Should You Bring Your New Guy Home for Thanksgiving?

Making the decision about whether or not to invite your new boyfriend home for Thanksgiving is definitely not an easy one to make. Dating experts at YourTango recommend that you ask yourself 5 important relationship questions before inviting anyone home for the holidays.How Long Have You Been Dating? The shorter the time you've been dating the more likely it is he won't be the same boyfriend you have next holiday season. Is it worth the potential discomfort of bringing someone who your family will never see again?

How Committed Are You? If you're only casually dating or you're seeing more than one person at a time, don't don't bring anyone home. Go alone and spend some quality time with old friends and family.

Is He Really Serious About You? If the answer to this doesn't instantly roll off your tongue, then it's probably better to go home alone.

How Formal Is Your Family? If Thanksgiving is a casual affair, leave the decision up to him and don't sweat it.

What's Your Life Stage? The younger you are, the longer you should date before requesting family holiday time from your man.
