What do you think you should do when the relationship you have been having is great, but it just isn't "right". I've been dating this guy for a year or so. And what makes it so hard to break up is that my family REALLY LOVES him and I'm afraid they won't like my next guy in the future as much. What in the heck do i do?

If the guy isn't right for you, you shouldn't stay with him for any reason, especially for your parents. It helps that they like the guy but it's YOUR life and you need to find someone who's right for YOU to spend your whole life with.
If they don't like the net guy as much tell them to get over it and to accept him because he's right for you.

Well, think about how you feel going on like this indefinitely. If it doesn't feel right and you think it's never going to, then why stay? So what if your family might not like a future guy as much- it hasn't happened yet- they may turn out to like him more. It's your relationship, you're the one who has to live with it and exist in it, so it's your choice what you want to do.

You need to do whats right for you. You aren't helping anybody by prolonging the inevitable. If you don't want to be with him any more then you need to let him know. Your family may not like the next guy but how would you know if you don't give them the chance to meet him????

Follow your heart! Your family loves you. They should understand and want you to be happy. Talk to this man. Maybe he has some ideas, too! If he is great - he might just be greater after the talk.

First you have to realize that the relationships you have are for you and not to please your family. If it is not working, change it. Alternatively you can wait until the right person comes along before you decide to make the change.

You do what you want to do and that is it........... your family may really LOVE this guy, but your happiness means more to them then being with him. You come first and always.

You have to ask yourself if you are living your life for you, or for your family? Your family will get over it. Use your intuition, if you think there is something wrong there usually is.
