writes:I wonder if anyone has any advice about how to "break through" to ones boyfriend's family. They maintain such a tight hold on him, none of the siblings are married and its not exactly incestuous, but. Whenever I try to push through the barrier, following my heart, they get so outraged! I want to like them, but it's hard when I feel such antipathy when I don't follow their dead-end protocol. I feel they want to choose his date, but I think he's in love with me.

older than me, so you're right, he should be able to be his own person.
I just wish his family would like me.

If you've shown your willingness to meet them and all that, I think you've done your duty. But if that age range up there is correct and he is also close to it, he should have been his own person a long time ago. I think all you can do is make him realize that.
