If you are doing so well as you say I'm sure your parents will understand that you are a responsible young man capable of making his own relationship decisions. Not to offend you but in my culture it would be very strange for 22 to need permission. I suggest asking your parents to come to dinner with you guys and introduce her (tell them before you goto dinner lol.)

Tell them, if they argue just ignore it.
If they argue very badly tell them to fuck off.

If they are very persistant in being annoying tell them they really should stop if they want to remain on good term with you, tell them you're twenty two and baby sitting is over.

If everything fails tell your parents a man of this age need to put his dick somewhere to not turn mad and be able to actually focus on something else. Really, sex at this age for a boy is the best thing for him to stop thinking about it... just as long as you do not give her too much time saboting your study time and stuff. If they do not understand facepalm and worry about their own sexlife

I was in a similar position when I was 17. Except it was more like "Hey mom & dad, I was dating this person for 2 years and then we broke up a few months ago....now I'm dating someone else! Surprise!"

I also come from a conservative Asian family, and my parents took it surprisingly well. Turns out they sort of knew/guessed I was dating someone anyway. It's difficult to hide secrets for that long from your parents lol.

Just casually tell them you're dating someone, and that you've been with her for 2 years. If they flip out, point out that your marks have not dropped at all in the past 2 years so they really have nothing to worry about. I imagine they would be a little miffed at first, but they'll accept it eventually.

I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Soon to be a TL help give me advice I just broke up blog...

I would tell them and if they have issues with it, then I guess they will have to live with your decision.

Every single girl I've gone out with has been white (I'm Korean). My parents didn't really like my first 'serious' girlfriend at first, but they warmed up to her when they saw that she was not a threat to my education or lifestyle, and that she was a genuinely nice girl. I think I "revealed" my secret to my parents 2 months into it, and even then I felt bad. I felt like a coward because I wasn't respecting my girl, bowing down to my parents authority and judgement.

It doesn't matter what your parents think. Two years is far too long. If you really cared, respected, and loved her, it should've happened much earlier in your relationship. It's only fair for her to be acknowledged as an important part of your life.

this actually made me burst out laughing and is probably more accurate than you'd think. While not having a girlfriend is probably their wish, every dad secretly wonders if their kid is a closet case if they aren't ever bringing women around.

lol @ being 22 and afraid to tell your parents something, that is an interesting aspect of life that inclines me to want to meet more asian people as their numbers are quite small here.

anyways

just DO IT, when you tell them you've been dating for 2 years there's nothing they can say. Well i mean any irrational person could try, but they'd look like an idiot
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Um... you might wanna tell them... like, about now.

You probably already know the results of waiting too long to tell a secret, judging by my own Asian parents.

And I thought my (caucasian) parents were relatively strict.

Don't do this, bad advice. Should always show respect to your parents, why bring in the negativity?

I think you just gotta tell them straight up. The sooner the better at this point.

Let's just do the exercise of weighing the consequences. What is going to happen if you tell them?

Are they going to yell at you? Fuck it just let them yell to their hearts content. Don't bother arguing back, it's a pointless endeavor. Logical arguments do not apply.

Are they going to try and force you to break up with her? Do they have any kind of leverage on you? At your age, I assume any leverage that they have is not nearly substantial enough.

Are they going to disown you? If so, then fuck them, they're douches.

Tell them you're engaged to her, either they'll freak or they'll ask when will you be having a baby. You know them asian parents love having grandkids.

Your parents, are going to kill you if you had a white girlfriend, but I think you actually need to tell them! Good job though!
I have an announcement to make, "Moo!" That is all.

Best advice so far. Hopefully this doesn't turn into a typical TL fail girl blog.
