ok chamberqueen, Your relationship with your Master and mine with the one who owns me are similar in a lot of ways. As far as what I'd tell my parents, I would NOT tell them that he doesn't want to meet them. They would only take that personally and I don't blame them. So, tell them he's swamped at work, or whatever, that he's busy as all get out and sends his regards and that he hopes you all have a great visit but he's sorry, he can't make it at this time. Or don't say anything at all. Simply shrug and if they ask, say that you hadn't made any plans with him, perhaps the next time. And if they want to push the issue, laugh, and joke about not being 16 anymore, so it's not like you have to get this cleared with them or you're grounded. But be sure to keep laughing to take the sting out of the words. juliet

quote: ORIGINAL: chamberqueen How do you handle it when your parents want to meet your Master? My father is 70, my stepmother older, but they want to meet the "special" man in my life. We don't live together, and I have explained to them that it is not a romantic relationship but one more based on me not wanting to be alone at my age (47). Anyone else have to deal with this? Well if you are comfortable with them meeting then why not do it? If its someone you are going to be dating for a while then I think it makes sense for them to know who you are spending your time with (and them meeting him doesn't mean you are gonna go out and get married). C~ Edited to add: I read the rest of the thread - if he doesn't want to meet them just tell them he's swamped and unavailable but maybe another time.

I can only surmise that even though you say it is not a romantic relationship, saying it's a relationship based on you not wanting to be alone tells them he's special to you, and simply want to meet him. Go out to dinner, have some fun. I think it's only normal for them to want to meet someone who is a step up from just a casual date. I'm 48, and I dearly wish my parents were around to meet my Deanna. I was very close to my parents, and I loved that they always took an interest in the special people in my life, regardless what my attachment was to them. Some of my fondest memories are times of them meeting best friends, military buddies, schoolmates, someone who I was in love or falling in love with, etc. anyone that was just a little more special in my life. So go with the thought it's just nothing more than that, and I think you will find your parents just simply still care about you, and want to see the happiness this gentleman brings to your life, even if it's not romantically inclined. edited for typo

I can understand your master's hesitation. "Meeting the Parents" can all kinds of connotations in our culture. When Master flew me from south Fl to Pittsburgh just to meet His Mother, I was terrified. Not to meet her (she's lovely), but because everyone we knew was hinting to me that Master would ask me to marry Him after the meeting. That is someplace I am NOT ready to go (and may never be). I told Him my fears and He assured me He would not put me in that position. The visit was great- after we all knew exactly what the expectations were. Funny, when Master met my Mother (and she has a good idea of our dynamic), it was no big deal for Him at all. (He's confident like that [:D])
