Tanner C asks...
Tanner C问道:
"My parents don't like my new GF. How do I convince them to like her?"
“我父母不喜欢我的新女友。我怎么才能说服他们喜欢她?”
Well, Tanner, this is a tough one, kid.
Tanner,这是个非常难的问题。
Parents are never really gonna like anyone you bring into the house.
父母从来不会喜欢任何你带进家里的人。
Maybe it's time to rethink your girlfriend, because your parents-they normally want what's best—well, they want what's best for you.
也许现在是时候重新考虑一下你的女友了,因为你的父母希望你找到最适合你的人。
Your parents have been through this kind of thing before, so I'm pretty sure they have seen something in your girlfriend that they've noticed in their past. My last girlfriend was crazy, and I didn't find that out until after my parents told me.
你的父母以前一直这样做,所以我非常肯定他们在你女朋友身上看到了他们过去注意到的事情。我的前任女友非常疯狂,在我父母告诉我之前我完全没有发现。
Beg your parents. That's all I'm saying. Beg them.
求你的父母。这就是我能给你的全部建议。求他们。
Explain them what, uh... why she's so good that she's your girlfriend.
向他们解释,因为她很优秀,所以你想她当你女友。
Bring her around your parents. The pros of her personality should shine through the more they're exposed to her.
带她见你的父母。他们和她接触的越多,她性格中的优点应该越发光。
Lock the three of them in a room.
把他们三个人锁在一个房间里。
Force them to hang out with her enough to the point where they tolerate her, and then that toleration will turn into love.
强迫他们和她待在一起,直到他们可以忍受她,然后忍受就会慢慢转变成爱。
Have your girlfriend act the way that your parents would like.
让你女朋友用你父母喜欢的方式去表现。
Tell her to act friendly, and speak to your parents a little bit when they see her.
让她表现得友好一些,见到你父母时要多说一些话。
I think I would leave it to my girlfriend, if you believe in her, to convince them to like her.
我想我会让我女朋友去解决,如果你信任她,那就让她去说服你父母喜欢她。
Give it a minute and see if you can see what they're seeing. And if not, guess what. She's your girlfriend, not your mom's, not your dad's.
再等一下,看看你是否能看到他们看到的情况。如果不能,那怎么办?她是你的女朋友,不是你妈妈、也不是你爸爸的女朋友。
You could pretend and get a new girlfriend. But then you could still hang out with your old girlfriend. Wait, no, that's cheating.
你可以假装交了一个新女友。但是还和原来的女友在一起。等等,不对,这是欺骗。
