This is my opinion and I understand being concerned for your loved one or wanting clarity on a certain situation. But to flat out ask personal, disrespectful, and accusatory questions as soon as you sit down at Chili’s to meet for the first time, it’s wrong and unfair. It’s like some of these American families don’t think that the new fiancé is a person with feelings just like them. They’re already on edge because they’re meeting their fiancés family and they’re a country away from their own family, why interrogate them? It just sets a negative tone for the new relationship. And then the American fiancé just sits back and let’s it happen?
I understand some of it is scripted. But the whole Libby family takes it to the next level.
When Charlie keeps going in on Andrei. Talking about his country being a communist country, his food as peasant food, him traveling from Ireland to get to America (delulu much), him trying to take advantage of his family, etc. screams xenophobia and ignorance. It’s so uncomfortable watching them. It’s the typical patriotic American that sees foreigners as the type to steal your jobs.
Ugh. They’re an awful family. Pretty judgmental for morons with mugshots
