    Hahahaha. It’s just a date mate, why not go for it?

    Its more typical to be introduced to partners through social media or friends than from family where I live but all sorts of cultures do it in all sorts of ways. You set your own boundaries. If you feel like your dad is overstepping there are plenty of ways to go about it. Parents are naturally concerned for their kids and the world we live in pushes young people to stay at home longer and push back starting a family. That can be very concerning for parents who grew up without such socioeconomic pressures.

    Typically the way I go about things with my parents (and all people in general) is I don’t mention things I don’t want them involved with.
