Telling about and introducing boyfriend to dad

Do any ladies who come from strict families have any suggestions?

I know some won’t understand and see that it’s not a big deal, and it’s not especially because I love my boyfriend so much. I see that it’s culturally conditioning that makes me so nervous to finally introduce my bf to my Latino dad. My mom knows and loves him since I’ve known him for years but something about him finally meeting my dad gives me a lump in my throat.

To clarify a few things, we’re both 22 and I’ve met his family and his family dynamic and socioeconomic is just so different from mine (that makes no difference in the way we love each other) but if you were in my shoes you might understand. I want to introduce him to my dad about now but I get so scared what his reaction will be.

I’m not afraid that he won’t approve because he’s a wonderful guy and either way, I wouldn’t care. It would just be nice if my dad wouldn’t be rude to him or weird since I feel my bf deserves kindness like his fam has done for me. Any Latina or similarly cultured individuals have any tips or stories of how they went through the uncomfortableness of it?

Ps i appreciate not hearing about how “weird” it is that I feel about it. I KNOW and also think that for most people it’s nbd and wish it was that simple for me, I just would like to hear some well-intentioned suggestions from anyone who’s gone through the same 😊
