I've been dating my boyfriend for 9 months now and we are pretty serious. However I can't help but feel like his parents and brother don't like me. His parents don't put the effort in to talk to me and I often feel unwelcome in their house due to this. When I say hi to his brother he flat out ignores me and walks straight past like I don't exist. His mother is very standoffish and I find her to act fake with me like fake smiling and laughing when I talk to her. His dad doesn't really bother with talking to me and I find him to be intimidating. It's difficult because his extended family, grandparents and cousins are all very polite to me and are very sweet. My boyfriend doesn't see this because they treat him strange. His parents treat him like a butler when his dad doesn't even work all day he just sits at home and plays golf with his friends. They make him do everything around the house when they are more than capable. I don't like how they treat him. Am I reading too into this or are they rude?

If he is doing this all for them he doesn't
seem to care because he is not questioning
it. I wouldn't visit someplace if I'm going to
be ignored or not wanted. If it is bothering
u-tell ur boyfriend but I c that it wont make
a difference or he would have said something
up til now.

Honestly you should give no fucks bout them. Idk if it is a good or bad advice. But imo all you need to care bout is your bf.

If the relationship is as serious as she says...then that's really not good advice.
Significant others' family members are always important in a relationship...whether they are awesome, or sucky people.

To the OP... it may just be that his family is strange and not used to being around new people? Or maybe they are just not very social. It's something you may have to get used to and deal with if your relationship continues to progress.

As far as him having to do all the chores...I don't think that's that out of the ordinary. I have to do lots of stuff around the house...my parents are at work most of the day, so if I don't do it...the house would forever be a mess.
