189. My Embarrassing Family

Let me tell you about my family. They embarrassing to say the least. The first time brought a boy home to meet my parents, asked him countless questions that no parent should . "When did you lose your virginity? Do you in Jesus Christ? How many sexual partners have had?" Safe to say, that boy I brought stopped talking to me after he met my . I stayed single throughout my time at high . It was not that I didn't like anyone that no one liked me. It was that parents had a rule. They had to approve whoever I would be dating. Sometimes I thought had that rule specifically to embarrass me.

I that I can't have normal parents. They are . They like collecting old books, and watching old . They listen to old records on an old player. They say that it's better than listening an iPod. I always let them know that least I can listen to my iPod when go out. The last day of high school passed, and I didn't know what I wanted do. I decided to take a year off work. My parents didn't like it, but it my decision to make.

I got a job a little restaurant called "Baker's Cabin". It was nice restaurant where people could sit down and a good steak dinner at a reasonable price. liked working there. However, what I liked most the bartender Paul. He had barely turned 21, was already working behind the bar. We started . I think he really likes me, but I 't want things to get awkward when he meets parents. One day, my friend Susan told Paul the only way he could date me was meet my parents. Paul went over that night some records his dad had given him, and them to my parents. They went nuts, and him in. They started asking him questions, but about his sex life or religious beliefs. The were all about music. They really liked him, they were actually acting normal. I think Paul the guy for me.
