so my bf is french canadian and so is our roommate and they talk in french all the time around me and sometimes it just really annoys me. they both speak perfect english and it's like why not just speak english when i'm around?
i mentioned it to him one time (in sort of a pissy way because i was pmsing lol) and he basically told me to get over it and that nothing is being said that would offend me or disrespect me and that it's just easier for them to talk french, which i understand... but i still think it's rude though. i think if i was spanish and we had a spanish roommate and the 2 of us were talking in spanish all the time, i think he would start to get annoyed too.
is this my own issue and i should just get over it? |

I'm sorry, I stopped reading there. You should work it out with him. I don't know if that answer was coherent with the question. |

| I think it's rude. It isn't about what they are or aren't saying...it's about excluding your presence. It's like, "Hey, we know you're in the room, and though our conversation may not relevant to you, we're just going to ignore you anyway/not provide you with any opportunity to join us." |

| It is rude to exclude you by speaking french, but I've caught myself doing this as well. I'm a native Spanish speaker and sometimes it's hard to say things exactly how you want unless you speak your native tongue. |
