maybe they just want tall girl for their son because maybe they also like tall grandchildren. But its not just like that. You should make them realize that height doesn't have to do with love. Just be nice to them, when you visit them maybe you want to give them something, like cakes, and simple presents. And make them realize how much you love their son. When you're on a conversation with them try to say that to them. that you love their son so much and you can't live without him. by that time they should realize how much lucky their son to have you. Goodluck. And no i'm not a sis. I'm a bro..

Hello karenviv, i know i am just a boy, and not a sister :) But i can tell you my side, i date with a girl i really like, but my parents didn't like her, because she leaved far a way, and my parents told me the it will never work between us cause of the distance. So first time they saw her they were very cold to her and they didn't like her much, but after they knew her and they saw how cute and lovely and helping she was they start liking her too. So why be you need to let your boyfriend parents a little time to know you, continue be so nice try even more helpful and smile, do show them you think they don't like, show them you like them and my be they will like you back... Wish you happy day and i wish i helped a little bit, although i am a boy :)

I´m not sure I understand...but maybe you´re just trying too hard. And if you are, they can tell. When you act simply the way you are, even if you´re not the perfect, ideal person in the world, they´ll still like you. Parents are protective of their children, maybe they think you´re being different towards their son too. Just be yourself, if they like you the way you really are,fine,if not,i say it´s still fine. You´re still the one who gets to date that guy,not them. But at least have the ball in your court and be natural. That money thing may have been a test,too.
