Hello
I posted a few weeks ago about my parents hating my OH, I asked for it to be pulled she to identifying info.
Basically they hate him because they think he's too old for me, 6 years, looks older than he is and isn't good looking enough. They also think he drinks too much, is a 'lad' and lazy because he can't drive, he is learning.
I live at home. Was given lots of advice saying they are toxic and move out into a room. Which was very helpful. I have looked at rooms and are going to see some soon.
Reason for posting is I've had another earful this evening and I need to get it out.
They went to a friends for dinner last night and her son and his GF were there. My dad said it was another example of how unsuitable my OH is for me, as we don't look good together, unlike this couple, a couple I've never met before!
Me being with OH is rubbing their nose in it. It's eating away at my dad. He sees couples 'everywhere' who suit each other and it makes him upset. My OH looks like an old uncle when he stands next to me. He said he wishes I would just move in with OH And get it over and done with so he can grieve. Grieve? WTAF?!
We bumped into my dad in the shops yesterday so I knew something would be said this evening and when I got home I could sense the atmosphere.
I just went downstairs to get a drink and he tried to start again, I firmly repeated no I'm tired I've got work tomorrow I don't need this. He kept trying but mum told him to leave it. As I walked upstairs I heard him say "end it with him for our sakes" and that sentence sums it up completely. It's all about them, how they feel
I don't need posts telling me to move out, those wheels are in motion, I just need a bit of hand holding as I'm very upset. I love my OH, it was our one year anniversary the other day and he was so thoughtful and romantic. He is a good man and they can't see it.
