My fiancée's family

I just became engaged to the love of my life and the man of my dreams.  We have been dating for a year and 2 months and have been wonderful, close friends for over 4 years.  I was hospitalized and very sick for over 4 months about 8 months ago and it was then that I really realized that life wont go on without him.  Anyways i'm having a really hard time being around his family.  His parents speak spanish at home to him and his three brothers and only speak english to me.  I understand that his parents want to speak it at home because it's their background but I hate it because I have no idea what they are ever talking about and I know my fiancée would tell me if it was anything about me or whatever but I hate it.  I have only eatten dinner with them once and don't want again now because I sat there and ate while they all talked but I had no idea what was said and then all of a sudden when they wanted to talk to me they would switch to english then go back to spanish.  We are going to Mexico for Christmas this year and I am not looking forward to it at all because I will be excluded like always.  I am only doing it and sacraficing my holiday for my fiancée because I love him and we wont be able to go back for a while because we will be starting a family soon and he hasn't been in several years.  I just dont know what to do about this, do I tell my fiancée how I feel eventhough he gets upset or what?

You are a liar if you say you've been to Florida and California and never heard Spanish there.  That's BS.  And that you saying we favor Mexicans isn't so.  We are telling you how it is but you are too pinche ignorant to listen to anything anyone has to tell you.  And may I ask you where you went to in Mexico?  You say it is so dirty and disgusting.  That is not true.  Mexico may be poor but it is rich in culture.  And if so terrible why the heck are with a Mexican????  One day he'll decide he wants to go back home and what are you gonna do?  Sit here on your little white b*itch @$$?  Think about it, this relationship has NO future what so ever and I pray to God that your poor fiance sees you for what you truly are and leaves you soon.

Your problem seems to be that they speak Spanish, and you've backed that up with how you think EVERYONE should speak English in your presence (regardless of whether they're in the US or in their own home) based on the fact that it is the official language in YOUR country. It's very difficult to agree with a xenophobic attitude like that.

This was about my fiance family speaking spanish!  I have been to the richer parts of both states, must be why I didn't hear any spanish!  I wasn't the one who started this post in this direction, read original post and you will see.
