writes: Hello,I have been with my boyfriend for 5 yrs and we are crazy about eachother. The only problem is our families- they dont like eachother, and dont want me and my boyfriend to be together. Recently, we have decided to get engaged, but when his mom found out, she called me and started yelling at me wanting to keep me away from her son. I didnt know what to tell her so I just hung up the phone on her.Its been 2 days now, and there is no sign of my boyfriend since this incident with his mom. I dont want to call him, because he's staying over at his mom's place and I dont want to risk the chance of her answering the phone. I just dont know what I should do now. I miss him so much and I dont want to loose him. Any advice?

We just decided that we wanted to, and before we planned anything formal, his mom called.My family and his have fallen out because they are as different as night and day. We come from different sects, different origins, different social class....thats why they don't like eachother. Its so bad because me and my bf get along so well despite all our differences...but our families just cant accept it.I really want to call him to find out what happened, but I don't want to seem so desperate after the humilation i recieved from his mother. I wish he would call but he hasn't. Its been 4 days now.... Do you still think I should be the one who calls?Thank you all

you should ring him! you have every right to know what is going on! he should do the right thing and contact you, and let you know what is happening. you have just got engaged! you should be happy and planing the party, not have to worry about his family! maybe this is a taste of what the future with him will be like, is this what you want? but at the same time you cant let his mum win. you really have to get incontact with him! good luck. please let me know what happens!

As long as you two are happy, it doesn't matter. If he's listening to his parents about the wedding, he hasn't grown up yet, and he's not ready to be engaged. It sounds like you need a man and not a little mama's boy.

You have every right to ring him whether his mum answers the phone or not. You need to know what's going on.
Why did yours and his families fall out?
