He isnt exactly racist or anything, we have a lot of black/mexican/asian you name it friends, and lost of christian, mormon, atheist friends, he just doesnt want to mix blood or anything shrug
-
Is it worth it?
-
So he's a purist.
Sounds like an Arian(sp?) to me. Not saying he is though.
God pursists are annoying.... -
...Arian was the race hitler was trying to make with blond haird blue eyed people...
-
I also hear their purist bastards as well.
-
The Nazis, who considered themselves Aryan, didn't believe in race mixing. Java_Addict's father doesn't believe in religion mixing. But I don't think he wants to incinerate people of the "wrong" religion. Just not date his daughter.
-
Exactly, hes fine with my brother dating his buddhist jappaneise girlfriend (they're engaged) just not, me

Ok, So last night he came and had dinner at my parents house. The look on my dads face was, well jaw down to the carpet and eyes out of his head. But, he kept it together and was polite thru the whole evening, even made some pleasant conversation and didnt pull me aside. Normally I talk to my dad like every day, but today my mother keeps telling me that he's out, or hes doing something or other. Is he ever gonna talk to me again?
-
Well, it seems to have gone over well. Your dad probably just needs some time to sort things out in his mind (although that's just my guess). Best of luck to you and your boyfriend.
-
I am really glad dinner went as well as it did hon. There could be a lot of reasons why your dad hasn't spoken to you.....tho I can see why you are concerned.Hes your dad and he loves you, and at the end of the day he wants to see you happy (thats all most parents want for thier kids) He might be a bit pissed that you didn't tell him about your BF, and probably feels he was put in a situation he didn't want to be in, cos you hadn't. But give him a little while to calm down, and to think things through. Men definitly go about things differently to women, he will hide away in his cave (every man has one) for a while, sorting his head out.......he definitely WILL talk to you again hon, just give him a bit of time hugs
-
Nice advice, I wish I was able to say something like that.
-
My father talked to me today (thank god i was beginning to think he had a heart attack and my mother was hiding it from me) He said that he will be able to deal with it, but "Let it be known your family didn't make it this far from all the troubles that our people have had to show your ancestors such great disrespect. There should be no marrige with out my blessing and if i should die with out giving my blessing, dont disrespect that." In my head i was scream "FOR GODS SAKE IM JUST DATING HIM!" i have no plans of getting married....ever (or any time soon)
-
Glad to hear your dads talking to you again, tho I think you knew he would Once out of his cave, he HAD to give you the lecture he did, for his own peace of mind, cos that is what he will have been thinking, not that you were just dating, but it will have gone through the whole secenario, dating, the wedding, children of mixed colour (what will people say) etc etc etc. Its just a dad/man thing. Now you can relax a bit and enjoy your relationship with both your BF and your dad YAY hugs
-
Thanks hugs its such a relief, and today i know that james will be happy to hear it
-
Seriously, your father sounds just like Tevye. All in all things went as well as you could have hoped.
