What if your parents does not like your boyfriend?

there is nothing wrong with it. if you love a guy, then his feelings should always be more important than your parents. i had been out of my parents house when i met the man i'm married to now. he's 15 years older than me. my parents have always hated him. just before we were to get married, my parents told me they were going to take me to court to have my son taken away if i married this guy. i immediately went to a lawyer and asked if they could do that. he told me they could try but would probably lose. i told them that i didn't care what they thought, that i loved this guy and was going to marry him whether they liked it or not. they took me to court just as they threatened. the court told them they have no rights to my son because they are just being malicious. to this day, i don't regret the decision to stay with my man.

I see nothing wrong with that. As long as you are not neglecting your studies, your boyfriend is a good man and you are not doing anything wrong, it is ok. Maybe your mom is just worried on you that is why she is not in favor with your bf.Continue your relationship with him and show to your mom that there is nothing to worry about you and your bf. I can advice also that you talk to your mom heart to heart and believe me she will understand you. She is your mom after and she was once at your age before.

hi green_peace! i think, as long as you are not neglecting your studies and other responsibilities, there's nothing wrong with going out with a guy older than you. as long as you still know what's right and what's wrong and that you are handling your time and priorities well, then your mother doesn't have anything against you. but i think you should make a move so that your mother can like your bf. and your bf should make efforts too so that your mother can like him. good luck.

I think it depends on the reason your parents don't like your boyfriend. If it has to do with something such as race I would say they are wrong and you should follow your own heart. However, I have dated people and for various reasons my parents haven't like some of them and what I found out in the end was that often they are right. Maybe they see something that you can't or don't because you care about this guy. Or maybe its just that they think he is too old for you and that you need to do some growing up before you date someone so much older. Eight years isn't a huge difference but when we are young we are at another level developmentally so only you can know if you are ready to have this relationship.

everybody has benefit of doubt, just try to prove them that you and your boyfriend deserve the relationship. let them think what they want to think, let them say what they want to say, keep the respect you have for your parents and let your boyfriend understand what they are like that, am sure sooner or later your parents will gonna like him. i experienced that!

hmmm let me think of want am i gonna say..hehe..but seriously, in some what we have the same situation, i also have this girlfriend of mind who "TOTALLY CHANGE" me, (my beliefs, perceptions and everything). before, girls who smoke is the major turn of for me, but my girlfriend is a smoker. before my mom kind a like my girl friend because the guardian of my girlfriend is an office mate of my m0m..but when m0m saw me and my girlfriend, my m0m notice that she's a smoker, since then my m0m hates mt girl friend, but no matter what my m0m says, i'll still stick to my girlfriend c0z she's the reason why i change a lot,and shes the only one who can make me smile whenever im down
