Call them tonight. Every day you delay will only make it worse and worse for you, your parents, and your girlfriend. Rip off the bandaid. It's the only viable solution.

In the age of constant social media sharing, I find it unlikely that they have no clue you're dating a black woman.
Just tell them. They might surprise you.

How am I fricking things up and why should I apologize to my family?

I think we're all in agreement that you just need to call and tell them
Best of luck to ya man

There is nothing wrong with black people being proud of being black

Lots of racism in America, hell all over the world as a matter of fact, from whites and blacks.

You’d have better luck posting here r/relationships

This is really simple. If you don’t know the right way to handle this, you’re a moron

You're probably right. I guess I just need to get it done. I'm defintely not ashamed of her, but I just fear this is going to cause shite.
Ill probably call them tonight after work. My folks are divorced so I got to make this call twice.

Is her name LaFawnduh? Did you ever get the time travel machine to work?

Do what makes you happy Ted and find out what the root of the problem with your girl is. I hope it's not a racial divide that is creating the issue.
Life is too short to be trying to appease everyone all the time. You just need to realize what makes you and your girl happy and go from there - even at the expense of your own family.
GOod luck sir

So, what does the OT advise on how I should approach my parents with this?
Start off with "She's pregnant and we're getting married". Let them cry a while about their brown grandkid.
Then you tell them "Nah, just kidding. She's not pregnant."

You are correct. And his racist parents already know. He said he introduced her to his children. They see his aunts, uncles, grandparents etc.
It has already come up, then worked it's way through to his parents. It probably took less than a week. Hell, some of his family has already showed them pictures on social media.
They know.

It would surprise me if they knew. I feel I would have gotten a call by now if they knew.
They don't do social media. Only way they'd see our pics is if one of my brothers or my sister showed them. But, I would expect they would have said something to me if they knew.

If you call one they'll call the other to blame them.
