My SO's parents are very old school and want him to marry a Serbian woman. He doesn't want to. He would much rather be with some like me (his own words). I have met his parents a few times and there doewsn't seem to be an issue but I know what they think. Any ideas? Anyone else have this issue? My parents like him.

I dont have exactly the same issue, but my SO's parents want him or would like him to marry a Greek/Orthodox girl and Im none of that. Im Puerto Rican and not Orthodox. I havent have the opportunity to meet all of his family members. When went to his house his mom didnt want to come out to meet me, his sister came out of the house, but didnt even look at me. I wasnt invited to go inside the house or anything.

We do have future plans of getting marry someday and have a life together. Yet have NO idea how this would be. He says that doesnt care about what his family thinks/says cause he knows me, how and who I am and value me for that.

Guess cant give you an advise or help, but definately in a similiar situation. You are not alone

It's nice to know I am not alone in this. Seems the only differences we have is that mine is an only child so no siblings to meet, his friends all like me (actually said I was cool in my presence, and the sister of one friend agrees) and I have met his parents. It's just that I know what they prefer him to do and so does my SO. He was born here, his parents weren't. So he doesn't see the issue thankfully for me. I really hope the parents in both our situations have ..... well not the sense really..... maybe the realization that you can't help who you love and try to accept whoever thier sons choose regardless of whether they are the same ethnicity or religion as long as they are happy. Isn't that the main thing?
