My advice WOULD have been to bring home some really skeezy types, absolute sketchballs, then they'd be beating a path to Pete's door. It worked in my case--my parents absolutely, one hundred percent disapproved of the first two people I had serious relationships with, though anyone short of a chaste corn-fed Lutheran-bred Minnesotan school teacher and/or farmer was not good enough for them. Now, however, they adore Greg--but as he pointed out the other day, if he had come first, they would've been completely nonplussed. But this is not an option for you, because it would involve dumping the awesome person you have and getting with a couple of crappy ones. Now, I'd say you basically have to wait it out, but what is it exactly that's going on? I was a little muddled on the details, but that seems like it might be intentional...
the basic "I don't feel comfortable with pete upstairs or in your room, you can't have him in the room after 9 even if other people ar up there with the door open thanks"
which is fine because its her house, but still. I feel like i'm 12.
Parents' objections to your sexual life can have different logic, be formulated in quite different terms. For example, it can be a kind of religious moral conservatism, personal attitudes to your partner, fear of public opinion, etc. Without clarifying this question you can get only abstract answers. But in any case try to have a talk with them in general terms, without connecting with specific events. Try to clarify their logic and change from inside!
