cussing


Question Posted Saturday January 27 2007, 11:55 pm

when you dont cuss [unless youre seriously pissed] and you come from a family that doesnt cuss [if they do its hardly ever, and only the words damn and hell, honestly], would it be rude to ask your boyfriend if he can ask his family to tone down the cussing. these people seriously say everything in the book, quite rudely, and its WAY WAY WAY often. like every other sentence no lie. my boyfriend tries to keep it down around me, but his mom and step dad are the worst, and it intimidates me to be around them when theyre like that. should i just live with it? my mom would flip if she knew i was being exposed to a family like that, but i go to see him not them, but it makes me rather uncomforatble to hear "older mature civilized adults" use such vulgarity and talk about people the way they do. agh. 16 female.

you might just have to live with it and accept them for who they are if their not forcing you to cuss or act like them...yes its vulgar but everyones diffrent and you can't very well tell them how to act because it would be just like them telling you how to act. as far as exposure you know who you are and your not going to change your way of thinking just because of what your exposed to...it doesnt make them bad people its just what their content with and yes i do think theyed get offended. no one likes to be told how to act or what to say.everyone has to be true to theirrself so if you really like him and hes not making you act in the same manner then its just something your going to have to accept or find someone else...if thats the worst thing their doing then it really isnt that bad.everyones diffrent and sometimes people just dont mesh...doesnt mean you cant overcome it but trying to change someone isnt the answer be cause they wont unless they want to. so just let it be as long as their not hurting anyone or theirselves seriously or forcing you to act like them.what would you think if they said you need to cuss more because their uncomfortable around you.

Ask your boyfriend to ask them to tone it down. But as someone who is afflicted with this particular habit myself I probably wouldn't do it if asked, especially in my own home. I like to think that language is an art and the words are what color the picture and sometimes harsh colors provide the desired effect. This is probably something you have to live with just don't pick up the habit yourself, your much better off being polite.

it`s not rude to ask them to tone it down. don`t just live with it. if you don`t like it, do something about it.
