I am white. He is of Asian decent. We have been dating for three years. When we first got together, he told me that he, his brother and his 2 nephews were going to Disney World. I thought that was great! (guy time together) A year later, a photo appeared in his belongings that was taken at Disney World and it had his sister in law in it also. Apparenly, it was not important enough to tell me she went along. I really would not have been mad. We had just started dating a month earlier.
While living in Georgia (together), he would always hang out in Atlanta. But, I was never allowed to go. I was told that the "coffee houses" for Asians was not a place for girls but for men to go and "hang out". I respect that. I, too, go to places that men do not go such as the salon.
He did not tell his family about me until 2 years later. Although, I let him meet my parents within the first 6 months. It hurt but I understood the "I have never introduced my parents to anyone before and only want to when I know I am sure of the relationship". But, hey, how long can someone live together until everyone finds out I exist? (two full years)
The first year, he went on vacation to Las Vegas (met his family there). Of course, I was not asked to go. It hurt- especially since it was going to be our first Christmas together. So, I got the "Im sorry I thought I asked you to go" when he came back 2 weeks later.
He told me he did not have that great of a time but recently I found out that he met up with a lot of people while up there. Nice right?
The third year we went to California so that I could meet his parents for the first time. We drove and several times he brought up his sister in law out of the blue which I thought was a little strange since she has nothing to do with the conversation.
Anyway, the parents were nice. But, it was uncomfortable knowing that when he went last time (everytime I called he was "out doing things" but when he took me there- we stayed inside the house for 9 LONG days! Excuse me, he did take me to the beach for 30 minutes to walk the pier.
Months later, they planned a trip from California to come see us in Texas. Since we have known they were coming- all he would talk about is his sister in law. Not things he wanted to do with his nephew, mom, dad, sister or brother.
So, now they are here. I am at work holding back anger and tears! Since they have been here, its been him trying to make her laugh. Or him starring at her and getting real "giddy" around her. Its to the point of- its sickning to watch or listen to!
We went to dinner last night and she wore a low cut shirt with no bra and he just started "looking", getting all "figity" and .
Please tell me- am I insecure, paranoid, jelous (dont think so) or his he just a JERK??
