Yeah so apparently my dad eloped.

What.

Seconding the WHAT.

This is like my other friend finding out that his mother got a boob job after her divorce, but hiding it from her own mother.

Oh, yeah, and my dad's mom ran off to live with her boyfriend in California. She's in her mid eighties.

I always thought eloping was only something you did in english period dramas or if you were on heroin.

Or if you really just think your whole family is bollocks and would rather just tie the knot quietly for benefits and an excuse to go on an expensive vacation to bone.

More like heroin.

... with a woman???

Yes. Actually, he's been living with the woman since I was still in High School. But my whole paternal side of the family is up in arms because he's gotten married and honeymooning in Queensland, the only notice they got being an invite to the reception in December.

When I first heard, I thought he was just snubbing me. Turns out it was nothing personal.
