<i>kamui</i> Sir. I address you as sir because you seem to be respectful of your bride to be and her family, culture, and that deserves consideration.
My homelife is centered around the Mexican/Indian (she doesn't like Hispanic or Native American, albeit her mother is Tribal, and her father Mexican) woman I have loved for years.
We had no problem with the stout Catholicism from her family or me being a white man. (I am a Methodist). My family had problems with me being with a lovely dark skinned woman that didn't fit in with the scheme of things. Since I have been on my own since the age of fourteen, and they did not know of my love for her until I was in my late twentys, they just had to deal with it.
Culture shock can be horribly destructive to a relationship, and old style beliefs are not engraved in stone anymore. Young people are crossing the continents via instantantinous communications and understanding the differences in cultures has become a prerequisite for success in this world.
Bottom line my friend, respect his beliefs, standards, yet, allow that he must respect and understand his beloved daughters upbringing that introduced her in to a world that let her fall in love with you. He raised her in a way that allowed for such open minded thought.
Back to your "why doesnt he like me" question?
Because your dating my daughter you asshole!
