i was at a luncheon that a nearby peds dr hosted and there was professionals from all over. my 2 drs greeted an oral surgeon, and at the end the surgeon shook my main drs hand and hugged the other one. i didn’t get a hello or anything.

i didnt rlly take it personal, but i told front desk about this and they said that was it was messed up bc they didn’t see me as a part of the group bc i wasn’t a doctor.

has this ever happened to u guys? 🤔

i kinda cared about it at first but then later said it didn’t matter to me. i told my bf he would have to ask my dad, but when i changed my mind i just said we’d just let my parents know it happened.

told my mom and she said that he needs to ask for my hand in marriage to my dad. this made me annoyed and i said it’s not necessary. she asked why and i said bc it’s an outdated tradition and i don’t rlly care ab it.

later my bf said he wants to do things properly and be on good terms w my parents.

i told my dad about this and he said that he didn’t gaf who i marry cus im the one getting married not him. which is also why i changed my mind bc i knew he wouldn’t gaf.

my mom still insists its the right thing to do and it’s just annoying idk. i said jokingly maybe he can ask you and she said Yes that would work because he needs to talk to us about intentions.

bruh

tdlr; my mom insists that my bf ask them for my hand in marriage even though i don’t really want him to/care about it.
