I dont know how to work around the subject of dropping out of community college to be a heroin addict and sell drugs for the last 10 years, and be back living at my childhood home at the age of 29.
Like….their daughter is an actress, a model. When she nearly died, after being in the hospital for 13 months, she took it upon herself to start studying for and aced the MCAT.
I havent dated in forever, and I certainly havent had to deaL with parents in forever. Do I say im working and just show up for dessert? Do I offer to pay the bill (The entrees are between $50 and $100). I had to go out and buy fucking dress shoes and a button up since my other shit shrank. Ugh. Fucking hate this shit. After smashing up the beamer, this is kind of not the stress i needed this week.
Last text I got "I know youre busy and I know this is sudden so if you cant come its totally okay I promise. But i want you to see me in the dress I bought. And even if you walk in just before we go home, If I get to leave on your arm Ill be happy."
:(
I can tell that you like this girl a lot. It sounds like you've got this handled, just dress nicely (which you've done) and be interesting and polite, which I'm sure you'll be. You're going to have a lovely dinner, and by the time it's over, you won't be able to pry her parents off of you. She obviously likes you. How long have you been seeing one another? -

2018-03-15 at 2:08 AM UTCDo not go to dinner with her parents lol. Don't listen to Zanick. This cannot end well, it'll only stress you out

2018-03-15 at 2:09 AM UTCBeen talking to her for a couple months. Met her selling antiques to her shitty ex bf. Yeah shes kinda something else. I went through pages of text trying to convince her not to pursue me. Im old and broke down. Ive got scars and chipped teeth and im overweight and tired. And i never finished school and I wasted over a decade getting high. Everything i could say to make her go away. And for some reason she didnt.
And yeah, I do like her. Shes just an all around really sweet girl. And shes crazy ambitious and a hell of a lot smarter than I am. Theres not a lot not to like. And shes been through addiction to, so I dont have to bullshit my way through some stuff. The parents are just a different deal though. -
2018-03-15 at 2:10 AM UTCWell, if you think you have a future with her, definitely go to the dinner and be wonderful. But I can see how that advice could produce conflict, in most other circumstances.

What was your impression of her ex? Did you meet him before or after you found yourself interested in her? -
2018-03-15 at 2:11 AM UTCWhether or not you think you have a future with her, don't go to the dinner, at this juncture

2018-03-15 at 2:11 AM UTCI'm high as fuck nigger, that colorado dank is painfully good. Oh shit. And I have some incredible beer on me too.

You could never understand what Casper is going through because you're a college-educated milquetoast MOON PERSON vegan white dude. You're probably into fancy shit like this. Casper is way out of his element here -

Well be yourself and I wouldn't mention anything about being a ex heroin addict and selling drugs but don't lie to them. You want them to like you then try to be somewhat social and not a total fucktard and pay attention to what they say and learn about the subjects and if you want to impress them then next time the topics of dinner come up. You can contribute to the conversation. Don't try to impress anyone and don't ever try to talk in a topic of conversation you no nothing about and embarrasse yourself. You their for her bro not her parents. Honestly who gives a fuck what they think as long as you make her happy -

Nigga, you've got me all wrong. I understand adversity better than most of my peers. And I'm not a vegan. I just think that, if you really want something, you have to be willing to do things you aren't comfortable with, and then get used to them. If I didn't believe that I could do that, I'd still be sucking down cough syrup in my mother's basement. If I didn't think CASPER could do that, I wouldn't have said anything about his dinner. Nigga's already bought the clothes, he clearly wants to be there more than not. -

2018-03-15 at 2:22 AM UTCHer ex is a manipulative, abusive loser junkie fuck who beats up the chick who was letting him live with her rent free in West LA, and buying his drugs, cigarettes, clothes, for the past year +. Im trying to avoid confrontation because sometikmes things arent as simple as just beating someone up (and with as fucked up and out of shape as I am, theres a chance he might even get the best of me, but Ive taken my share of punches). He broke into her apartment again this morning and shes been trying to get LAPD to get him out all day. They still havent. If hes still there when we get back from dinner, Im going to find it very hard not to do something. But im worried if I threaten him or beat him up he might come by when Im not there and hurt her even worse.

2018-03-15 at 2:23 AM UTCSounds like a pretty fucked up situation.
Are you sure he's not sticking it to her when you're not around? -
2018-03-15 at 2:24 AM UTCBy sticking I mean sticking his penis in her vagina, not his fist in her face. Well maybe that too I guess
-
2018-03-15 at 2:25 AM UTCAs for dinner, I think Im going to try to go for the last 20 minutes or so. Just to make an appearance. SHe already said I can lie to them if I need to to feel comfortable, as long as I tell them the truth later. So Ill probably say I went to SMC for journalism to tdo the transfer program. Dropped out to help my mom when she needed some help. And then I started doing homeless outreach in Venice, downtown skid row, etc (Which I actually have done a lot of). I dont come off as academic, but generally well spoken enough. Just with how smart and educated she is, im guessing theyll probably have certain expectations.
