rlindzie Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 So I have been with my bf for a litttle bit now, and he loves his family [which is great] So the other day i was over and his family [sisters and mom] were watching a game. I said hi and the like and she asked me if I wanted to eat and I said " No thank you, I just ate but thank you" so I sit down, and not a word comes my way from any of them! So I sit quietly and let them enjoy thier convo. So the issue: today after I get out of the ER I get a call from bf, saying he needs to talk to me. BAD NEWS, he says his mom thinks I was giving her attitude!!! I was caught compleatly off gard!!! See I grew up with , to show respect you do not talk to elders unless spoken to, and never intterupt a convo. So by me showing respect I am not looked at as giving attitude!!! And I tried to explane this to him and he hung up on me!!!! What do I do? I dont feel welcome there and he doesnt get the culture difference!!! It really gets to me that he doesnt get that not everyone is the same and my culture is different! I am really pissed that he is mad at me now!!! What would you do?
2sure Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 He sounds narrow minded, rude, and righteous by standards of any culture.
