A girl shared how she met her boyfriend’s family for the first time and they kept taking turns to ask her questions like she was going for a job interview.
Here is the story:
“Met my bf family recently and the entire conversation only involved the family members taking turns to ask me questions abt myself and my family back to back.
Like job interview style e.g. What do you, your parents and siblings work as? Which uni you came from, what degree? Any other professional classification? What’s your religion, did you convert or inherit from parents? What’s your height (!!!)? And many more. Sometimes they even cut me off before I even finished answering and jumped to another question, sigh.
Honestly I was taken aback as I’ve never been subject to such treatment before by anyone’s parents. It’s a contrast compared to when he met my parents, where the conversations were more casual, like abt how we met, hobbies, Covid situation, travelling etc. instead of solely focusing on his background. Also rather disappointed that my bf didn’t say anything as I was being “interrogated” by his family members.
In case you think it is a conglomerate family, no they are not. Neither is my bf young and handsome. He is almost a decade older than me and I would rate his looks 4 out of 10.
Guys, any idea how to deal with such judgemental future in laws? Is this a dealbreaker? I am just afraid I will never be enough for them.”
