I've been with a guy for three years. I have a feeling that he might propose soon but the problem is that I absolutely hate his family. I know hate is a strong word but I can't even begin to explain these terrible people. (Both sides of the family maternal and paternal) Is this a reason to totally break up with the guy or what? How do you tell someone that you truly hate their family? That is pretty harsh.

How is his relationship with his family? Does he see what you don't like about them? You need to have a long, honest conversation with your b/f if you are thinking long term commitment here. I happen to have the mother-in-law from hell, but my mother is no walk in the park herself. As a result, my husband and I stay in our own home and keep the contact to a minimum. They can be negative all by themselves!

Coming from a marriage with a terrible mother in law....it can be really difficult to get along because that person is and will always be into your marriage...I hated every bit of it and if I knew then before I got married to him that his family was going to be this way I would never have stayed with him...it can and will make ur life miserable...let him know and if he is a man then he will adress his families behavior...in the Bible it says to cling unto your wife and leave your parents...I hope ur boyfriend can see that and make peace between u and ur family

When you marry him the family comes along with the deal. Same for him. Your family becomes his family as well. You will have to be part of their lives for the rest of your life, so think long and hard about this. You certainly shouldn't ask him to choose between you and his family. Also, do you want his parents to be your childrens grandparents? You have lots to think about.

It's the same here for me and my in-laws! I despise them but I LOVED them before we got married- as soon as we got married they assumed that my every move was their business! They were snotty and nosy- always trying to cause trouble.
At first my husband wouldn't stand up to them instead he'd tell me that's just the way they are...blah blah blah....
Finally he got sick of hearing their crap whenever he visited and stopped having anything to do with them.
If your boyfriend is close to his family I can bet you'll be screwed in the long run.

finally undesirable administration and incompetence receives said and skill are taken to ideal the wrongs. It does no longer bypass on forever, both the managment differences or the country falls......i go with to vote for a administration replace because this one reeks of incompetence. i imagine that Bush has performed many wrongs aided and abetted through his Republican friends. i imagine in the destiny, even as all is asserted and performed, they are going to answer for those things, if no longer to the american human beings then to a more suitable skill. he takes no responsibility for his blunders right here yet in the right, he will be said as to job for them. the unhappy component to it quite is that even as he keeps on his merry and inaccurate way, human beings will proceed to die each day. too a lot blood of yank squaddies has been spilled needlessly.

You fail to include one important piece of the puzzle to answering this question - how he feels about his family. If he's not fond of his family, but is respectful to them because after all, they are his family, it could work, though it won't be pleasant when you do have to be around his family.
On the other hand, if he sees nothing wrong with his family's behavior, then this simply isn't going to work.

If you end up marrying this guy, you will eventually "marry" his family as well- I'm sure he wouldn't skip out on family functions for you, just because you don't like his family. I think you know what you need to do!

It would probably be best for you to find someone else, who's family is not so disagreeable to you. You could not have a peaceful and happy life together with those feelings on board.

Does he know how you feel about his family?
Something for you to think about....
