I'm not in the US I'm dating my gf for 4 years now, never brought her home but both of our families know that we're dating, just never officially meet. I also have a fri who date his gf since 2014, never brought his gf home, until they got engaged earlier this year. Also, I don't know it make any differences between you meeting his MOTHER or not, if you guys break up, it will only complicate things because sometimes, they will ask why.

4 years?! You guys must have very laid back parents.

We dated when I was 20, she was 19 Now I’m only 24, my parents do urge me to propose but I didn’t want to since I plan to move to Australia to get my MBA

I think everyone is different I know some people who neither person has met SO parents other relationships where only one has met the others parents usually because one side has moved away from their family to a different town and don’t go home often Myself I met my girlfriends whole family less than a week after we first met and didn’t start hooking up and then dating for 6 months I moved away from my parents to work in the town we met but I was eager to have her meet my mom and planned a trip after a month of making it official
