My mom and current boyfriends mom and myself all work together, and they (our moms) want us to be together. I dont have the same feeling for him as he has for me. I still love my ex boyfriend even though my parents dont like him that much but he treats me great. What is your advice??

I was MADLY in love with a guy I dated for THREE years. But we were totally wrong for eachother. If I had stayed with him, I would currently be the girlfriend of a loser druggie with no job or goals. Yeah, the attraction was strong, but it takes more than that to be happy. Luckily, I found the right guy for me. We want the same things out of life, hold the same ideals, have enough in common to get along, but are different enough to keep things interesting. We have been married almost 2 years now and have a beautiful daughter. So... my answer is NO, loving someone doesnt always mean you should be with them. It depends on your situation.

Just because you love them does not mean you are in love with them, or that you should be together. Some people can love, and be loved, but they just cannot get along or be together. It's tough love, but we all experience it at one time or another. Do not stay with someone just because you love them...do you like each other??(big difference over love) do you get along??? are you in love??? If you do not have the same feelings for someone all you are doing is hurting them and yourself by staying in the relationship. Be true to yourself and the other person involved, before it gets worse, and you start to resent yourself for staying. You're not dating your parents....this is yours and your boyfriend's relationship...leave the moms out of it.

I believe your parent only want what is best for you, sometimes if we think about we really do not know what is the best thing for us.
If your ex-boyfriend treats you well work things out so that your parents would be open minded enough to re-meet your ex-boyfriend, so that they could see in him what you see in him.
Maybe all of you could have a nice dinner, maybe ask your ex if he would be open to the idea to make a nice meal for your family that should earn him some brownie points.
Your parents would see for themselves how much you and your man love one another and how you get along, it could be that their opinion of him maybe changed for the better.
Your parents would also see the your boyfriend is willing to put in effort, and his best foot forward and that should help your family grow in the positive way.
Best of luck to you, and I hope this helps.

Get out of the gossip and find whats best for you! how dumb of you to let your personal life be dictated by gossiperz,( all moms are gossiperz)lol, what you should do is get a life! leave that job or go to college, leave the nest already, do you know what I mean, and dump that loser of a ex, why do you think people call their ex.... EX, well because its ended already and you need to move on...

well if you don't have feelings for that person than why bother. but if you love someone than yes you should be with them no matter what. common sense comes along with everything too so just be careful as well. you may be wasting your time plus his. but if you feel like you want to try than just give him one chance.... go out with him and see what happens. at least he can say at least you tried.

Follow your heart. Never settle for less than your deserve. Moms need to butt out.

Don't ever date some one because other people want you to. You're the one who has to date them, not your mom.
