The Family

DimHalo · 11-14-2004, 11:30 PM

Well, the title may not be that descriptive but I couldn't think of anything better.

This weekend I went to jeepnut's house which meant that I spent quite a lot of time with his family (for the first time), in comparison to before. I was a nervous wreck before we left to go there. But I had an awesome time. Did some sightseeing and saw some kid pics and other stuff.

What is everyone else's experience with this sort of thing? Anyone got any good stories about meeting your girlfriend/boyfriend's family for the first time?

Three years and running...

I thought you and Jeepnut were just friends? Man, where have I been these past three years, lol.

I love my parents in law!

They're great.

It's funny, they're so much nicer than my own parents... at least than my dad.

I feel very comfy when I'm at their place.

When did you get married?

My parents-in-law are cool. They always act like they don't want me around. Sometimes its really convincing, like their serious, but I don't let it get to me.

if things work out for me and happydude ....meet-the-parents-day is seriously not what im looking forward to...its not that i think theres anything wrong with happydude...hes eveyrthin i ever wanted
i just have this feeling my parents will have quite of a shock....and it wont b the 'happy'sort of shock either...my parents are conservative and very traditional....chinese.....
k first thing thats running into ur mind now is...*RACIST*!! lol...no...they dont have a problem with me being friends with multiple races...they like all races..they jsut think otherwise when it comes to relationships, getting married and things of that sort...they feel its the difference in culture and traditions that will cause unwanted issues in future...
i feel they are partially right...were brought up differently..but i guess we could learn to accept and adapt...*shrug*

Don't worry about it, HappyDudette.... They'll hopefully understand once they see you two together.

Conceited much?

My old best friends parents liked...nay..love me more than their own child. Its hilariously awesome. I can just throw it in his face, and instantly hes mad.

Like, one time we were at his house, his dad made rice (His dad is Japanese) and he asked if I wanted rice. I said yes. He gave me basically all of it...his dad fed me alot..but then when my friend asked his dad to get some for him he said "What? You can get it yourself!"

Hey, I don't make these kinds of comments to your posts. If I did, you'd get quite annoyed with me.

Besides, it's not my fault it's true.

Oh wait...
