On the other thread yagr pointed out that the way that this issue plays out can well be indicative of the issue resolution styles you both bring to the relationship. What do you think about being in a relationship with a person who resorts to an ultimatum at this stage of the discussion?

To what extent has be demonstrated an interest and concern for your perspective on this issue?

It seems to me that the ultimatum complicates the situation quite a bit. Now if you allow him to meet your family he can conclude that you capitulated. He can conclude that in the future he should use ultimatums or other forms of threats to get what he wants.

You might want to read a bit about emotional blackmail.
