Just a quick survey. How long do you wait before introducing your guy/girl to your family and friends?

My distraction and I are at a serious point of contention over this issue. I feel that it's cool to meet friends after dating a little bit. But, I just do not bring people around the fam. We have to be VERY serious (MAIN REASON: my family is crazy! i have to be sure you won't leave me after meeting them!)


Anyway, what's a reasonable amount of time: a month...3 months...longer?
This was a BIG area of contention with me and an ex. We had only been dating for maybe a month and he was wanting to me my family. I was like "umm, no, I don't just bring any and everybody to meet my folks". Believe me it was a huge source of tension.

I eventually caved in after 3 months, but my ideal time is about 6 months to a year as well.
