There are stories over here of parents killing their daughters because they are in relationships with non-Indian folk and arranged marriages is still a big problem. But that's just an idea of how far they'll go to keep their family image 'clean'.

Damn, Terrel.
Nothing I could possibly say would be of any solace to you right now, and you know me better than to expect a moral pep talk or meaningless platitudes. So here : Watch Daenerys eat a horse's heart and pretend it's your soon-to-be ex's instead.

My own mom wants me to marry a nice Russian/Ukrainian-American Jewish girl but there's a fat chance if that happening. Plus my mom married a Puerto Rican man
