Oh no, this sounds like an opening scene from a Lifetime movie, where the unsuspecting suddenly finds themselves surrounded by crazies. Creepy!

@Duckncover  What part of Virginia?  I'm in Virginia and this sounds like some serious backwoods stuff.  Good grief this would be a solid NOPE.  As soon as they showed me the camper I would have pulled him aside for a talk and said take me to a hotel and if you don't want to, I'll call for a ride. 

     No this wasn't some "Covid" thing. They obviously had no problem getting close enough to meet her and let her "boyfriend" sleep and eat in the house.  Nope these are some weird rude people period.  The fact the boyfriend accepted it, didn't let her know ahead of time I'd say most likely he knew unless this is the first girlfriend he ever brought home which sets up a whole other set of questions.  Dump him and run.  These people are crazy.  Like the rest said, the fact the boyfriend didn't have a problem with it means this is normal for him.  Just think if she married him and he decides she has to sleep in a trailer as opposed to the house.  I can't believe she was picking out wedding dresses for this weirdo.  She obviously didn't know him very well.

I would have been banging on the door with my toiletries telling them I needed to take a shower at least.  I agree with everyone that says he is not normal if he thinks his parents treatment of her was a good thing.  I do understand wanting to spend time with your children sometimes without someone else around.  The boyfriend should have said that if she had to stay banished outside in a camper they would just go to a hotel and stay.  He could have spent a few hours with them alone and caught up and told them after that the girlfriend would be joining them.

Well I would say she shouldn't even think about getting married right now.  Not because of how she was treated but because she is not talking about it with him.  There has been plenty of time for this topic to be discussed and possibly even rectified.  She choose to play the victim and suffer in silence.

Oh, I call shenanigans on that bull pucky.

Drop him and his rude/looney parents like hot potatoes.

No man is worth being treated like that.

 Easy decision - bow out now !  And in the process, thank his mother for the heads up into a life that she doesn't need to be a part of.  ****** it, ****** it in the bud !

Run from all of them, as quickly as possible.  Count your lucky stars to have it end there.  Unbelievable!!!  Run, run, run, as fast as you can...away.

This is one of the most weird things I have ever heard.

I believe that this incident is just the tip of the iceberg with that odd family and that includes the son who thinks it is ok that she was left alone for 4 days basically.  Sounds to me like sonnyboy is a mamma's boy.

I hope she kicks him to the curb.

I would be so proud of myself for being an independent person, just as my parents raised me to be. 

While the boyfriend and his parents were inside waxing poetic, I would have called a cab or Uber and would have quietly left, gone to the airport and gone home.  No fanfare.  No announcements. No hoopla.  Just quietly remove myself from a hostile situation.

And the relationship?  It would be over.  

[millieshops]

Why would she hang around waiting for him to propose?  I can hear Nancy Sinatra singing "These boots were made for walking" right now!
