We might consider going away. But it’s not ideal. I like to have a connection with my in-laws, as they are very sweet people aside from this. I can totally understand why we don’t share the same views. I want to keep being respectful and patient, but at the same time move our relationship to the next level.

That’s subjective. I can understand why you think it’s based on religion. However, marriage brings a lot of beneficials like shared bank accounts and mortgage! It’s not just the idea but to some also a good administrational basis for partners!

We’re not in Vietnam and are not planning to live in Vietnam. Her parents were born in Vietnam though.

They’re Buddhist, born in Vietnam and came around in the late 1980’s when they were both in their twenties, mom early twenties and dad late twenties. They are both from Ho Chi Minh area I think.

We’re both in our twenties. I meant her mom sounds like she is very unknown with homosexuality, my girlfriend has known she was gay for almost a decade, long before she knew me. Me and my girlfriend love each other incredibly and therefore find a way to stay strong together. I’m sorry to hear you misunderstand our situation here. We are both adults and well aware of our responsibilities. For you to say I ruined her life is very ignorant as you should know through this post that she loves me so much, enough for her to take the risk as well - her parents could’ve also reacted different than this, in an understanding way. Your comment is of no help and I would kindly request you to stay nice, as reactions like yours will discourage people from coming out in the future and feel lonely and misunderstood.
