They are such busy bodies and have to know everything about our relationship. They treat him like a child and he is 26 years old. They give us sex advice (don't do it) all the time. I am 20 years old and do not need a sex talk. His whole family is super involved in his life and hates me. They tell him all the time I do not treat him right. They make him watch Dr. Phil episodes on relationships. His sister goes to school where I do and she is very rude to me in public makes comments whenever I run into her. Last summer I had enough of dealing with his family I broke up with him for just a few weeks and his family wrote bad stuff about me all over my facebook wall for everyone to see. I have been so miserable lately because I am just filled with so much hatred, misery because of his family. I really do love him and want to be with him but I can not go on being this miserable.

I believe you've posted about this before.
So what's your question?
My advice is to block his family on FB or to delete your FB all together. If you're going to date him, you're going to deal with his family. What happens if you two get married? It doesn't stop there. Either deal with it, and ignore them. Remember you're dating him, not his family. Or dump him for good because you can't deal with the extra drama.

If he's such a wimp that he lets his family walk all over him and you, you are fortunate to have escaped. Or would you prefer to marry him and have the lot of them for in-laws? Find yourself a man with the sort of glands attached to him that start with the first letter of 'Backbone' for a change and consiser yourself lucky that you now know how to recognise a loser.
