Maybe she knows her parents would feel the same as me about it...that separated is not divorced....and you aught to wait. Sorry, Chris, but you asked for opinions. |

Are there a few issues here?
Her parents know that you are separated and have a child, but cannot tell their daughter? She doesn't want to listen/hear about your separation or your child? You keep bringing all of this up even though you know it's not a comfortable topic? Better think long and hard as to what is really going on.... |

Maybe her parent's do know. And she is afraid of telling you how they are about it.

Some people believe - VERY STRONGLY - that it isn't over until the paperwork is filed. Her parents could be like that. It could be that she is okay with it but doesn't want to hear lectures from others. The only way to really find out would be to ask her why. |

how does she feel about you having a child? Maybe she is just waiting until things are more serious between you two before she tells her family. You might want to asked her how her family would feel about you having a child? well maybe you need to back off a little and give her time to decided if she is ready to handle this all herself. Because if she isn't comfortable telling her family, then she might be sure about the whole thing. |

If I was seeing someone that was separated, I would probably wait before telling my parents. Simply, because I know they want the best for me and would have strong opinions about me getting caught in the middle of something. Especially if there is a child involved.
Hope it works out for you. |

Well, the bigger you make this issue, the bigger the reaction will be. I suggest that you mention your status in passing conversation to her WITH her parents...they should certainly understand and appreciate your honesty and perhaps be more comfortable with you. |

I have 2 daughters.. and if I were with a man who didn't explain details to his family of my situation (as well as his) as he's suddenly apart of it.. I too would do what you've done, which is bring up the conversation. However, if a conversation like that is avoided.. then there is no reason for me to continue. My daughters acceptance and place in a relationship of mine is far too important to me and a good mother, than a person who doesn't wish to mention to others the package deal.

The voice of reason has made its presence felt. True, true, true....no one needs or wants to be a rebound...and a child needs stability...speaking from experience |
