Definitely. I always speak Vietnamese with my parents at home, because that’s their mother tongue and it just feels much closer than speaking French.

Growing up as an immigrant is a unique experience, at one point one of my previous girlfriends said “you should stop with your immigrant things”. I knew it was over (for other reasons too, but that was one of them)

My current partner also grew up abroad, so she knows what that is like to be a foreigner in another country. We also live in a country where none of us are locals. But we’re both fine with that, because we know how it is.

That’s harsh, sorry to hear…
