Love: Today, my girlfriend and I were being driven home from our date...

Today, my girlfriend and I were being driven home from our date by her mother. She's Jewish and I'm Catholic. Her mother was talking about how my girlfriend was going on a trip to Jerusalem that summer. She finished with "And you can find a nice Jewish boy while you're there." FML

Today, I watched my mother tell a man that the holocaust was "a good thing" and "necessary for population control". That man was my girlfriend's father. Who is Jewish. FML

Today, my Jewish boyfriend came over for my extended family's Easter party. My grandmother made fun of him for being Jewish so badly, that he left, crying. She doesn't see what she did wrong. FML

Today, I took my Catholic girlfriend home to meet my family for the first time. My brother thought it would be civil to spend over an hour insulting her religion and explaining in detail the many ways in which "the Force" is superior. FML

Today, I was at lunch with my girlfriend. The waitress came up and asked for her number, then asked if she had a significant other. I laughed as my girlfriend gave the waitress her number. They're going on a date, tonight. FML

I dated a white girl with a racist father (I'm a half black half Asian). We just dealt with it and eventually he just kind've lightened up. Just keep at it and it'll get better. Although this girl did cheat on me after a 2-year long relationship so....yeah....

Racism has nothing to do with it. A lot of Jewish parents would rather have their children have Jewish spouses to continue the traditions. I don't know if you're aware but the aren't that many Jews in the world and intermarriage is causing a decline in the Jewish population. It's more about the religion and culture than anything relating to race or ethnicity. And #19, that must have been one of the dumbest comments I've ever read. Just because your scholarship doesn't have that as an ethnicity, and your ignorant friends don't consider it one, it doesn't mean they're right. There's a lot of ethnicities out there and it would be retardedly unfeasible to list them all on a college application.
