My parents are not in a condition to meet my fiance's parents since they are divorced. Any input?

My parents are divorced. I don't speak to my father and my mother has a depression. My fiance's family is well intact-family, very traditional. I feel very insecure on my side of family. I try to be nice to his parents and all, but I feel very insecure sometimes. Anyone had similar experience? I hope I am not the only one.

if the topic comes up.... just tell the truth..... My parents are divorced, and I really don't have a relationship with my father.





even though your mother is struggling with depression, doesn't mean she can't meet people.... nor that you should be embarrassed or insecure about it.... just tell his parents that your mother has depression.My parents are not in a condition to meet my fiance's parents since they are divorced.

Trust me you are far from alone. My step daughter was married last year and parents on both sides were divorced. We all got together for this special occassion and actually had a great time spending time together. Do not feel embarrassed by your life circumstances it does not reflect on you at all. Best of luck.
Wow, ashamed of your own family. That's harsh. When families go through hard times they need to count on the support of family members not rejection. I've got to say that if you are afraid that your future in-laws will judge your parents then they are very shallow people. and what are they going to think of you if you don't show pride in your family. None of us have the perfect life, but it's how we present ourselves that matters. Introduce your parents with the love of a daughter and trust that they will know how to act.

No, my wife is in the same situation as you.





Look, everyone has skeletons, no one is perfect. Every family has something that they view as bad.





And quit being so darned insecure. Who the hell cares if anyone judges you based on your family. Seriously, if your fiance is in love with you, none of this crap matters.





Your families are the past, he is the future.
It doesn't matter, they are who they are and people go through hard times in life. Your fiance and your parents deserve to meet each other, it's not for you to decide if they are in the right place in their life to meet. If you are worried about your fiance judginig them then he shouldn't be your fiance.
My family is a mess...I was blessed with my in-laws...I used to feel like I could never ';fit'; with his family...but you know what they love me now and I actually have a great relationship with my mother-in-law....You should never be ashamed about where you come from...be proud that you lifted yourself about the craziness and be proud of yourself...remember it takes everything you go through to be the great person your fiance loves...
just .. have a day were your mum and dad see each other .. with you only and see if thay get along if so you have nothing to worry about .. if not then tell them dad could not make it easy .. dont you think ..i hope it help you..
Sheesh Lots of people come from divorced families. that doesnt mean that you shouldnt introduce your fianc茅es family to them. They dont have leprosy, do they?
