(Nick Galifianakis for The Post) | Carolyn Hax is away. The following first appeared April 15, 2007. Dear Carolyn: I have been dating a woman for six months. While we get along pretty well, we often argue about her parents. They call her at least five times per day. Once to wake her up, instead of an alarm, once when she's on the way to work, once driving home, once when safely inside, and once when she is going to bed. My girlfriend, 31, believes this is normal. I could not disagree more. Her parents routinely stop by, let themselves in, with or without permission, to stock groceries or drop off a work uniform that my girlfriend couldn't get the stains out of. If she stays over with me, her father calls her a slut. Her parents don't like me, and my girlfriend just goes along with what they tell her, or she makes up another guy's name just to get them to back off. Could you please address this overbearing couple? Not only do they make my relationship with their daughter tough, it makes their daughter dependent on them. What would happen if they suddenly died? — J.F. |
