Long story short, he proposed to me after our college graduation and I said yes. We decided to get married in his hometown, so we flew over to the Philippines last month. His family is great, his friends and I have a great time together, and I’m really loving the weather over here. However, his parents are too overbearing. They have an obvious dislike for me and they express it by saying things like, “Women from USA are loose and uncultured”.
How do I tell my fiance how I feel without hurting his feelings? I don’t want to alienate him from me, especially since we’ve been talking about settling down here instead.
I would recommend just be honest with your feelings and just tell him that you like his parents and everyone but you dont like the comments they make about you.As you respect their opinion about the girls from USA but its just a generalisation. And maybe as a an act of good faith learn and do one little act of their custom which is easy for you to do to show that you are and adaptable to show change, if you are comfortable with that.
