    well it really depends on why they wouldn't liek the guy. If they have a good reason, such as, he's a druggy, or he's a manipulative freak, then i don't blame you're friends, but if they don't KNOW the guy, and they say crap about him...then they have no right whatsoever to judge whom you date. Plus, if they WERE good friends, they'd WARN you, but still be SUPPORTIVE of him b/c YOU like him.

    Well let me just say this it is your decision in the end, BUT, I also have to say that friends and family are only looking out for what is best for you. It seems that when people fall for someone they become blind to things and are more accepting of there faults even if they seem to harm us, because the love is soooooo strong that they just want the relationship to work. But from my own experience if I would of listened to my family and friends on guys I have choosen it would of saved me a lot of pain amongst other things. Friends and family are more aware of what is best for you because they don't have love or the likeness for the person blinding them. So I say you should listen to them unless there reasoning for not being with him is just about outrageous things, or if it is because they are jealous.But if there points on why not to be with him make sense LISTEN TO THEM!

    Girl go for him if he's really what your after. Don't let your friends make your mind for you! thats like switching brains with someone and doing the choices they make. Not you. But you should listen some what. Like if they say that they say him smoking, doing drugs, ect.... He may not be the best choice. But really, it's up to you girl! FIRE AWAY!

    friends' opinions sometimes cannot be trusted..but if you're with them for a long time or you know them well, i think they won't say such things without any proofs..just be careful,,you may not know that one of your friends is inlove with the guy you like..that's why you receive negative reactions..just don't be blind for the truths to be revealed one of this days..good luck gurl...!

    well you should just discuss it with your friends. i mean they shouldnt like disown you because of a relationship you enter. If you really like the boy and think it could go somewhere i would go for it but just tell your friends before hand that your into him

    maybe you should concentrate on your relationship instead of what people think of it. If he treats you well and you like him fine. If you is bad to you get the f--- out. It is your life not your friends.

    It shouldn't depend on your friends at all. It's totally your decision. Sure, it would be nice if they liked him, but if they don't, big deal. They're not the ones who are going to be going out with him. =]

    if your friends dont support you then there are not your real friends. real friends would support you no matter what and get used to the fact that you like him even tho they dont.

    are YOU or your FRIENDS dating this guy?

    just go for it and find out for yourself if he's for you. you might miss on getting to know a good guy.
