How to reassure parents that my gf is not a gold digger?

[mrking33]

I know what you all might be thinking when I say that I met my gf through a dating site, that she’s a gold digger or something. You all may be thinking about how she may be after my wallet and bank account instead of loving me but I honestly don’t believe that. I was skeptical at first but my mind changed after I met her. I tried reassuring my parents about our relationship and her feelings for me but they just don’t believe me and I’m pretty sure I’ll get comments who would also agree with my parents here. But I just really need all the help i can get. My friends didn’t really seem to help nor did my siblings. Can someone here in the forums help me out with this please?

Only way their minds are going to change are from being around the two of you together, and seeing that the love you have is genuine.
So, no way to really do that while she lives abroad. Long distance relationships are tricky like that. Maybe she should come for a visit, paid for equally by the two of you, rather than you just paying for her to come down. Show that she's willing to put her own time and money into making things work.

Your parents can't be sure she isn't a gold digger over-night. It will take time, and she needs to prove it to them over time by her actions.

You need to listen to your parents concerning this issue. They can see what you can't see because you are simply overwhelmed with emotions. You emotions have blinded you from seeing the reality and that's why you must follow your parents advice.

Most of these Dating tours are people looking to use you. Why not find a local girl? How long have you actually been in presence? Dude I am sorry I think every post that mentions dating tours is just that advertisements for them. In the past 2 years on relationship forum boards I have heard of this 2 times and this page almost every post is about that. So Forgive me if I am wrong but I think the post is fake.

Has she asked you for money or made is clear that she expects things far beyond her ability to provide them for herself? If so she may be a gold-digger.

If not, just because you met her on a dating site, that is no indication that she's only after your money. Be clear though . . . was this a dating site like POF, OKCupid, Match, etc. or was it some foreign dating service where you go to another country in search of a mail order bride? If the latter she may very well want a green card & will accept any man willing to give it to her.

If she's just a normal woman, convince your parents to spend more time with her.
