I really do not understand my parents way of thinking.. At all.
I told my mom today how I am gonna pick up Charlie from John's house so that I can watch him for a while, then Emilie's brother will watch him for us.. she was like.. Us? you act like you are a couple.. Uhhhhh we are a couple..
She goes on to say if my dad heard me talk this way he would be so upset.. wth? really? then shes like.. what, are you sleeping around!?.. REALLY MOM!? who do you think I am? sleeping around? GAH.
He's my boyfriend, my love. The one I want to spend the rest of my life with. Just because we are dating and are a couple doesn't mean we are sleeping around.. and just because we are dating, doesn't mean he is just like my past boyfriends who dumped me. They just don't ever understand what I am going through..
I can't wait for the day when we decide to tell them that we are very serious and do wanna get married..
and I have really been considering converting my religion to Coptic Orthodox for John when we get married in the future. He's known that his whole life, and has been going to his church his WHOLE life.
Me on the other hand, I love my religion, I really do. I enjoy being catholic, but I just don't go to church as often as I would like, and I haven't gone to the same church since I was born. So for me, to give it up for something that might actually be better for me, and is also VERY similar to what I already believe, wouldn't be a sacrifice maybe.
I can't waittt to see what they say or do when I tell them this.
I love my parents.. but seriously.. they need to just calm down about most things.
