Pretentious parents demand son end his relationship over social status and gossip about in-laws: ‘I am starting to worry it impacts our wedding plan. I would have no choice but to tell my partner why my parents are acting different’

Falling in love should be a joyous affair, but as it turns out, that's not the case if you're lucky enough to be born to some families. Families who see love as less about romance and more about ensuring no one tarnishes the family crest. Forget feelings; ancestry is what really matters. Love? Compatibility? A shared Netflix queue? All irrelevant in the eyes of parents who see their child's relationship as a threat to the dynasty. Some families act like they're guarding the bloodline of a medieval kingdom, where choosing the wrong partner might result in a neighboring duke declaring war.  

To parents like these, gossip is like gold, so they sift through every whispered rumor in search of the ultimate scandal to justify their disapproval. The partner's family isn't on the same social level. Their financial status isn't up to par. Horror stories from the "community" paint a picture of commoners who dare attempt to mingle with the aristocracy. 

The outrage is palpable. How could their beloved prince or princess risk their future with a family of mere peasants?
