I've been with my fiancé for about two and a half years, but have never met her parents because they are racist. Ironically her parents' marriage is one that is interracial and of immigration. Her mother is from Peru and her father is from Poland, but I'm black (which is just the worst of course.) I've met plenty of her other family members and they have all been great. It used to not bother me that much, but it is embarrassing when I have to explain to people why I've never met her parents. I've never even talked to them on the phone before; they literally want nothing to do with me and don't even want to acknowledge that I exist. The only time they ever asked my fiancé about me was when my father was dying (he died young and unexpectedly.) I come from an upper-middle class background, am well educated, and was making six figures by the time I hit 30, but none of this matters to them as they just assume the worst about me, and can't get over how she's shaming herself and their family. I've been to Peru, and it is weird how they worship fairer skin there. My fiancé's mom looks very Spanish, but you can't really tell with my fiancé, and her mom absolutely loves that about her. Here is our most recent picture for reference:
Has anyone ever dealt with anything like this? I literally may never meet her parents. She's met dozens of members of my family and they all love her.
