Moving across the country with my boyfriend

Feeling like partners are seen as optional extras rather than part of the family unit

What I wish I knew
"How to set healthy boundaries in situations where family traditions conflict with building our own life"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner and consider each other's feelings when making decisions involving family"
