Is it weird that when we’re married, I’ll be sister-in-law in to your older brother? Someone who used to be my friend during uni days but I barely even talk to him these days?
It’s okay, I can disown him. He’s not my older brother anymore, he’s just a dude that I’m biologically related to. Actually I’m an orphan. I don’t have an older brother, I don’t even have parents. We can just live our happily married life without any of them interfering…
Umm… I don’t mind interacting with your family…
I don’t have family! I don’t even see them as family. They’re just people who think we’re related but I don’t feel emotionally connected to any of them.
How can you say that about your own family?!
Babe… we’re not going into this until later on in our relationship… it’s okay, they don’t have to exist initially. Just don’t think about them! Date me like I’m an orphan.
But you’re not an orphan, in reality…
Emotionally — I’m telling you — I’m already an orphan.
But it’s not like you don’t want in laws yourself?! You’re not trying to isolate me from my family?!
Not at all! I’ll be happy to meet your parents, your brother, sister-in-law, cousins… Aunties, Uncles, everybody!
Why?! Why is it that you’re open to interacting with them but you’ve shunned your own family…?
They wanted me to marry someone else. They wanted me to pick someone else. They’re always nagging and whinging that it’d be better if I’m with someone else. So, I’ve disowned them. Emotionally. They know this.
I really didn’t want to get into it this early…
You’ve been… fighting for me?
There’s nothing to fight about. Every time they mention “oh, there’s this other girl. Would you like to meet her?” I say no. I say I’m planning my life with you. It’s you or nobody. Then they pout and roll their eyes. I don’t care.
But older brother KNOWS ME… why am I so unwanted in your family?
It’s not you — don’t take it personally! — they’re just being weird about your nationality…
But older brother introduced you… to me…
Yeah. But now he’s like “dude we were all young at the time! Think about this more realistically”
And realistically?! He thinks you’re better off with someone from… your culture?
Actually this was a conversation from a few years ago. He hasn’t even mentioned you once this year in 2025. He’s more neutral now. But my parents? Yes they’re still hoping for a daughter-in-law from our culture…
That doesn’t make me feel that good… 😣
That’s why I didn’t want to talk about this so early!!!
It doesn’t matter what they think!!
They’re not the ones marrying you! Or sleeping with you! Or living with you! It’s gonna be me!
I’m marrying you!
I’m sleeping with you!
I’m living with you!
I’m the one who’s in love with you.
None of their opinions matter to me. They have no say. No votes in this. They know the more they object, the further they’re pushing me away.
I would rather be an orphan and married to you, than never marry you and keep them around as my biological family.
I just don’t see any logic to it. They’re gonna love you when they finally meet you anyway — my parents, I mean.
Of course, older brother knows who you are. He’s relaxed into a neutral entity but he doesn’t stand up to the parents for us. He just doesn’t participate in these family conversations, he’s more focused on his own wife and kids.
Uhuh….
Are you feeling slightly better about this?
I’m not sure…
Will your parents be okay with a son-in-law from another culture?
One who makes as much money as you do?! Honey, they won’t object to this… 😅🤭💕
Oh yeah 😏 I forgot that I’m rich. These days. For everyone’s standards. Lol… 😅
U genuinely forgot that you’re a high income, highest tax bracket in society person in 2025?
Lol… yes… just in that moment as we were talking… 😅 I was more caught up on resenting my parents…
I don’t want you to resent your parents. After we’re married, we’re gonna work on healing those relationships…
We are?
Yes… but after we’re married. I wanna be married first.
😁 so do I!!!!! Let’s focus on us first! Our love, our relationship, our marriage!!! 🥰❤️
Yes, okay. I get it now… I will chew on it at the back of my mind, but I promise I won’t obsess over it… but I do want to revisit the topic of your parents… after we’re married…
Okay… I can live with that… I can’t live without you… I want to be married as soon as possible!
☺️💕🤭🥰❤️ (feeling shy…)
