from what i have been seen its disrespectful to show any form of affection in front of parents..but i'm not sure if saying 'seni seviyorum' is included in that..

As far as i seen and experienced, the turkish boys/men are reserved in showing or expressing affection towards their girlfriend in public places or in the presence of family..

I have to disagree with you Robyn, as it is not a general rule in Turkiye or in another country..In some cases, meeting the parents means that the relationship is serious and maybe its leading to marriage..but i know a case when the girl met the boy's parents and few months later, they broke up..I think we shouldn't generalize things that we don't know, as each person is different than another one, so are the relationships
Anyway, Vickysmith, i wish you all the happiness in the world and the best!
