Question

If a man would come along, that was everything you wanted and dreamed, and your famiy didnt like him, would you just try to stay away from your family as much as possible,would you ignore it, or just never bring your boyfriend around your faimily? Just curious

Answer 1

This happened to me. I met a man and fell into love and married him a month after we met. My family though he was a punk and his family thought I was a user. Well guess what, we stayed away from them for two years before they finally accepted the fact that we love eachother and want to be together, it has now been 10 years and I am glad I didn't listen to my family, cause they don't have to live my life, I do, so I need to make my own decisions. We can't go our whole lives, basing decisions on other peoples feelings instead of living our lives based on what we feel inside.

So don't worry, if you like him, your family will eventually accept the fact you two want to be together. Your family may not be as dramatic as mine, but even so, you need to make your own choices. Happy Thanksgiving.

Answer 2

I would want to know why my family didn't like him. Perhaps I'm "blinded by love" and they see something I don't. I have a pretty cool family and if they didn't like the person I loved I'd be concerned about that.

Ultimately though, if my family doesn't love somone I love that is their problem, not mine. I am an adult capable of making good decisions and I would expect my family to respect that. I don't have too much patience for drama.

Answer 3

you're very conflicted and that's a complicated subject. in line with threat you basically prefer to be a guy who likes to pass gown now and returned and subsequently you would be heterosexual, and commonplace with that one quirk. that's extremely hassle-free. surgery to re assign is a sizable deal and you will possibly prefer quite some scientific care previous to this way of drastic pass. get expert help.

Answer 4

Never bring him around my family, there's got to be a good reason on the parents side of the argument. But I would be with him unless it didn't work out.

Answer 5

Ultimately, I would do what is best for me and what makes me happy in the long run. But, I would be concerned about why my family didn't like him. If they have legitimate reasons to dislike him, you have to realize your family loves you and wants what is best for you, and, most likely, they are not disliking him just to annoy you.

I would suggest talking to your family candidly about why they dislike him. Is it the way he treats you? Does he not show your family respect when he is around them? Does he have qualities that your family doesn't like? Or is no one good enough for you in their eyes? Maybe they see something in him that you do not see because you are so into him right now.

Talk to your family and decide what your best course of action would be. Good luck!

Answer 6

Never bring my boyfriend around my family! But they wouldn't stop me from seeing him...especially since I've never been with someone I'd call close to "man of my dreams".

Answer 7

Family should be the most important thing in your life, you should never ignore them, if your family doesn't like him there must be a reason why and maybe your just not seeing it right now

Answer 8

I would keep them apart if possible. I'm sure my bf would try being more flexible and tolerant than my hard-headed family would. Just to keep the peace I guess they'd just have to stay away from each other.
But if either side asked me to choose sides... I wouldn't.

Answer 9

The man of my dreams would be accepted by my family. That's part of my dream.

Answer 10

It frequently does come down to that in relationships. You have to ask yourself: do I want my old family, or my new one. The advantage to the new one is that you actually had some say in it. Good luck!!
