“What do you mean your boyfriend isn’t Greek?”
Without fail, they made you go to church with them every Sunday.
If you told them you were dying of the plague, they'd still make you go with them.
They strongly encouraged you to marry someone who was Greek and would play matchmaker despite your protests.
When they found out you were dating someone who wasn't Greek Orthodox they thought it was the end of the world.

The quickest way to disappoint them would be to miss a Greek school class.
Because how else would you be able to speak to your hundreds of relatives in Greece?
They taught you how to shake your hips to all of the best Greek folk dances.
And they would make you show off your dancing chops whenever there was a family gathering... which was often.
