I had an argument with my parents over my girlfriend.
Good advice
Seeker kept mentioning how hot his black girlfriend was and it made me uncomfortable
I can't see the details about the seeker's case
Good evening :-) How are you tonight?

I’m ok. I’m just calming down.

That's good that you're calming down but were you previously upset?

Question
I got into a major blowout with my parents.
user

That's really rough, I'm sorry to hear that.
assistant
Affirmation and Reassurance
I’m just so upset. They don’t approve of my girlfriend.
user

And they would like you to break up with her?
assistant
Question
Oh definitely.
user

It's complicated when parents want input into their child's relationships. That is really explosive stuff.

I’m not giving in. I really like her and she is soooo hot.

Are you going to have to be around your parents soon after this?
assistant
Question
Yes I will be. Just because she is black, they don’t approve.
user

Oof, I see. I can understand you being upset by that, it's a silly reason to disapprove. Was the blowout in any way productive or just angry?
assistant
Reflection of feelings
Just angry. I’m not sure what to do.

I don't know that this problem will be solved with one single choice or conversation. Do you live with your parents?
assistant
Affirmation and Reassurance
I do not. I was thinking of having my girlfriend move in with me.
user

Ah, well then their opinion of your romantic relationships is 100% irrelevant.

I guess but I don’t want to not have them in my life. But have I mentioned how hot my girlfriend is? Lol So hot and dark. Yummy.

There's not an easy way to get people to let go of those kinds of beliefs. Yes, you did mention that, haha. Physical attraction is awesome but perhaps not the best basis to move someone in with you :-)
