lol totally agree with you...but there is no ground rules made by "the girlfriend" in a phillipino community...its all about them...any outsiders ...are well outsiders...my bf and i have sat and sat and sat and talked and talked about this crap...mainly its a lack of communication as well as misunderstanding about each others culture...what gets to me the most though is i am supposed to bend over backwards to understand their culture but they refuse to give me the same respect...i make american food for them...and no one eats it...all they can do is complain that ...this is gross....how can you eat that or this and thats his brother and sister because they try it, his parents dont even look at it alot of the time.....i mean it really hurts my feelings they could say..just not my taste...God Bless my BF that he likes it and says....well i really like it....but i am not allowed to say no thank you to anything because according to my bf thats a sign of disrespect....i dont know...i just wish i wasnt the only one trying to understand them
cultural differences suck....but if i have to stay here for my bf i guess i am willing to make the sacrifice , he puts up alot from me...i mean there are times i keep him up until like 3 am .....so i guess i can do this..besides....they are his family...and if im going to marry him i am going to have to put up with his family for the rest of my life...lol if he loves them...i should sorta...like them at least
