Your family really should support you and your relationship with your boyfriend @positivity-vibes, let your parents know how much you love him and want to be with him, hopefully they will come to understand how happy he makes you once they meet him and everything will be OK, try to stay upbeat and keep going, you can do it, inbox me anytime if you want to chat or vent, stay strong, you are never alone (hugs)
@positivity-vibes as someone who went through the same (difference is my parents are catholic and portuguese) my advice is to not give a fuck. Your parents will always panic and go ”omg what will people think??”. That’s no way of living. From what I understood they are indians living in the UK. Is fine loving your culture but not judging the poor guy for not speaking hindi. He’s british he doesn’t need to feel obligated to learn. And if your family critizes him so poorly without a real reason, darling don’t listen. If you love him and he treats you right go ahead. Live your happy life by his side. Is 2018 , we’re not in 1920 . People need to change their mentality…
You can look at it as your parents are big adults, they are more familiar with the subject, and they’ll surely manage to find a way to deal with this, which is not your problem. @positivity-vibes
Thank you Oli, for them because, i am the eldest in the family, it seems really difficult for them to overcome this. They don’t want to meet him at all
Thank you so much! Literally, after reading your message I feel so much better, I agree we are in 2018 now and things change like you said it’s not 1920 so I am now just going to focus on making our future bright together!
