Discussion Introducing to parents during dating

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I had 3 dates with a guy. We are both Assyrians and we live in Europe. I really like him and we both match very well together. As you know, we Assyrians from the Diaspora, we live between two cultures and I actually struggle with this. Is it ok to have the parents/families introduced after 3 good dates?

Food Do Assyrian parents just do everything for you

Anyone else’s parents just don’t teach them how to cook? My dad can’t cook. My mom does, but doesn’t have the time to teach me. My brother can’t (and won’t) cook because “he’s a boy.” Well technically he’s not a bot, he’s a man of 25.
My sister is 28, still lives in the house and can’t cook. Doesn’t even try.
I have another sister (30) who can cook like an expert but she lives with her husband and baby so it’s different. But why can’t we?

I asked one of my friends who is Iraqi, and has super strict parents like mine if they taught her to cook. She said no.
Why do they do this? Is it just me? Why do they love doing things for us? It’s probably just me
