Explain to them how you feel about him and how he feels about you and tell them to give it a chance before they disagree with it. My boyfriend is 5 years older then me and i thought my family and friends would never agree with it but i explained to them how i felt and how close we was and how much better he treated me than the other guys. I new they want happy but i brought him round to my house and introduced him to my family and they gave him a chance and now they treat him like part of the family. Also with my friends i told them gradually because girls are usuall bitchy when theres alot of them together and everyone accepted us. If the age gap is huge then things may be harder but if your sure things are gonna work out and all the grief you could get is worth it don't hold back and tell people the longer you wait the more questions they ask. Good Luck xxx

first of all, how old is he? parents and loved ones will tend to be cautious about these sorts of things because they KNOW that in most cases the older guy could be too much for the younger, more innocent sweetheart [i don't know if you are, but that's what they thing] to handle.
integrate him slowly into your life. that is the best advice i can give. i hope he isn't really old, or else i would try to talk you out of it with my own personal experiences!
good luck.
