    Ask Gracelyn: How long should I wait before introducing my partner to my family?

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Dear Gracelyn: How long should I wait before introducing my partner to my family?

    Brittany V – The Town of The Blue Mountains

    Dear Brittany,

    The right time to introduce your partner to your family is approximately three business days after you’ve accidentally called them by your ex’s name, but at least two weeks before your mother starts sending you links to dating apps “just in case.”

    Jokes aside, there’s no universal timeline for this milestone! It depends on your relationship’s seriousness, your family dynamics, and how comfortable both you and your partner feel about taking this step. When you find yourself excited (rather than terrified) about them meeting each other, that’s usually a good sign you’re ready.

    Just remember: if your partner still doesn’t know about your childhood nickname “Stinky” and your family’s tradition of showing baby photos to every guest, maybe give them a heads-up before the big introduction!

    Be Happy,

    Gracelyn
