I am 23 y/o turning 24 in a few months time, my immediate family like my boyfriend for me and we have no problem with them but the problem comes up with our distant relatives who don't agree with the fact that I have a boyfriend and since they're supporting my studies (medicine) I feel oblige to follow their principle, although they aren't saying things but that's how they're making me feel. Now they found out everything through my cousin, they did not say anything but they also did not support my study this year so now I am a BUM. I realized enough is enough I don't care whether they'll support me or not anymore, since i am already a degree holder I might as well pursue it and find a job instead and my immediate family also don't want what they're doing. Do you set a line between your relationship with your boyfriend and family? Do you ever have to make a decision of whom to choose? If so, why?

May be this is God grace that want you earn early and stand up by own, not on another support. Now its upto you hw you take this situation. happily or with sad note but you hve to take this as i personally feel that as you are degree holder now and its your immediate duty to take the responsibilities of yours and yours studies on own. I found nothing wrong with your distant relatives as remember nothing comes free, so if they support you, they must have some expectation, that why when they found that you have boyfriend, they stop supporting you. its very clear. nothing wrong init.
Now its upto you to show your relative, your strength that you can earn by ur own also. then they might reliase the value of urs.
