Earlier on today I was surfing on the internet for want of what to discuss and I grabbed an article by some dude called Joro Olumofin who doesn’t think
dating someone shouldn’t be a family affair and I quite think otherwise…
Well, before I give you reasons why I think otherwise, lets read out
the whole article.
Should
relationships be a family affair?
This is
one of the most common questions in couples therapy and counseling because
Family plays a major role in the success or failure of a relationship…
I must
also state that there is no fixed solution or approach towards this question or
phenomenon; Should you date your boyfriend’s/girlfriend’s family too? This is
because it is relative i.e. families differ, personalities differ, and societal
frameworks differ so there is no generalized solution but only a situational
solution.
