And I recently introduced my GF to my family, which was really tough, because I'm not very proud of it. I basically told everyone that shit better be tip top while my GF is around or there will be hell to pay. Things went pretty smoothly... it's just that my family follows me around like bad weather and it's especially embarrassing because my GF comes from a pretty well-off family. Eventually she will know all the details about my miserable past... it's just important for your SO to realize that you're different and all... most people would accept those circumstances because we are not responsible for our family.
