I have been dating this girl for almost three years now. This is also totally unbeknownst to her parents. She was my best friend for 9 years before that. I love her with all my heart and really want to spend the rest of my life with her. There is a problem though, her parents extremely dislike me. Now i am not a creep or a punk or jerk or anything like that. I dress well (not like a grungy teenager) I have been going to a JC getting some GE out of the way before transfering to where i am now. I am not unreliable. I have never been mean to her or any of her family. Her dad is hard to talk to at times, i will open up to him and try to talk to him but he closes me out. Her mom, i thought liked me, but recently i found out she doesnt. I dont know why they dont like me, my girlfriend says they say it is cause they think i am going nowhere in life. I dont know how to win them over, does anyone have any advice for me at all? Please help me.

"they say it is cause they think you are going nowhere in life" So start menitioning some business books you are reading and start carrying them around.

What does this mean?

"I have been going to a JC getting some GE out of the way before transfering to where i am now. "

What is JC & GE?

Definately start talking about what you are doing now for your future. Mention your plans, goals, etc. If this is the real reason they dislike you, then you hopefully should slowly win them over when they see you going through with what you have told them.

I am agree with, Cblack0127! you should doing the same work as your parents like,in this way they slowly turn towards you.

The fact that they are willing to talk to you at all (even if somewhat reluctantly) means that there is hope
Like bigbill said, try to convince them (especially through actions, not just words) that you know what you're doing, and that you'll be able to make their daughter happy.
