Went home after 5 years

[u/anthonevel]

Went home after living in the US for 5 years and got asked the seemingly most important question everyone thinks is essential as a girl in her 30s. "When are you getting married?"

I'm tired of it. Anyway my mom served me this goat's head for dinner.

for half a second i thought i was in vultureculture because they always love a goat skull (there has recently been a woman documenting her goat skin tanning journey).

anyway, im sorry your family isnt asking the questions you care about most- be it your career, or studies, or hobbies. they deserve to shine and be shined upon.

Rolling Stones album cover after lunch. Just say I haven't met my prince yet.

Are you assuming she’s heterosexual

We are assuming the parents would 🙄

Is it bad that I read the title and saw the picture and instantly thought.. "I went to my house after 5 years and this was in the sink"

[u/love_cici]

yum, though i'm sorry that dated question is still asked of us!

What are you eating? Are you Persian?

I came for this question…… Kaleh Pacheh? 🤪

Also if OP is Persian, her mom will still not be happy when she gets married. She will just pressure shift to a child. Then after the first child, still not happy. Pressure shift to a second child. And then maybe. Just maybe. She will be satisfied 😂

Came to ask the same.

Icelanders eat boiled lamb heads as well.

Is that a skull in your soup????

[u/TheNinjaPixie → u/lilyofthevalleynight]

the skull IS the soup!

I missed the part where she said goat head

All I can think of when anyway asks that question is the bit in disenchantment where Lucy is in Bea's family crypt and for reasons falls in a skull and says "soo ven are you getting married?" And it cracks me up. 

I can however relate because from the first time I met my now mother-in-law she asked when we were having kids. The second time was when she started about marriage. I'm infertile and cannot be pregnant without certainty of death. We've been married 11 years together for 16 and she still asks. 

You don't have to get married. There's no timeline for anything. Your worth is not tied to your marital status nor your reproductive status.

Sorry to say but that looks disgusting.

I need a trigger warning 😭

[u/ButDidYouCry → u/AntAccurate8906]

Trigger against what? It's just a skull.
