I didn't let my parents know about him, but a week ago, my mom saw our picture on his website and now she told me not to date him any more because she doesn't like his appearance, and he is not from a wealthy family. :( He's so mad now that he wants to take me away. My mom has headaches every day and I know if he does it, she won't survive. :( I love him very very much and I don't know what to do now. I know I can't be happy with another man, but my parents won't let me marry him. They even don't want to listen to me. What can I do? :( Reply to this Question Share |

Hi my friend
You are in a very aquad situation!
I sugests you try and sit down with your parents and discuss it, if this does not work ask a family friend to step in and help.
If both of these fail i suggest, not moving far far away, but to stay with your boy friend for a week maby? a little while. This will show how dedacated you are to the relationship you have with your boyfriend. Im sure they will miss you and ask you to come back home, if you are living with your parents?
If not i suggest you go on a bit of a holliday with you boy friend, forget about the problems at home for a while.
come back and try and speak to your parents again.
Hope you take my advise well
good luck

surly they have another reason for not liking him? it would be very shallow of them to not like him just because of his income and looks.
i think you need to talk to them and just say that you are now an adult and who you date is up to you, not them. it;s your life, not theirs. you need to stick up for yourself more, you are no longer their little girl.
maybe arrange a dinner or something, where they can actually meet him properly and let them see that he is a nice guy. don't run away with him, that will just make your problems alot worse.
