Your dad is not a racist dick. First impressions are LASTING impressions. He doesn't want what happened to him, happen to YOU. You can fuck up business deals, but fucking up your life by picking the wrong person is entirely different.

Think about it--a boyfriend is just that, a guy you happen to like. I'm pretty sure 99% of "boyfriends" would bail if you told them you had herpes, AIDs, cancer, a baby, huge debt, any combination of the above.

Never cut off ties with your parents. They're the only ones in the world who you can 100% count on when shit's down. They're the ones who make food everyday, bring it to the hospital, and feed you.

I'd stick with the people who fed, clothed, and sheltered me for 18 years over the guy I met for one year. Forget about that romantic "we'll get our own place and live together!" shit. When reality sets in, and you fall behind in rent payments/go pregnant/he cheats on you, you're fucked.

Your dad doesn't need to prove himself, even if he's an intolerant *****. If your boyfriend genuinely cared about you (these are rare), he would learn about your culture and customs, and prove to your parents that he's the perfect person for you. If he's genuinely willing to change, and understands the situation you and your parents are under, then stick with him. However, if he's suggesting that you ignore your parents/cut off ties with them, DROP HIM. I'll take my chances with the dependable parents over some biter who tells you that he's more important than your relationship with your parents.

I expect a boatload of fails, but this is just my 2 cents.

So you are willing to give up your happiness the man you wanted to be with till the day you die to make your parents happy?

Sure parents are there for you 100% but equally if the the guy love you he will be there for you as well.
