While most people understand that family tradition is important, many people believe that the user is more concerned about his girlfriend’s behavior as opposed to his family’s.
“YTA [You’re the a------] mainly because you seem to be very concerned with your girlfriend making a good first impression on your family, but not at all concerned with your family making a good first impression," one commenter wrote. "It reads as though you care far more that your family approves of your choice than you do that she approves of your family. That's pretty f----- up and self-centered,” one user shared.
“YTA. Playing along with sexism just perpetuates it,” another person chimed in.
Truth be told, it’s understandable that the user wants his family to like his girlfriend. However, if he knows that she doesn’t come from a similar background or would have a problem with this, he may want to re-evaluate if they are compatible.
After all, most people would agree that no one should feel like they have to go against who they are to appease their partner’s family.
What do you think — was this guy in the wrong?
