family support

it's.. really funny to see the adults criticize so much on my cousin's fiance.

... that sentence requires an explanation, doesn't it? haha

my cousin's fiance's mom disapproves of my cousin. my extended family is completely baffled and angered by this mom's disapproval since our cousin is super smart, super gentle, super motherly, and just way too good for this boy. after my mom, aunts, and uncles found out about this boy's mom's disapproval of their niece, they have been keeping a verry close eye on him. from the way he dresses to the way he sits down, they have just been super critical (unnecessarily picky, really) of him. they look at him and say to themselves, "this boy is NOT any better than my precious niece. look at his manners. look at his clothes. look at such-and-such."

my mom has told me of all the complaints that she and her siblings have been saying about this boy. of course, i don't approve of their criticism of him (nor is the criticism even remotely reasonable) because really, he did nothing wrong -- it's his mom that disapproves of my cousin.  however, i do find it hilarious and even admirable to see so much love and support that my whole family has for my cousin.  it's.. quite awesome, to be honest.

if, by chance, my cousin or her fiance comes across my blog.. which i highly doubt.. i just want to say one thing to the fiance: don't be offended nor scared by the adults. they love my cousin and are very protective of her in the same way that your mom is being very protective of you. but not to worry, i believe that both parties will eventually grow to love the both of you :)
