How do you announce your new relationship to family and friends?
Cupid’s Advice:
Being in a new relationship is an exciting time in your life, but how do you deal with the anxiety of telling your friends and family about the new relationship? Cupid has some advice for you:
1. Parents: Visit your parents in person if you can, if not pick up the phone and call. Announcing that you are in a new relationship to your parents can be the scariest announcement of them all, but if they show support and are happy for you, you will feel less anxious about the new relationship.
2. Close friends and family: Try to plan a dinner party. This is an easy, exciting, fun way to get the news out there. Also, it gives your friends and family a chance to meet your new partner.
3. Outsiders: For co-workers and friends you haven’t been in contact with in a while aren’t as important as your close family and friends. But if you want to announce your new relationship put it on Facebook and show them how happy and excited you are to be in a new relationship.
