Writing about an awkward situation. Write 150-200 words.
One of the awkward situations happened with me on my girlfriend’s birthday. At the moment we were dating more than six months and I didn’t knew her family in person. Therefore, it was a «perfect moment» to meet them. I was really nervous and anxious about this meeting because I have never done that before. We decided that the best option would be to have dinner with them. In the evening we came to her parents apartment and my nightmare has begun. At first everything went well. We all sat at the table and conversation was flowing, everybody was nice to me. I just began to feel comfortable and relaxed, but in the middle of the evening my girlfriend’s brother started to make veiled jokes about my nationality and other things. It was really awkward for me and I felt offended at the moment. Situation has got worse when I heard my girlfriend’s laughter after another joke. She probably shouldn’t has laugh with the rest of her family. I have not sad anything in order not to spoil relations with all of them, but the resentment was in me for a long period of time.
