The way I was raised I don't really know what love is so I am not sure how to handle these feelings that are going on inside me. If what I feel is love, how do I express it to this man that I "love"?Also another question..My family really doesn't like this guy; actually they hate him, but I can't control whom I fall in love with so if what I feel is really love; how would I tell my family with out losing everything or losing the guy because of my family?

The best way to express love is to tell someone. Look him in his eyes and tell him "I love you." If things are they way that you think they are between the two of you then hopefully he will say it back and you two can have a new closeness and enter a wonderful new part in your relationship. Now about your family.... my advice would be to sit down with them and say that you love this guy and really care about him and he is going to be a part of your life. You understand they don't like him right now but it would mean so much to you if they could just take some more time to get to know him like you do. If you love this guy then there has to be something special about him that hopefully your family can soon see. Then maybe you can go to lunch with boyfriend and family and they can spend some time together and they can see how great he is. At this point if they still don't like him, I would just tell them straight up "there is nothing I can do about you guys disliking him because I love him and he is going to be a part of my life and so I am going to leave the ball in your court now and let you decide what to do" Best of luck
