LOL i remember that film well, dosent SLJ say something to snipes about her being a penthouse pet or something? lool that film has some mad lines in it

 

Esoterik, are you seeking advice on what to do regarding her and her family, or just after people to share their similar tales? If it’s the latter I don’t have any stories to tell. If it’s the former then it depends on what you want out of the relationship with Sabrina; is she long term GF/wife material or just a bit of fun? If you can see a future with her then I’d suggest sitting her down and having a chat about the issue, but if not, and you can put up with it, then hang out with her and have fun if it feels right for you. Maybe she needs to know you’re worth seriously upsetting her family for, so is biding her time, or maybe she’ll never be mature enough to stand up to them. What do you reckon?

 

I think it's something like "Penthouse pet to an Outhouse pet", not sure though.

 

ROFL.

The Irish are totally like that too lol. Watch Gangs of New York to get good idea of that.

 

Okay, first, DAYUM! Didn't expect so many replies. Awright, lemme give you guys some details. First of all, i'm 25. Sabrina is 20. She's still in college and lives at home. So i think that may be part of the reason she's still under mommy and daddy's thumb. Yo, when i say she's a sweet girl she really is, it's her fam i the problem. As for what we're doing right now? We just started seeing each other so i haven't made up my mind what i wanna do with her. It's just a crappy situation and i don't want this to happen if i eventually meet her father:

Gator asked if she was Jewish, not Irish.

 

Great post, Huntress.

The IR thing is not acceptable to my parents either, however, they will have to get used to it or have a strained relationship with me. I will not skulk around or ask a man to. But then, I'm old enough to stand up to Mom & Dad! To their credit, I do believe if I meet someone with whom I am very happy and who treats me well, they would come around. I have the feeling they are more worried about what other people will think. I have accepted that I'm not going to change their thinking.

The young lady in this situation has to make a choice: will she bow to her family's wishes or stand up to them?

 

Her age and living situation makes a big difference. I wasn't permitted to date outside my race when I lived at home, and I obeyed my parents. This is a tough situation, but I wouldn't walk away until you have tried what you can to make it work.

 

For some reason I remember Irish. But you might be right.

 

if you want to take a beat down..then go ahead. also If you date her then also you better be ready to wife her up because they may cut her off and for you to dump her later would be fucked up. so this deal better be forever.

 

Wow. If anyone came in here saying half the shit about BM that you're saying about Italians, you'd all lose your shit.

Tone down the prejudice just a bit, would ya?

 

Lol

This must be a common thing with black men. Because i avoid Italian Americans like the plaque

 

Really DB? What prejudice?

 

Maybe you might be better of importing a real Italian. I think they are crazy about Americans, not to talk of African Americans. I am sure you will score on every count, one : a grade A Italian; two, a pool to select from; and three, a girl, and family that would feel privileged to have a man appreciate their daughter.

Above is just a joke though.

It is sad, so sad that modern day couples still have to deal with this.

 

Fascinating. You were able to read and post all while your head was deeply planted in the sand.

 

No one said anything derogatory about Italians as a whole you stirring pain in the ass. You really inciting bs don't you?

 

*thinking I saw a Truce thread on here somewhere...* :smt024

 

Alright I've been in a similar situation and here is my opinion. Again this is just an OPINION.

Ok when you say just started seeing each other I'm assuming you mean a couple weeks. If she seems sweet and you really like her I wouldnt dump her right away. In any relationship you shouldnt be in a rush to get all serious anyway.

My advice would be to take your time and get to know her more. Be clear about how you feel (never good to keep stuff to yourself in a relationship) and see how she handles it.

She is very young and still has a lot to learn. In time you'll see her real character and can make a better determination about her long term prospects as a mate.

But for now you shouldnt be trying to get too serious anyway. In the beginning of any relationship you should have some guards up. If you really like her so far just enjoy the moment and take it slow.

 

Yes you were.

And no, I don't.

But, whatever. My day is still going well. How's yours, DK?
