boyfriends family??

If you are going to be living close to his family, make a break now. Your life WILL BE MISERABLE!! Your lives will be regularly sabotaged. If you plan to live out of state or at least 100 miles away, then keep dating, but limit contact. Talk to your boyfriend about it. If he expects you to do a lot of things with his family, then perhaps this is not a match made in Heaven. Inlaws are the 5th cause of divorce.

BTW, do tell your boyfriend the problem even if you choose to leave. It's best he knows that this is going to be a problem. My brother and SIL are still together because they moved 1000 miles away from both my parents and her parents (her mother hated my brother and my parents don't much like my SIL).

Some folks are very lucky that the inlaws changed their minds, but you have to be prepared to be a family by yourselves if they don't.

You are going out with your boyfriend not his family. Try not to spend time with them and talk to your boyfriend about it maybe he can smooth things out or at least tell you why his famiy don't like you. If you love your boyfriend then what his family think should not be that big an issue. I know it is a nightmare in that situation though.

If you really care for your boyfriend, his parents shouldn't stop you from being with him. Unless you really can't deal with them or if they won't allow him to be with you- then that's a different story.

I was in a very similar situation but it was with my parents and my boyfriend. They hated him, and made me break up with him. I'm still heartbroken and hurt by what i had to do. Hold on to the relationship if you think you can handle the parents. Don't do the same mistake i did..

Personally, I would try to be really kind to his family even though they didn't like me. If you and your boyfriend really care about each other than don't break up! That would be exactly what they would want. Don't throw your feelings for each other away just because of his family. Please don't.

You are not in the relationship with the family; you are in the relationship with HIM. I would stick it out, and don't let it get to you. If you care for the guy, then this minor problem can be overcome.

Stick it out if you like him. Always be polite to his family, but don't worry too much. If you've given it the ol' college try, that's all you can do.

My in laws didn't like me when i was dating their daughter, In fact they despised me and forbid her to see me. But we did anyway and as time went on they grew to like me and now they think the world of me. It takes people time to get to know someone, give them time and don't do anything in front of them that will make them want to judge you. Be nice to them when ever possible. sooner or later they will see the good in you and accept you as family. Good Luck.

i would stick it out and be with him! they need to remember that its not THEIR decision who their son dates...and if hes happy then they need to respect that and at least try to get a long with you...cause what if you guys get married, they need to be respectful of their son and what hes happy with!!! i mean yeah it does suck cause you cant ever do anything with the family but it shouldn't matter...if he loves you and is happy with you then i say screw them!!!

if you love your boyfriend, stay with him. He'll hate his family if you break up with him because of them. Maybe talk to him about it?

i actually broke up w/ my bf of 5 years because of his mom, there was some other issues too, but that was the main one. good luck.
