He has been charge with assault 3 times (from fights that stated at bar when he was drunk) and was accused but never charged with rape. If any one would have said that I would end up dating him I would have laughed. in the last year we ended up hanging out through a mutal friend and he is a really nice guy, super sweet, and even he will admit he was an ass in the past but is doing his best to change. He adores my daughter (she is 2) and I really think he is the one. How can I show my friends and family that he changed?

If he has truly changed, and the relationship is clearly shown that it is healthy, there is no reason or worry that your family will accept him. For as I have learned Family protects, and always ensures your saftey first. I do know that people make mistakes, and are capable of change. That is life. What we are he to do. Peace.

My dear, your man is the one who would be responsible for showing your family how he has changed. He will do this by his actions. How he cares for you, how he cares for your daughter and how he cares for himself. Nothing you can say or do will convince them. So, give him opportunities to shine.
