Unhappy Soooo, I need some advice.......

Here's my dilemma. My boyfriend and I have been together for a year. I moved down here to Arizona from Oregon to be with him, and ended up moving in with him - so obviously it's really serious (I know, some may say it was too soon to move in, but it didn't feel rushed to us). My boyfriend is Jewish. I'm not Jewish... not in any way... I've got blonde hair, blue eyes, and was raised Christian. However, if you don't know, most Jewish parents would prefer that their son/daughter marry a Jew. I'm also taking a Judaic Studies class at UofA so I can learn more about the religion. My professor brought this topic up tonight. So, when I got home, I asked Peter if his parents always wanted him to marry a Jewish girl. He said yes.

I'm already not 100% comfortable around them. I've never had a problem meeting parents until his parents. Don't get me wrong, they're super nice people and I adore them, it's just... I don't want to do or say anything to make them think poorly of me because I think Peter is "the one." I was just starting to really be a lot more comfortable around them. So now, I find this out, and it makes me feel like I'm going to go back in my shell again.

AND, to add fuel to the fire, I have a tattoo of a Playboy Bunny on my lower back. It was a dumb thing I did when I was 18 and regret it. I've been going to try to have it removed, but the first thing I tried didn't work. So last night they came to Petsmart after my puppy's training class. Apparently I bent over to pick up Ferdinand (my pup) and they saw the tattoo. They already knew I had it, but I don't think they knew what it was. So Peter told me tonight also that they saw it.

So I'm sitting here thinking great, now I'm REALLY going to be uncomfortable around them! It just sucks. I hate feeling this way but it's really, really bothering me. I should be in bed sleeping right now but this is all I can think about.

Sometimes I just feel like I'm not good enough for him. Has anyone ever felt that way? Wow, I'm being really overemotional right now - I guess it is that time of the month for me.

Sorry for rambling on and on. Guess maybe I just needed to get it out of my system
