The Family and I.
So, I really really love living in Hawaii. My boyfriend is the best on the planet, and his parents are generally awesome.. until recently.

Chris has been coming home and telling me things his parents have been saying recently, like "Your girlfriend is lazy", "She needs to stop borrowing money", "Why does she whine your name so much", "Why doesn't she clean".

I am NOT Lazy, they are just overachievers who think because they own a bakery and work every day and don't get to sleep that because I enjoy sleeping and my days off I am lazy. Feh!

If I don't borrow money, I don't pay rent, I get kicked out. ********, that cycle sucks balls doesn't it!? I pay the boy back!! His parents barrow too =_=, I hate hypocrites really I do.

I whine sometimes, but for lords sake, why do you have to whine about my whining when I'm not whining at you? I don't even whine honestly, normally its joking, like "Chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssssssss Iiimm thirstyyy", To be kinda cute in a sense. Rawr, Its how I am, deal with it.

Why don't I clean? Why.. dont I clean..? Pardon me... I may not be the neatest person in the world but this house looks pretty good on a daily basis. If something spills I clean it, I do grandpa's laundry for him because he is too frail to do it on his own, i offer to do grandpa's dishes. I do my own dishes too. I spot clean when it is needed. You guys are just way to neat freakish.

Seriously, the hyporitizm thats being said about me behind my back makes me want to go home. sweatdrop and I am taking chris with me, coz the poor dear is forced to listen to his parents complain and then hear me b***h about what they said.

If you read this, leave me some advice on what to do in the comments. Please..

You aren't the only one hon.

My bf (Adam) has the same kind of family. Well his dad really doesn't mind me and we joke around sometimes. His mom however....

Well she yelled at us cause we were using too many dishes...then yelled at me for doing the dishes "wrong" somehow. I dunno I gave them an extra scrubbing seeing as they don't have a dishwasher and put them away nicely to dry.

I also admit I'm not always the cleanest person...

I left one...ONE as in 1 bottle in the living room and suddenly I'm the Goddess of messy!

Oh and forgive me that I cleaned the litter box because I felt sorry for the cats...even though I'm sensitive to dusty litter like they have.

Really you are bound to not be liked by a family I swear. It all depends on how they were raised themselves. For example Adam's dad was raised by a caring mother who told him that yes people will be different. His mother...I'm not too sure but she is totally my half enemy. I'm trying to break her by simply being nice to her and ranting about her later. Maybe you can try the same?

oh yes and remember some families tend to attack people because they don't want their precious son/daughter being taken away.

Kwassi, dear, not getting along with your partner's family is the oldest story in the book!!!
Its time to employ the old addage: You cant please everyone, you got to please yourself.
I know its probably hard to ignore, but as long as theyre not actually affecting your boyfriend's oppinion of you, i say just dont let it bother you.
In one ear and out the other, as my mother used to say!!
I'm sorry, i know that doesnt sound very helpful but its true, you cant spend your life trying to prove yourself to them!
Some people cant be pleased!
Anyway its probably all that lack of sleep thats making them cranky!! xd

Well, what does Chris think? Would he even want to leave, and could you guys afford it? I mean obviously there's gonna have to be a point where Chris won't live with his parents anymore. But would you guys really be ready for that right now?

Families can suck sometimes though, it's really really hard to get along with them all the time especially when you're so far away from your own home and family and they are all you have. I'm sure he feels bad about the stuff they say about you, I know Cj always gets really mad if his family says anything about me. Even though most of the time we get along pretty well, his mom and I just butt heads on a lot of issues. But I also know that he probably feels bad when I say stuff about them which I don't take into account as much as I should. But it is really hard and really stressful.

Maybe if you do have to stay there just try to work on one of the things that bothers them, like maybe try to only do the whining thing if its the two of you and try to keep your room a little bit cleaner. You also have to remember that you are living in their house so sometimes you have to compromise a little bit out of respect to make the situation better.

I love you!! I hope everything works out. <3

i know you wanted me to comment this, but camille pretty much said everything I was going to say lol...

IDK about Chris, but when my family talks about Camille I stand up for her because I just don't appreciate that. Also (especially with my mother) they don't like outsiders taking one of there own away, and me being happy while its happening.

Families :/

Started off good... then it was WHAZAM!

Man his parents are D1cKz. They probably don't even have a daughter.?
Lulz.

Well my advice is, don't act plastic when you see them.
Continue being yourself. They'll just have to love YOU

I hope your boyfriend is sticking up for you and know you're there for the good of things. Aww taking care of your grandpa. <3
