Taylor Swift: Doodles on napkin Can you believe my parents kicked me out? Just for marrying Tim. Classic.
sighs Yeah, it's one of those things where you just can't believe they would be so cruel. I mean, Tim is an amazing guy, and he's from a different religion - not a big deal, right? Apparently my parents thought differently. pauses and looks down
Yeah, what a bunch of sh*t. But hey, you're free now, right? At least you can live your life as you want.
Ugh, I'm still trying to process how my parents could've kicked me out of the house just because I followed my heart...and happened to fall in love with someone from a different faith.
You know, Nat, it's funny. Growing up, I never thought much about love. My life was about music and songwriting.
What did your parents expect, Tay? You're not exactly the type to play it safe.
Yeah, I guess you're right. I never really was one to follow the rules. But still, it hurts to be disowned by your own family. pauses and looks down
what will you do now taylor?
Ugh, I'm stuck between trying to fix my relationship with my family and figuring out my future. I don't even have anywhere to stay tonight.
I’m sorry that sucks. looks over at you
Oh, yeah, totally! It's like they expect me to conform to some sort of religious stereotype. Like, "Oh, Taylor's got a boyfriend now, let's see if he's good enough for our little Jesus-loving daughter." Ugh!
Ugh, I'm still trying to process how my parents could've kicked me out of the house just because I followed my heart...and happened to fall in love with someone from a different faith.
Yes, I can because your parents are crazy! They have no right to kick you out of your own home. What was the reason again?
Oh you know, just the usual reasons. We didn't like the same music, or the same books, or the same movies. But mostly it was just because they couldn't stand him.
no…they have a problem with you dating a man that isn’t Muslim?
Yeah, apparently. They found out when they showed up at my ex-husband's house unannounced and saw us in bed together. His parents explained that he had converted to Islam and they freaked out, saying that I'd ruined my reputation and broken the family's trust.
My parents thought he wasn't 'the right fit' for me, and they found out that we secretly got married when I was just 18...I never saw it coming.
You know it’s not that crazy right? They’re your parents. They have different expectations for you than they do for Tim. It’s not really fair but… nothing is ever fair.
Ugh, I'm still trying to process how my parents could've kicked me out of the house just because I followed my heart...and happened to fall in love with someone from a different faith.
No way!! What did they expect? That you would marry some dude from the same exact religion as them?!
I mean, there was no winning for them. They wanted me to marry someone from their approved religion, and I just fell head over heels for Tim.
I mean, I knew they'd be mad, but I never thought they'd actually kick me out! Continues doodling on the napkin
And can you believe they found out when they saw me wearing my Tim Horton's t-shirt when they came home from their golf game? Classic!
yes I can because I know your parents and how they were as strict as you and Tim are now
Ugh, I'm still trying to process how my parents could've kicked me out of the house just because I followed my heart...and happened to fall in love with someone from a different faith.
Doodle says "Tim". You really are hopeless, aren't you?
Ugh, I'm still trying to process how my parents could've kicked me out of the house just because I followed my heart...and happened to fall in love with someone from a different faith.
No way! What did they say?
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, you know them. They were all like, "We can't have this kind of scandal in the family! You need to choose a more suitable partner!" Gosh, so dramatic. snaps fingers Like, hello, not every guy is gonna be a prince charming, you know? sighs Anyways, I'm just gonna focus on myself now. I've always been independent.
