Well, this is gonna be an interesting weekend
My parents, who have major issues (involving depression, alcohol, and other things) and have recently seperated, are coming to visit me in Boston for the weekend.
My parents are also meeting my boyfriend.
The Red Sox will be playing the Yankees.
Let's just say my parents fight all the time- even a dinner, which makes it hard to handle- and my dad can be very callous and mean to guys I've dated so far.
It's gonna to be rough x(

1. oh honey! i'm sorry.
that's why you are such a sweetheart. that kind of stuff either fucks you up, or makes you a special kinda person. :hug:
keep saying to yourself, their nutty, it means nothing, they're nutty, it means nada...

2. Yikes!
Why are both parents coming at the same time if they are separated? (This is NOT asked in any way but out of curiousity).

If it helps any, this Mariner fan will be rooting for the Sox!

Let us know how you survive.

3. Because it's "Parents Weekend" at my college
And my mom doesn't like traveling alone.
It's weird. It's like they feed off the negative energy they provide x(

My dad has been mean to other guys I've introduced to them, but I let it roll off. But this guy is someone I really, really, really love and I don't think I'll be able to bite my tongue this time.

4. Well, that makes sense why they are coming together.
Have you warned your guy about them?

I really wish you the best.

6. he got the warning
I fully expect my dad to make a crack about his braces and his age (he's 2 years younger than me).

I want this to be a good weekend. I miss my parents (not together), and I want to just be able to go out to dinner and have a pleasent evening.

Oh did I mention mum is going thru menopause? :D

:scared:

9. Sympathies to your mum.
I'm heading down that road myself.

Well, hopefully your boyfriend has good intestinal fortitude, and can handle things, and hopefully too, your parents will find the brakes and put 'em on as much as possible in your presence.
