Dear Stephen Shirley, my boyfriend of two years 12 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: has been talking about marriage, but I hate all of 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: his family and friends. We're both thirty three years old 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: and we met online. I got offered a job promotion 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: and a transfer to the city where my boyfriend grew up. 16 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: We decided I'd take the job and we get married, 17 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: so we relocated to the city that he grew up in. 18 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: We bought a house within a week of moving, and 19 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: it all happened. After we got settled, he decided it 20 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,559 Speaker 1: was time for me to meet his parents. They don't 21 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: live together, but they are married, he said, it's complicated. 22 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: I thought it was strange that I'd never met them, 23 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: but he always said there's no rush. Now I know why. 24 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: So here's what happened to make me hate everyone. We 25 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: invited everyone out to dinner, and the only way to 26 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: get his family to go was to agree to go 27 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 1: to a buffet restaurant. I don't like eating at buffets, 28 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: and it's not because I'm busgie. It's because I got 29 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 1: very sick one time from eating at a buffet, and 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: that has scarred me for life. Two of my boyfriend, 31 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: two of my boyfriend's childhood friends came to dinner with us, 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: along with his mom, dad's sister, and his sister's four children. 33 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: His homeboy smelled like they work at a weed factory 34 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: and they were wrapping illicit lyrics at the table. His 35 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: parents got into an argument because his dad called his 36 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: mom a trick and she flipped him off. I won't 37 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: even mention the four little, filthy children, and that we're 38 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: running all around the restaurant. My boyfriend paid the bill 39 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: for all these grown people, and he looks so embarrassed. 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: He's whispered that he hopes this isn't a deal breaker. 41 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't want any of these people to ever come 42 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: to our house. But how do I tell him that 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: he's not at all like him like them? So do 44 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: you think he will understand if I'm honest, Well, yeah, 45 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I think he'll understand. But I don't think you should 46 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: tell him that. You definitely can't tell him in that 47 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: way that you don't ever want them to come to 48 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: your house. You got to remember you're marrying him and 49 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: not his family, and we know you hate all of 50 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: them and you don't care for them. But like I said, 51 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 1: please don't tell him that. I mean, you can think 52 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: of other ways to say it, you know, or if 53 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: they're or if they're coming over you know you're busy, 54 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: or whatever the situation. I mean, there are still his 55 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: family no matter what. The great part, you know, look 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 1: at the positive. He wanted you to meet them. Okay, 57 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: it was about time you met his family. And that's 58 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: pretty big because here's a man taking you to meet 59 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: his family. A lot of times that's what we want 60 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: to meet his family and to see you know where 61 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: he comes from. So that means he wants you to 62 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: be a part of his family. Okay, so that's a 63 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: good thing. He is embarrassed by them, though. He is 64 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: embarrassed and it doesn't sound like they'll be coming around 65 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: because he's embarrassed, and it took you a while to 66 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: meet them in the first place. He knows how they 67 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: are because he said he hoped you weren't. They weren't 68 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: a deal breaker meeting them. So we can't pick our 69 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: family members, we know that, but we can decide how 70 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: we deal with them. So you decide. You make the 71 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: decisions of you know, if and when they come to 72 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: your house and how that's gonna play out and all that. 73 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean. Otherwise, if you love this man, you know 74 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to deal with his family at some point, 75 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: So you know your options are to what sell your 76 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: new house that you just bought in the town he 77 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: grew up in. I doubt if that's going to happen, 78 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: you know, because you guys just bought it. Housing market 79 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: is crazy all that. The other thing is, you know, 80 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: you guys can build a life together. You know when 81 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: you do get married. It sounds like you're headed in 82 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: that direction. This is the man you love. Build a 83 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: life together with this man, and to have minimal contact 84 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: with his family. Don't invite them over. Steve this one 85 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: is interesting. Everybody got some family members and they own 86 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: family that they don't really care for. So I can 87 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: only imagine that Dad's gonna be some people in their family, 88 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: your spouse, mate, love or friend, fiance, whatever in their 89 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: family that you're not gonna like.

We bought a 99 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: house within a week of moving. It all happened quickly. 100 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: And then right after y'all got son or he decided 101 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: it was time for me to meet his parents.

I don't like 170 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: eating at buffet's because I'm not budget. It's just because 171 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: I'm very sad. I got sick one time from eating 172 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: at a buffet, and that has scarred me from life. 173 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: Nothing stops big people from eating at a buffet. They 174 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: had all been sick. They had all seen people pick 175 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: over the food they and seen people talk under the 176 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: shield while they're getting their food. But big people can 177 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: they as they have seen the sneezes they have done 178 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: all that they cough they but big people don't give 179 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 1: a damn cause buffet's is for big people.

Thus the other reason we 182 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: got to go to a buffet case we got the munchies. Now, 183 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: see this buffet is all coming together now, and they 184 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: were rapping explicit lyrics at the table.

His parents got in the argument because the 189 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: dad called his mama a trick and she flipped him off. Off. Nah, 190 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: we're getting into why they don't live together. Real big 191 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: ass people don't like staying together because it ain't a 192 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: lot of room. They after buffet. They can't stay in 193 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: each other. See, the argument was a flip off because 194 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: that's all she had the energy fault. She was big. 195 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: She'd got to walk around there and said what you say, 196 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: but she crossed the table. She couldn't get up, so 197 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: she just flipped him off because she big, she had 198 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: the table and that's and he knew she wasn't gonna 199 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: get up. That's why he called her a trick in 200 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: front of everybody. But he got the trick from the 201 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: two little rapper friends because they was probably doing a 202 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 1: trick that it Son, this is terrible.
