My boyfriends family doesn't like me because I'm too young?
We've been going out for almost three years and he's older than my by alot I'm 20 and he's 55. I never told my parents about him I just left home and I have my own place I keep in contact with my parents but they don't talk to me anymore. I don't do drugs or any bad stuff but I kept getting dirty looks and I heard y bfs sister talking with him saying that I'm a mistake and that I'm only using him when I'm not at all I love him with all my heart and soul. I've went thru a hard childhood with my parents divorcing and always fighting and cheating. I don't want that with me and him. I wanted to live with him and he did say yes but I changed my mind cause I didn't know how his family would react towards me cause they see him alot often which I'm happy about. I want kids with him in the future but not now im focusing on my career but I told him I don't want kids cause I know his family won't like that all all. What should I do? Please no bad comment

That was smart of you not to move at the moment with him. His female family will always have a problem with the age thing. If he has a daughter you have bigger problems. Just take it one day at a time. Most relations seem to be 3 months or 6 years, figure which you fall into and maybe things might be easier for you. Most people bounce from one bad relationship to another, with people their age. At least your in a good relationship enjoy and just let them talk.

His family is going to feel the way they do no matter what you do. You may not be using him, but to most of society your relationship is considered taboo. If you love him and want it to work you have to deal with people who don't approve and go on living your live! They don't know if the relationship is genuine or not all they see is the 35yr age difference. If you know that both of your intentions are sincere then nothing no one else feels about you guys should matter! But you can't blame his family for how they feel that's a big difference, and they wouldn't be doing their job as his family if they weren't overly cautious about you. Although you may not be one of them, alot of young girls prey on older men for their money and vice versa, so you just have to deal with the stereotype that comes with that type of relationship!
