How to Win His Parents’ Approval





We up broke four times. Now his parents hate me. How can I win back their approval? – Liza, Los Angeles, CA

Normally, it’s best to keep his parents out of your relationship, but all the breakups have made you a fair target. It’s worth sitting down with them. They may be open to hearing your positive feelings toward their son. Acknowledge that the relationship has been rocky and say that you’re committed to a happier pairing this time. If you did things they find unforgivable, express your remorse but focus on the future. If they still seem cold, remember: The best way to win them over is by letting them see your new, solid relationship for themselves.
