1. Dear Carolyn: My mom basically despises my boyfriend, “Tom,” because he didn’t graduate from college and works a blue-collar job. She is so rude to him, we can’t even be around her. She defends this by saying that looking at us together makes her feel disgusted, she can’t help how she feels, and she’s being as nice as she can given the intensity of her feelings. Tom actually cried after our last dinner with my parents.

Tom and I are 24, are independently financially stable and have lived together for six months — another source of my mother’s angst, but I suspect if I were “shacking up” with a more “eligible” bachelor, she would deal just fine. Although I am beyond furious at her treatment of Tom, I don’t want to lose her. Our relationship no longer resembles the mother-daughter bond we used to have. I’m also scared about what this is doing to my parents’ marriage. My dad is saying things to her in a tone I’ve never heard before — telling her that her behavior is unacceptable, that she needs to stop. She just gets defensive and yells at him. I don’t want my relationship to be their undoing.

I love Tom and could see us getting engaged in a year or two. However, I’m actually thinking about breaking up with him over this, although I know evil shouldn’t triumph. But I feel like he’s on one side, and on the other side is my relationship with my mom AND my parents’ relationship AND the potential to have it all if I meet a college-educated suitor. (I feel like a horrible person saying this.)

2. Dear Annie: I am a 26-year-old woman deeply in love with someone my parents can't stand. He's not what they envisioned for me; he's rough around the edges, has tattoos, rides a motorcycle and works with his hands for a living. My parents like clean-cut, college-educated types in suits, and he's the complete opposite.

Yes, he has a bit of a "bad boy" past. He's made some mistakes in his younger years -- got into trouble, partied too hard, even had a brush with the law. But that was years ago. Since then, he's turned his life around. He's steady, loyal, hardworking, and treats me with more respect and care than anyone I've ever dated.

Despite all that, my parents won't give him a chance. They're polite when he's around, but I can tell they're just waiting for me to wake up and realize he's "not good enough." They constantly drop hints about finding someone "more suitable" or "more stable," and it's starting to wear me down. I feel caught in the middle -- between a man I love and parents I don't want to disappoint.

I'm not blind to his flaws, but I believe in the man he is now. How do I move forward when the people I've always looked to for support can't accept the person I've chosen? Am I being naive for thinking love is enough, or are my parents judging him unfairly? -- Torn Between Love and Loyalty

Name: Meep
Pronouns: æ/ær, ey/em, or she/her
Age: 36
Location: Tokyo, Japan (from New England, USA)

I mostly post about… my daily life - work (international school librarian) and school (MA Humanities, Self Designed - focusing on imagination as a form of escape from capitalism) but my conversion journey to Judaism, also pretty flowers I saw today; interesting things I read; Shinto shrines I visited; and my cat, Tiamat.

The hobbies I'm trying to monetize/professionalize are… writing - picture books, poetry
The hobbies I'm not trying to monetize/professionalize are… crochet, writing - queer romance, doll photography, indie web design, getting my nails done

I'm looking to meet people who… are adults (21+ only, non-negotiable because of my day job), post about your daily life (whatever that looks like), interact occasionally (I don't expect comments on every post!), and aren't -ist/-phobic, you know? no transphobes, no biphobes, no Islamophobes, etc. welcome here!

My posting schedule tends to be: I post at least once a day most days, often more; I use the "Don't show on Reading pages" ticky-box for inane thoughts or when I'm really on a hypergraphia tear and try to put excessively long posts under a cut.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: (See above, and…) I am a genderqueer asexual lesbian converting to Judaism [with a non-Zionist rabbi] so I think you can guess. If you voted for the current U.S. president or you are very concerned about """fairness in women's sports""" but aren't talking about the pay disparity between the NBA and the WNBA we are not going to get along.

Commenting expectations: I post a lot but I don't expect comments on every single thing! I try to comment when I have something to say but I won't spam you.

Current Mood: hopeful

Hello on Thursday! How's the day going so far for fic? (If you haven't gotten started on your day as yet, how did yesterday go for writing fic?)

    - Excellent!
    - Terrible
    - Somewhere in between
    - Nothing doing

How much time have you spent on writing fic today, roughly?

    - None
    - 30 minutes or less
    - 30-60 minutes
    - 60-90 minutes
    - More than 90 minutes

In five words or less, how do you feel about that?
