GF wants to invite her parents to my grad party but they were a roadblock.. (dating, wife)

[leadingedge04]

Saturday I will be graduating with my B.S. and my family plans on throwing a little party for me. My gf wants to invite her parents, but I don't want them there. They were only a roadblock when it came to college. I couldn't do homework at her house, as her parents would fight and scream (at the top of their lungs) while I was trying to do reading and studying. When they weren't fighting, the tv was blasting (her mom told her dad to turn it down as I was doing homework, her dad said "yeah..me too"), and her mom would not stop talking to me and trying to have a conversation with me while I was trying to work.

I'd only like to invite the people that inspired, encouraged and helped me through college, how do I bring this issue up or is it best to just stay quiet and enjoy my party?

I think if you have future plans with this gf then you should invite them. It would be a sore point later on if you didn't.

if you just see her as a temporary gf then no need to bother with her parents at that point.

Were you living with your gF and her parents? Why in the world were you at her house studying? If I needed to study I'd be at my dorm or at the library or a nice quiet cafe... not at my bf/gf house.

A roadblock for your studies? Come on... you put yourself in their vicinity when you could have easily been somewhere else.

Invite them! Maybe the party will be livelier. Don't invite them and you'll have a serious roadblock...

Seriously? Its your gf's parents. The other posters are right

Do you want your g/f to cook for you in the future?
Would you like her to rock your world in the sack occasionally?
Would you like a nice,sweet woman for a wife or a b*tch?
Things you need to consider before you dont invite her parents!

Her parents (dad mainly) sound like jackasses, but it doesn't sound like they were intentionally trying to sabotage you. Man up, be the adult and invite them, and let the issue go.

I just love that sense of entitlement you have going there

So let me get this straight...your girlfriends parents were supposed to turn their home into a library and take a vow of silence just so that you could study and do homework there whenever you wanted??

And the fact they didn't means they were some kind of "roadblock" to you getting your degree???

REALLY?? SERIOUSLY??

PLEASE bring this issue up with your girlfriend right away She needs to know what kind of guy she's dating so that she can review her other options asap.

I would invite her parents if you and your girlfriend are serious. If they behave badly, it is of no reflection towards you. It is hard to say how they will actually behave at the party because the instances where you have seen them raise their voices and the like has been in a semi private setting. This will be a party where they will most likely be on their best behavior in public.
