Should Mr. Tau care?

Ohhhh -- Not cool.
I suppose it depends on your relationship stage. If you guys are really serious he needs to be able to defend you to his family. If he can't do it now, he'll never do it.

Then, it also depends who it is;
If they are old great aunts who are stuffy who you will never see (unless they die and leave you money -- esp if they leave you money), then let them believe whatever they want. Just don't send them pictures.

If they are people that you will see, then it's really bad.
