I'm the only deaf one in my family. My girlfriend and her whole family are hearing. We're both very family oriented people. Therefore, I often go out with both families to different family events with or without my girlfriend.
They're often not fun. Now, see, my girlfriend has completed ASL 1 and is now in ASL 2. Her whole family has taken effort to learn some ASL for which I'm grateful for.
I hate family events. If I was single and it was just my family, that is one thing, but with 2 families that is extra family events that I've to attend.
It's not my girlfriend's fault. She tries hard to include me in family events. However, in general term, family events are often not fun for me. Maybe it's just that I don't enjoy family event too much in general.
Maybe it's that I would prefer to go to Deaf Events over family events.
I'm sure a lot of you're in the same boat as me.
