When two people fall in love it always send a shockwave across the universe and disrupts the normal we know. It is the price we pay for falling in love. The creation of one disrupts the many.
Really needed this video🙏 My family is doing this now trying to make me "prove" how my BF is good for me, feels like a trap, they don't know him like I do and he has no idea what's going on behind the scenes, we're so happy whenever we're together, it hurts so much bc they don't even want to try and get to know him😔
Sakina Simmons they will open trust me but don’t feel like that cause the way you act towards them can come off as you not liking them if so don’t feel any less
Glad you talked about these ethnic issues. Yes, arranged marriage is prevalent in India but there's something even more common here. Let me start with my example. I am an Indian but my parents are not okay with me marrying just any other Indian girl. There are 29 states in India all have different languages and dialects. Each state is like a mini country of its own. My parents belong to Assam state. Now, you will guess that my parents are okay if the girl I marry is from Assam. Wrong! There are dozens of tribes in Assam; I belong to the Mishing tribe, which is further divided mainly into 4 other castes- Pagro, Moying, Sayang, Delu. My parents are Pagro. So, the girl must not just be a Mishing but must also belong to the Pagro caste before my parents would accept her as their daughter-in-law! So, there'll be lot of compromise for single people of small communities like us coz you only have a handful of options. It sounds crazy and makes way for frustration when you realise that you have so little choice. I am sure people from other states of India can also relate to this as they too have family issues related to castes, sub-castes, sub-sub-castes, etc. Inter-state marriage is very uncommon here. No mother-in-law from say Tamil Nadu state would ever "readily" accept a daughter-in-law from say Gujarat state, even if the boy and the girl are madly in love and perfect for each other. Everybody loves to think that their own community is superior. Although not all parents are like that but most are. Some kids respect their decisions, but some go against their wills, marry and get cut off from their parents. I have seen so many relationships forcefully broken by parents just because the guy or the girl were of different castes. Parents ultimately need to give their kids enough space and freedom, so that they can decide for their own lives, especially in choosing a life partner.
"I am the architect of my own life." And despite the many things in my life that haven't gone right, I've finally discovered the love of my life. And, my family does not support/approve. The one thing I've gotten right.
Thank you so much. My family is against my relationship with my boyfriend because he is 14 years older than I am. However this is the most compatible I have felt in a relationship and I don’t want to risk it and keep looking for someone “better”. But I just took your advice and maintained my stance than I am marrying this man.
Am at the same point. And trust me... As long as you are not the one forcing somebody to choose,and you end up not being the choosen one,you end up winning.
Evan: I have watched many videos on this subject and yours is the only one that has spoken to my mind, heart and soul, all at once 🥲 I truly appreciate the intelligent, thoughtful and thorough manner in which you approached this subject. You truly understand the complexities of multicultural couplehood and you truly do a phenomenal job at both empathizing with parents, while affirming the dignity of children to make their own adult choices. Thank you!🙏 This video truly helped me and I will be watching it again in the months to come. My partner and I will be welcoming our first child this year and this advice will be most helpful than ever when I reach the same stage your wife reached with her family (the discussion of the child's faith education)... We will be a multicultural family also (trilingual + 2 religious traditions) and I will set all the boundaries necessary to ensure that my new family can thrive in its own internal diversity. Thank you! Truly, thank you 🙏❤
we see this happen in current day still. it happened to my friend but eventually the parents actually came to be happy for her and her decision, my friend is marrying her love who is not from her culture.
Wauw I really loved this podcast! You gave me such good advice. Even though I am the one in your position (my in laws don't approve of me) I still learned what my boyfriend should be doing. Thank you for that!
I feel like my relationship is very stalled and coming to an end. But my boyfriend and I keep forcing it. His family is very religious, Ukraine, Russian. I am American, not religious but I was brought up kinda in a catholic family but not even close to anything. My mom believes and some of my siblings believe in what they believe. My boyfriends parents are strict. Took my boyfriend two years for me to even meet some of his family. I always feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome and he doesn’t understand why. I’ve told him and he does get it but he thinks I should just suck it up basically. He has never let me meet his father yet. Over three years of dating my boyfriend. He is afraid of being kicked out of his house. I am not religious at all. I believe in nothing. My boyfriend always says “he doesn’t know what to expect.” If I meet his dad. He said there’s no point in having me meet his dad if we aren’t getting married right now. And I don’t understand that. I look at my sisters and their boyfriends, they meet and are close with their boyfriends family and I feel horrible about mine. I wish to have that bond with my boyfriends family. He’s met everyone in my family no problem. I feel like breaking up with him because there’s no way I can go on. I love him very much but I can’t see a future because of how things are and nothing is improving. I cry so much about it all. I feel so horrible.
All I know is that I wouldn't keep my girl away from her family if they didnt like me anyone who does that is a controlling piece of crap and to stay with someone like that is idiotic .
Damn i really feel this man. Thank you for this video... It's not religion but it's mostly just my girlfriends parents dont approve of me... Sitting down with them tomorrow to talk more. 8 months in with my girlfriend and im in love but wish me luck man. This content really helped me out.
