Will our relationship last?
I am in a relationship with a mexican guy and my dad's realllllllllly racist (and can be violent), but the guy keeps asking to meet him anyway. I've told him how my dad acts, but he's still determined to meet. I love him, but I don't want him to be hurt by my dad. Plus with a nosy younger sister it would be impossible to continue to see each other and try keeping it secret from him.
Excuse me if I didn't make myself clear. I see the guy everyday. He just hasn't met my dad yet.

Tell him first. Then let them meet. I'm now married to a white guy and my dad told me everyday when I was growing up that I was to marry a hispanic guy...yea...nope. Tell your dad you really like this guy and you don't see color. I think that mindset was from like the 50's, 60's, & 70's. We ARE OVER THAT!!!

When this relationship with this individual blows up in your face and all over your body with irreparable damage done as it surely will, you will have no recourse but to suffer the most dire of circumstance alone as all anyone knowing the facts of your situation will ever say is "You got what you knowingly set yourself up for so quit complaining about the bed you made and just lay in it."

Stop using your computer as a weapon to shoot yourself in the foot with.

Cool, i like to pay attention approximately people who've been at the same time awhile. What concerns me is you have have not argued. regularly arguing slightly is healthy, it helps you communicate. i replaced into interior the suited comparable situation. college could be a bummer on the initiating or perchance each and every of ways by using counting on your application, yet it isn't any reason to have faith your relationship can not stay to tell the story. you ought to communicate to her extra and clarify the style you experience : which you do not go with it to end, you like her, etc. that is a sturdy concept to connect up extra exterior of faculty while you're lacking one yet another plenty. reading at the same time is additionally a efficient decision.

I don't think it is going to last unless you let him meet your father. It would be way better for you to introduce him to your boyfriend than him finding out that you have a boyfriend without him knowing. Imagine how worse that would be. Good luck and try to keep your boyfriend and father away from each other when they meet and what i mean by that is make sure they don't sit next to each other.

Nope. Sorry. Nothing lasts on lies and deceit. Not to mention you've never even MET this guy. He could be a 65 year old pedophile pervert for all you know. This has no chance, move on.
