My parents/friends agree with me on your flaws
Perhaps they do! But you have to understand that your partner is very sensitive to what your circle thinks of him. I mean, think about it: do you think his parents think that you are perfect? Probably not. But it would be very hard for you to hear exactly what they think is wrong with you. You don’t have that built-in comfort with your partner, from whom you can take a little criticism. If you heard your partner’s parents thought you were a little selfish or a little uneducated, you’d never feel comfortable having dinner with them again. Think about that before telling your partner what your family thinks about him even if it would help you win an argument.