I want your help.. Recently I found out that my boyfriend has been taking drugs for a few weeks. We haven't been together for long but I care for him and I want to help him stop it. My parents found out too and they don't allow me to see him, or talk to him ever again because they're afraid that he'll try to make me join him, even though I know he won't. I tried to explain them how much he cares about me, and how much he takes after me but they won't listen. They told me that I'm upset because he's my first love and they also told me to break up with him. I don't wanna do this and he makes me happy. He doesn't go to school and he's still young like 16. He made bad choices, he smokes, and he takes drugs but he's trying to stop it but they don't care. They only want me to be safe I understand it but it makes me cry everytime. Please tell me what to do..
yo its an avocado please I’m kinda in the same situation too. My gf is 19 and I’m 16 and she drinks and stuff and my parents know and they don’t like us being together. I just don’t know what to do
Let him go. There is a great chance he'll become addicted...along with the prospect of unemployment, theft and all the health and social disadvantages of drug use. Addicts will steal their children's Christmas presents. You may feel compelled to try the drug to see why he wants to use it and you may become trapped as well. I'm not saying the boy is a bad person but any future with him is, at this point, very risky. He needs to quit for his own wellbeing as well as your own if you continue to see him. As you mature, you'll come to recognise red flags in relationships. There are many...violence, drunkenness, two-timing etc. You have incredible parents by the way.
I need help. I have intersting story my gf going through a rough divorce she said loves me and i feel the same for her my family thinks get myself into lot of trouble and we both see eye to eye for us can u please help me be with her
for some reason i destroyed my family's image to my girlfriend and then my family figured out about what ive been talking to her and now both of dont wanna meet nad now i feel liek shit
2/2 one more thought -- I think the TH-cam-aesthetic is to light faces so that the eye sockets of the speaker are well lit. The more natural you can make it look, the better! Goodluck! CR
If your parents don't approve run! They can probably see something you can't while wearing your rose coloured glasses. Every old person I know who married against their parents wishes are now divorced or miserable
My mom doesnt like my boyfriend saying that we are related but we werent related up to 2nd degree. He is probably a cousin far away down the ancestry line. My uncle hated him because of a dispute where he and my boyfriend had way back his teenage years. They are convincing me to break up with him but I cannot. Me and my boyfriend went back to hell and worse. I've received a message from my uncle a lot of times and a threat from my mom. They are toxic as hell and I do want to cut them off but I still want to be my siblings and cousins. I dont know what to do.
Hi I like your video sofar. I'm grateful that you and your wife still manage to get to the MARRIAGE part of your relationship. What I'm meaning is I'm in love with my best friend who is also the love of my life. I am a multicultural woman and he is caucasian (white) guy but shockingly that isn't the issue at all with his mom not approving of us even being a couple. She only accepts us as being just friends because she deep down doesn't feel that anyone is good enough for her son which is selfish in my book. I've known them both for 4 years now( even met him through her) and sadly she's tried to keep us from being together. It has been frustrating because I know that we both truly love one another more than friends but unfortunately she gaslight him onto believing things about relationships that are totally untrue. I actually don't really care if she approves of us or not because We are adults. The only thing I don't like about this the most is that she's tried hiding this behavior from her son and even I let him know what's going on I angers him then she probably gaslight him again but I will never give up on him and I still love and treat her with respect because being vindictive is not anyway to get through life. I do however limit what I tell her and keep the conversations small. I still love him and I do respect his mom but I will let her know out of love when I feel disrespected. We truly deserve to be happy together and he also deserves to rebuild a healthy relationship with his mom but I think she does need to allow him to make his own decisions without control or manipulation. I also would like to add. It's OK for you to be who you are. Your wife loves you and that's all that matters. If her parents still don't accept you oh well ( no offense) that's how I see it. I grew up with a Jewish friend who is like sister to me and her mom was a Jewish lesbian and I never judged her. Her daughter (my sister friend grew up to be agnostic and I still accepted her. I'm also friends with an ordained minister who is gay and I'm actually a celtic wiccan and pagan belief and my love is mormon and spiritual and we both accept one another. His mom is also spiritual and accepts my belief. Also ,I've learned that how you choose to raise your kids is soully up to you and your wife. So if they got upset oh well. It's not on you guys. My grandfather is German catholic and he accepts people for who they are. My mom never had a religion but her father still loved her and my grandmother had no religion. My mom did however follow alot of buddhist beliefs. I divorced a wiccan who was fake and broke up with another wiccan. No culture is better than others. I agree. It's unhealthy. Yes I feel he has to stand up to her and we are American in western society. It's sad for all people to go through disapproving parents. I truly love him and I will never give up on him. She also doesn't approve of our age differences. I'm 40 and he's 25 but we are 2 adults and he truly makes me happy. Very true very true. What they say doesn't matter. It's what you truly want that makes you happy.
