Hi Kaylon,
They probably want you to call them all the time BECAUSE they only saw you a few times a year. It’s called guilt. And making up for lost time.
But let me tell you, even if they were the best parents in the world, your dad was out of line when he threw a tantrum when your boyfriend politely avoided his invasive questions.
Your parents will never approve of any boyfriend. It could be “race”, “money” or whatever. But the REAL reason is that it is proof that you are living your own life just fine without them.
I wouldn’t let your parents meet any future boyfriends. And elope if you get married. They won’t behave. Only bring your husband around them. He’ll be a done deal.
Best,
Inky
