesn't really sound promising. Only you can decide what works for you, but it's not a relationship I would take any further. Long covid sounds fishy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking a long time to make a determination to see if she is worthy of your time, and devotion, is always a good idea. See what she is made of. See what kind of heart and soul she has. 55555555555555555 Took me 5 years to find out that the women I first lived with wasn't worth my time. She was a good woman, but not right for me.