Evan big fan of your stuff. My question in this specific story is you mentioned that your partners family had a big problem with you both raising the children Jewish, but my question for you is how was it on your family? Being Jewish myself, I know our families are more commonly unaccepting of any non-Jewish partner even if they agree to raise children Jewish let alone convert. I’m genuinely curious if you experienced that on your end and what you did to overcome it. Thanks
Hii i'm 18 and my mom doesnt approve of him cause of his ethnicety and she is like saying if I stay with him I have to move out... She sad i should live my life, meat people and go out and ofcourse I wanna do that but with him too but she just can't accept that.. I really love him and he loves me to and his famaly is really supportive. I don't know I want to stand up for him and tell my mom all that but im scared that she still won't let me be with him and that it will just get worse..
I’m going thru the same but opposite she is the one that does stuff and I try so hard to help her get rid of that and tell her it’s not worth it but she does it and she did it behind my back my family my parents know of the drama she put me in with people beginning of school and while we broke up we broke up oversummer and she lost her way and just let go and started to do that stuff I don’t like such as smokes and I don’t like it because I lost someone close to me that passed away from that stuff and I don’t want her to end up like him it’s not bad now but she does enjoy the fact she does it and she’s being honest with telling me she dosent know if she won’t do it again and she dosent wanna make a promise and I’m with her and I’m trying to change her mind on that and have her see she won’t need it anymore she’s been thru a lot and i understand she’s goin thru stuff still and and we recently got back together a week ago and yesterday I found out she did it behind my back and didn’t wanna tell me cuz she didn’t want me to break up with her and I forgave her she has made mistakes and she is a very sweet girl and she fixed those mistakes and buys me things and puts her time in doing stuff for me but sometimes her actions are really stupid one night homecoming she was with another boy but this was while we was Broken up and she dosent like him at all and they went together to home Comeing and a girl that’s has a crush on me kissed me in front of her so she came back and told me everything and now it’s different we got back together last week and I told my parents they don’t want me to be with her and I don’t know what to do she is a very smart gorl and she loves me but idk what to do they say thing like she’s no good for you she’s having intercourse with other boys she’s a hoe and such on and it makes sense why they would say that but idk wat to think because her actions are different from wat goes on and she’s been there for me but my family dosent like her they say if I get her pregnant at a young age my life is over and I can find a better girl plz help me it’s stressing me out and it hurts🤦🏽♂️😔
I think you should talk with whomever lights your sets because your face always seems to be in too much shadow. I love your podcasts but I think you could benefit from greater fill light on your face straight-on, instead of just the top-light situation that seems to be going on. Thanks for all your hard work, Evan! -Caitlin
I have a question for you, Evan: Can't your children still be allowed to believe in and recognize Christ as the Son of God and still be raised Jewish? I believe that would be the compromise as far as your wife being Catholic and you being Jewish.
Not getting into a religious argument on TH-cam but Judaism predates Christianity by over 3000 years. Which is to say that believing that Christ is the son of God is not built into our religion. Thanks for watching.
When two people fall in love it always send a shockwave across the universe and disrupts the normal we know. It is the price we pay for falling in love. The creation of one disrupts the many.

I really appreciate all the insightful & heartfelt things you said in this video! Thank you!
I deal with this the spouse Must Stand up
She chose her family over me, obviously her family is her family but it's kinda annoying why she has to chose in the first place lol
Am at the same point. And trust me... As long as you are not the one forcing somebody to choose,and you end up not being the choosen one,you end up winning.

I feel like my relationship is very stalled and coming to an end. But my boyfriend and I keep forcing it.
His family is very religious, Ukraine, Russian. I am American, not religious but I was brought up kinda in a catholic family but not even close to anything. My mom believes and some of my siblings believe in what they believe.
My boyfriends parents are strict. Took my boyfriend two years for me to even meet some of his family. I always feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome and he doesn’t understand why.

Why not raise the children in both religions? People do it all the time. Or no religion, that would be my first choice!
Let the kids decide when they're old enough.
Is there any instance where it would be wrong to support a loved one's decision?
I wish I saw this at age 18
I think you should talk with whomever lights your sets because your face always seems to be in too much shadow. I love your podcasts but I think you could benefit from greater fill light on your face straight-on, instead of just the top-light situation that seems to be going on. Thanks for all your hard work, Evan! -Caitlin
Caitlin Reid this makes no sense, are u listening to what the guyvhas to say? It’s a self educational video not a Victoria’s Secret photoshoot
I think the lighting is okay
Caitlin Reid who fucking cares about the lighting? We are hear for what he’s talking about. And the lighting is fine. Looks normal
Are you having a relationship with your significant other or your family?
I have a question for you, Evan: Can't your children still be allowed to believe in and recognize Christ as the Son of God and still be raised Jewish? I believe that would be the compromise as far as your wife being Catholic and you being Jewish.
Not getting into a religious argument on TH-cam but Judaism predates Christianity by over 3000 years. Which is to say that believing that Christ is the son of God is not built into our religion. Thanks for watching.
I wouldn't date a man who doesn't have Faith. That's just me.
As long as there won't be any proselytizing, we're cool.
Same here
