At a party freshman year, I met this very beautiful girl and we hit it off. I’m from Indiana and she is from Brooklyn, and came to IU because, well, I guess she got sick of NY. Like she’s cool and we just razz each other. She, and this is what I love about her oddly enough, can cuss up a storm like a machine gun. IDK I’ve never been a fan of the girls who are afraid to cuss. Anyway, Over Christmas she came home with me for a week before heading back home and then I went to her place for Spring Break. My family HATES her, she was very sweet to them( but alas a few cusses slipped out). I've told my family I’m the one dating her, but they don’t care, they want me with a “ Midwestern Girlâ€. This is all I hear about is how awful she is and her mouth and how long distance relationships don't work( now that it's summer I won't see her until school starts but we do video chat every day so that helps. Parents of C-D: who's right and what do I do? Just FYI, a buddy of mine is dating a girl from Guadalajara, talk about long distance
As a parent of kids your age I'd say your parents should be more supportive. You are simply dating her. It's very nice of you and her to travel to meet each other's family.
If I were your mom, I'd say you need to date, to experience all kind of people and relationships to see who and what makes you happy.
Even the part with a midwestern girl is not right. the world is so small nowadays and people so international you could end up with a girl from a remote part of the globe.
As a general rule long distance relationships do not work, the more time people are separated the bigger the chances are they'll break up. A separation of 3 month i dont think it is an issue.
when you bring your future bride home to meet your parents, that's a different story because it is serious. but even then, your parents can only tell you their opinion. You are an adult and can date/marry whomever you like.
Yeah, we're white and she's got both British and Italian in her background.
I'm confused. You just said "yeah" in response to if she's a different ethnicity. The poster most likely meant race. You're both white, so that would mean, "no."

Not once have you mentioned any qualities that are what make a relationship work.
Sorry for quoting myself.
I'm not trying to sound like a parent but what you love about her is completely superficial.
I'm also not judging, that is perfectly okay, what you love about her is different from what you've known all your life.
What I'm saying is enjoy the relationship, let your parents vent, nod and forget about it.
There is no need to make this a bigger thing than what it is.

I was asked, is she of different ethnicity I said yes, now, as you pointed out, they meant race, so in that case, no. It was a wrongly worded question.
I love her for more than just her mouth. She's extremely motivated, helpful, fun to be around, and spontaneous.
