    I can take my partner home and we can sleep in the same room, but must sleep in different beds – we abide by this.

    My partner is 25 yrs older than me (parent’s age) so she has some understanding with where they are coming from… But that doesn’t mean they are the nicest to her.

    I can’t take myself home for the holidays.

    Cindy: Sorry to hear that. I hope you have friends you can spend the holiday with.

    Dawn: People STILL do the separate beds thing?

    @Genie
    Oh yea – my parents sleep in different rooms! Mom is a light sleeper and dad snores. The beds are downstairs and they are singles

    I can take my honey home. We’ve never really spoken about me being out among my family, but whenever we do spend the night, we sleep in my old room, in my twin bed, together…and lock the door.
    We don’t kiss and hold hands in front of the elders though.

    Aw Cindy :( *hug*

    I can take my partner home with me to all holidays. I don’t care what my family thinks, and she’s going to come with me whether they like it or not. She’s a part of my life, and I want to spend holidays with her.

    But on the other side, I’m not usually invited to her family’s holiday get togethers. Because she is worried about what the grandparents will think. I went home for thanksgiving and I was considered the “roommate.” I’m not invited to Christmas because I guess its for married single or married couples only. Which is BS. But I have to respect my partners choices, I may not be happy about it. But I’m not going to force anything on her that she’s not ready for.
