My husband and I have been together for 5 years.. and we have a great marriage now but it has had its really rocky times... and bad things have gone on, on my part I will admit.. but the bad part is that before anything bad happened his family hated. i mean without even really knowing me they couldn't stand me.. and now that is the only problem our marriage has is his family. and it hurts because they used to all be so close but not anymore because of me... there are times I think of leaving him so that he can have all that again.. but he loves me and I love him and I just want them to see that... I don't know how to feel can someone give me some insight... Do I stay and be with the love of my life or do I go and let his family him?

You are not married to his family you are married to him. Most hatred is due to jealousy. His family must feel threaten by you. All you can do is love your husband, try to keep neutral when it comes to his family. A good man is hard find. Stay with him and just keep the peace with his family. Im sure it puts your husband in a uncomfortable situation too. Dont bring up his family to him. Just stay NEUTRAL!!

If you love him and he loves you you should remain with him. Obviously don't stand in the way of him going to see his family whenever he wants, but don't deny yourself or him the love that you share. If you did that not only would you be breaking his heart, you would be setting things up to where he would most likely end up hating his family.

hi LIllyBelleDaisyRose oh my dear no, your husband loves you and rightly he should as you are a great person to worry about his closeness with his family and you owe his family nothing,. they are in the wrong not you and they surely have to see he loves you as much as you love him, and that should be enough for them.Nobody should hate like that just because they did not pick you out for your husband, they never gave you a chance and hats very wrong. Stick to your husband and maybe one day they will see how wrong they were about you. good luck and God bless. you stay with the man who loves you and whom you love.I know as I went through the same thing myself and love won out.
