If you can't get your gf to go see a simple movie /w you due to an rather ignorant and controlling mom, what about other matters you two will be discussing in the future that will have real relevance such as kids? Where you'll live? The lifestyle?

I've always had the motto: Let people live the way they want to live because I strongly belive in individuality and such, but if you cant' compromise /w a future partner in life about something as simple as going to the movie.......well..........I see troubles brewing ahead.

Ditto what everyone said: Live /w it or get out of it.

If you do get married and have children she will do her best to shelter them the same way. If you feel angry at your gf's mother, you will feel the same about your gf.

I read your pm, and sent you a reply based on what you had said there...but now I must reconsider. With what you have said here, it is plain that there is NO hope that she will respect you.

I stopped reading this thread right here, cause I had all the information I needed:


<< Also, about her father. He is a very nice man, and the impression I get is that he has been whipped by her mother. >>



Get OUT! Get out NOW! The girl is only going out with you because her mother approves of your relationship. Her mother sees enough of her FATHER in you to think that you would be someone they could whip into submission. If her mother thought you were your own man, she would make sure that the daughter has NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!!!!!

Unless you want to be some pssy whipped candy ass who pees sitting down.

Be a man, and walk!

tread carefully,

I think that everyone has made good points,

you obviously care for her, but can you find a way to deal with her conservative viewpoints. I think that getting her away from her mother for a while and trying to moderate her views by slowly showing her some of these so called satanic books might be very helpful.
