'Concerned' parents

I've just been dating a guy for a few weeks ,who is soo lovely ,we get on so good and everything but I keep getting a 'cold' reaction from my parents.

My last bf was an arsehole.(8 yrs ago) He treated me fairly bad and was a scrounger and when we broke up it was a nightmare ,my parents had to help me find somewhere else to live etc..... and they saw how hurt I was.

I've told my parents about this new bf and my dad hasn't said anything but just kinda shakes his head sometimes in 'disaproval' ( they not met him yet)
My mum says she is concerned incase he turns out like my bad ex ,ive said to her that he is nothing like him.

I try and tell them stuff about him but I still get cold reaction.
She also says that, we are going too fast with the relationship,i met him 6 weeks ago, meet up with him about once a week cos of distance. How is that fast?
Bf said that he would like to meet my parents to settle their minds but my parents don't want to meet him yet. =(

Why can't I just get a 'congratulations ,we're happy from you' from them? Oh no, they have to be like this =(

They'[re just doing my head in :kickingmyself:

No disrespect to your parents, but, forget your parents and what they think. It doesn't matter what they think. Your life and what you do with it belongs to you and ONLY you. If they never ever agree with your mate then that is ok cause your grown and you can do as you please. If they do someday like him then great. But they are being very childish cause they are hating a person they know absolutely nothing about. So that makes them a very poor judge of character. So forget them.....

Well, they're worried for you because they don't want to see you get hurt. It's normal after what happened.

Take it easy. Six weeks is not a very long time, give it a bit more.
