interracial and eloping

I'm still a university student have a very long way to go before finishing. I'm 22 turning 23 and March. So I'm young but not "too young." Everyone my age has kids already! However, my boyfriend of 6 years and I are going to elope. We're going to get married at court and move in together by April. It took about 3 years for my mom to accept the idea that I'm with a Guatemalan man FROM Guatemala. For my dad, it's still taking some time. He loosened up a bit but is still not too happy about our relationship. I can understand a little where their racism comes from but after so long love doesn't have borders and a person shouldn't be generalized and viewed that race. I believe it's all about the person, not their skin color or country. My mom is Italian American and my dad is from Lebanon. They're not of the same ethnicity either. Yes, they're both white but that doesn't mean anything. I got engaged on New Years eve and didn't tell my parents because they'll both cry and scream at me. They'll tell me to take it off. Knowing how they are, they do things like that. It's funny because they like the guy but they don't like his race so they don't want me being with him, but they like him and say he's a sweet guy. 😂 I don't get it.
