[quote=Anonymous]Parents were initially freaking out internally but always nice to DH. Once they accepted that he was the one, they pulled it together and honestly, they love him so much now. Probably get along better with him than me.

Our family in India is very traditional, most people marry without the same community. When my parents announced the engagement to family and friends, they were 100% excited, even if that wasn’t how they felt initially. It didn’t give others room to question the relationship or add their thoughts. Like another PP, my parents are not chill about anything, but I do appreciate that they didn’t express doubts or allow others to. And they now are so happy with him.

Don’t let your parents bully you into ending a relationship. I know many divorced Indian-Americans who married someone Indian to make their parents happy (not arranged, just more settling). And others who are single because they didn’t follow their heart with someone who didn’t meet their parents’ expectations. Power through and most all but the craziest will come around just fine.

Good luck to you! [/quote]
