my man stayed after he had to meet my family the first weekend we ever met in person (and grill food for them bc nobody took responsibility to do that for my grad party…) and reminds me every day of just how much love i’d been missing out on with my family… he’s so protective of my peace and is understanding of why we rarely visit with them. he says he can’t wait to get married so he can just walk up to my mom and ask “so why aren’t you there for your daughter?”
