So my parents and boyfriend have never got on for various reasons.
Now recently me and him have got back together after a spell apart.
He is bisexual and for some reason my mother has a massive issue with this.
Recently I went home to see them and when the topic of my partner came up I got an unprovoked rant about how he isn't good enough for me because of his sexuality.
This led me on to tell them that I was bisexual as well so what was the issue.
This provoked a quite offensive and could be considered homophobic rant.
How do I get them to understand that a) being bisexual does not mean you have a girlfriend and a boyfriend at the same time b) my boyfriend has feelings and is hurt by the whole thing (its been going on for years) c) to actually consider meeting up with him and me
It's incredibly hurtful, I would've thought by my age (22) they would have got over the whole thing but not yet. I want to have a 'normal' parent - daughter relationship but their backward mindset is making things uncomfortable :(
Put the internet to work for you.
