Happy Thanksgiving...
What do you do when your family doesn't like your boyfriend?
It's like, they don't outright hate him and don't say stuff to indicate they don't like him, so I can't outright talk to them about it. But little things that are so passive aggressive happen. I invited him over for Thanksgiving dessert because my mom said I could. Then he wasn't able to make it. Now he is. So I re-invited him. My mom said I could, but then she got real snippy and sarcastic with me after that. I'm sick of this! I've heard the reasons my mom doesn't love him. They're valid, I've listened, I've talked to Alex. I almost broke up with him once because of it. But it's been 2 years and I'm not a stupid little girl who's gonna get in a situation I can't get out of. I'm sick of having to eat shit about going out with this guy. I'm sick of knowing that my family doesn't like him because he's different than us.
This is my life, not yours, and I'm not throwing it away on some loser, regardless of what you think. I thought you had more faith in me than that. Guess not. Thanks a lot.
