6. Your parents are often great red-flag detectors
At times, the concerns parents have about your partner might make sense. It’s important to consider what your family thinks about your relationship. Sometimes they can give you insights you might fail to notice.
But ultimately, the decisions about your relationships are up to you because you’re the one in them. While it can be difficult, try not to discuss problems in a relationship with your family because they might not forget or forgive as easily as you can.
You know your partner really well and understand him better than family members do. Doing things together with both your partner and your family can help them see different sides of his personality and your relationship.
