Okay, here's all the bitter and brutal details.I've been going out with my boyfriend, Ethan, for a year *STRAIGHT*.No break ups at all.Sure we've had our arguments and we've had our fights but that's not the problem.The problem is his parents. His mother hates me and I don't know why! I'm not disrespectful,I'm not a slut,I go to church, and I do whatever the damn woman asks me to but she can't stand me.I've been putting up with her through the whole relationship and now it's to the point where she has Ethan's dad brainwashed and whipped to the point where he doesn't even talk to me anymore.Ethan's dad used to be on myside because truthfully he knows that there is no reason not to like me.The bad part is that Ethan's been getting in trouble for no reason and you know what his punishment is?His punishment is he can't see me.He can go see anybody else in this damn world as long as he doesn't see me.They're doing whatever they can to keep us apart.Yes,Ethan and I are young but we're in love.Why can't they just let us be happy?I'm at the point where I've had enough and sometimes I want to go back to my old habit(see my name and you'll know what that is)and sometimes I just think it would be better for Ethan if I just ended things with him.I love him so much and that is the last thing on this Earth that I want to do.I'm just so scared that I'm going to lose him... :'( |

Do NOT leave him. What he need now is for you to keep fighting for him. Live for YOU. Life is about being yourself and finding someone who loves every bit of it. If you've found that someone, do whatever you can to keep it. If he loves you, that's what he wants to. Maybe pretend to break up. Plan something where you two date in private and have his parents thinking you've broken up and become just friends. Even if you weren't the picture perfect person for Ethan's mom, you should still fight to be with him. Be who you are, no matter what. You don't live to please everyone else. The most important thing is that you like you. |

Sounds like the dude's mom is a psycho, which sucks. Maybe she'll get over it. Don't go making major changes, especially ones that will make the poor guy even more distraught. Talk to him about what you guys think about the situation. Sometimes adversity draws people together rather than push them apart. |

I hate parents who are uber strict. I mean, you should trust your kids. Give them the freedom to make their own decisions, guide them the right way, let them screw up, don't kill them, just help them to learn, and you'll have the most mature person in the world. Sure parents can say 'It's not you I don't trust, it's everyone else' which in some way is true, but if something terrible happens, it does. You can't hide your kids in safehouses their whole lives. They have to grow up so they can fend for themselves. How can they do so if you keep them caged and don't let them experience things like love and relationships? |

Wow!You ppl sure have been busy the few days that I haven't been on.Oh and you wanna know something else that's bad???Ethan's grandmother&his mom tried to get him to cheat on me!!!!!!!!He didn't of course but, still.Just the fact that they tried to get him to kills me inside.I mean,I REALLY REALLY REALLY LOVE him!!!I've had my ups&downs in relationships just like everyone else but for once I feel like I'm not going to wind up hurt in the end.It's weird cause when I try to be all I can be to make someone happy somebody else has to come and knock my feet right out from under me.Heck!I don't even really know his grandmother!I've met the woman once and that was only for like 2 minutes and she hates me just as much as Ethan's mom does.I'm just soooooo sick of it!!!!I mean, there's no telling how many times I've cried myself to sleep because of his family.I've got to point plenty of times where I just wanna say eff it&break up with him because I think it would better for him.That's all I think about.Him!What would be best for him???What would make him happy in the long run??? |

The best thing is, is to talk to him about it. If you've gone through your arguments and all that, but those were nothing. This is a problem you both need to work out on. Talk to him and his parents and figure out why she doesn't like you. |

Thanks.I'll try it.Here lately she hasn't been being so bitchy.She's actullay kinda being nice but that's how she was last time.I think she's setting me up only to knock my feet out from under me and stab me in the back.I don't know but I don't care what she thinks anymore.I'm in love with her son and she isn't going to split us up.I'll do whatever it takes to stay with him because he is the best thing that has ever happened to me.If she doesn't like me dating him she can just get over cause nothing is going to break us up. |
