Pregnant Woman Doesn’t Want To Celebrate Thanksgiving At Her Boyfriends Family’s House

Thanksgiving is a day when families get together.

Thanksgiving is a day of gathering, eating delicious food, and having fun. However, not everyone in the world celebrates this holiday. Although it is pretty popular in the United States, other cultures and countries may not find it significant. Every culture has its own holidays and traditions to celebrate. Spending a day with family is not always what it is cracked up to be. Anyone with a big family knows how awkward it can be when parents bring up old things or when they don’t hold their tongue in front of your partner.

This is primarily the reason why the protagonist of this story does not want to spend Thanksgiving with her boyfriend’s family. She is seven months pregnant, which means her emotions are in overdrive. Additionally, she does not eat meat, which can be a precarious situation, especially when it comes to Thanksgiving in America. She has always noticed that her boyfriend’s family says things that aren’t polite, and unsurprisingly, they get under her skin. In this situation, she thought the best idea was not to go there, but her boyfriend wants her to come very badly.

There are some other issues that will explain this situation a bit more thoroughly. Please scroll below to take a look for yourself.

However, her boyfriend wants her to compromise somewhat.

It seems she managed to offend a lot of people when she said she didn’t enjoy living in America.

She also wanted to clear up a few misunderstandings.

It’s not surprising that she doesn’t want to go. If I were in her place, I wouldn’t want to either. I was a vegetarian for two years and it was always awkward during holidays at family’s house. Sometimes people don’t understand that just because you’re not eating something, it doesn’t mean you dislike their cooking. She has asked for this issue to be resolved before, but they refuse to listen. Her boyfriend is not helping her either. He needs to clear everything up with his family if he wants this relationship to work in the long term.

Most people in the comments were on her side.

I don’t think she is being selfish at all.
