Turkish girl wasn’t allowed to date me (Greek). Bothered me that we can’t get over feuds from different generations.
This is in the US btw

It's wild how much control family has
Not necessarily race, but colorism is a thing unfortunately.

They’ve never met a single one😈
Can’t judge if they don’t know

Have you thought about why you find it annoying? I’ve come to understand that having my parents support is important, but I don’t need it if they are against something I know is good for me. You can’t control people, but you can control how you react to them.

I’m in this kind of relationship right now (different race, different religion) and all I can say is.. be 100% sure you’re prepared for the challenges that come with it, because unlike what the media feeds you, love doesn’t conquer all. This is what your parents are trying to warn you about.
Yeah this point isn’t lost on me

Thankfully no, but I have friends that do. One’s been dating his gf for 5+ years and his parents don’t know he has a gf due to the different race and religion of his gf
Whew. I’m gonna pray Sis walks away from that. I cannot imagine being hidden for 5+ years from someone I love.

Are you Asian OP?
Chief
Yes, with all the trimmings of traditional southern passive aggressiveness. The only number greater than the number of times my mom tried snubbed my wife is the number of times my mom says she “just loves” my wife. Thankfully, my wife has a good sense of humor and gives as good as she gets.
