Today, I am terrified my boyfriend's family will find a better match for him when they go to India this winter. It won't be hard; I'm white. TMDL

Wow, if I had a gf I would never leave her to marry someone I barely know. Ok lets say I do, I would still never do. My parents are fine with me having a gf(I don't have one yet) but we won't be able to kiss in front of them, but we would be able to hold hands and stuff. I feel bad for you, if he loves/likes you, he will never let you go. I know I wouldn't. GL with your life, and never date a person you unless you know they won't leave you.

Better match? Does that imply his family is aware of your relationship with him? If they are, and by the sound of it, have accepted it..then don't worry! I'm sure his parents would keep your relationship in mind while in India. If they don't however, then the parents have all right to look for possible relationships for their *single* and *available* son. But don't put yourself down for being white! i just hope your boyfriend has told his parents about this relationship otherwise, I would suggest finding a boy who is so sure he is in love with you and just doesn't want to waste time with you that he would tell his parents about your relationship! And if they still disaprove..then just remember parents only want their child's happiness and if he strongly loves you, you both will be able to convince them! Good luck!

The fact that your parents know him, and his parents don't even just know you, they have met you and allow you to see each other speaks wonders. Relax. Even if someone in his family suggests someone for arrangement, it is HIS choice to accept it or not. They cannot force him or drag him anywhere. As long as you two stay in an honest and decent relationship with full respect for each other and his family, there is little reason to think that they would suddenly withdraw their consent. You two stay together long enough, then you have a very high chance of getting not just their blessing, but encouragement to get married.

Okay - here's a little unasked for, yet attemptively objective advice. He's worth it if he stands upto the matrimonial pressure his parents my put on him. If he doesn't has the spine enough to stand up for his relationship, I don't know if you want to be Mrs. Noballz.
