Have you dated someone your family or friends didn't like for you?

aww sorry for it^^ it happened to me before when i liked a guy by net and i said to my mum we would meet that i go to his country she didnt like it even more when i got angry with me and he called me a lot of bad names bcs thought i never wanted to meet him bcs my mum didnt let me meet him. first she said i can meet him but then she said i cant so when i said this he got angry and called me bad names and my mum even didnt like him more. anyway im not with him anymore bcs he was careless and i decided to break up. sorry that your parents and friends dont like him but if he is sweet to you why not?^^ just date him and if he acts bad then break up but if not continue^^ as long as he makes you happy^^

yes.. i guess.. my first boyfriend. my father is not talking to him ever. i cant rmember that he sat down with my then boyfriend and talk whatever. my mother is but i know they both don't like him not as who he is. i know that they know he's a good person but i was too young to get in to a relationship when i enter into that kind of relationship.

i have dated this one guy and we went steady for a few years too. my mom does not like him because he does not seem industriouops because he graduated before me (2 years) but when i graduated he still has not found himself a work! he he he it was just weird that he was contented already at waiting for the money his family would send him... hmmm, i kind of ignored that because he always tells me he was still looking for a job but his course was really rare and no readily available jobs is there for him. He is nice though, my friends like him and hes him as a very good person...

I don't believe there are too many people that have not been in this dating situation. Friends and family are not going to always have the same opinion of someone you are attracted to. When this happens, you have to try your best to let friends and family see what you see about the person you date.

no ,,,,,, no such incident.....

if you think that he is the right man for you, just follow the beat of your heart. Accept what other people's comment regarding your bf, just don't mind them. As long as the two of you love and respect each other, that's the important thing in the relationship.

It is unfortunate that they feel this way, but remember , you are the one that has to like him, not them. Now, I cannot tell you that it is easy like this because from my experience it is not! When my family didnt like who I was dating, it had a great impact on me because my family were very close and important to me. It made it very uncomfortable to be with family and him at the same time, which eventually I ended up "splitting" my time between them. I look at i this way, if you just started dating him, then I wouldn't worry about it, this might not get serious. but if it does, maybe over time your family will accept the relationshi and see that you are happy. Besides, that should be the most important thing anyway, your happiness!

It depends jesenia, how old are you? If you are still underage I think mom's approval is a must. I mean you must really listen to your mom because she knows what is best for you. Sometimes when we are in love, we cannot see the flaws of others specially if we are underage. We are tend to be impulsive and sometimes it will lead us to a wrong direction. Then you will come to realize after all your regrets and self blame that how you wish that you listen to your mom. But if you are on the right age, you know what is best for you and whenever you will fail, you are old enough to handle the situation. If you like the guy, you can give him a chance to prove that he is worth to have you even if the whole world will disagree. And I think your mom wouldn't oppose you and your feelings for the guy because you are old enough as I was saying. And maybe it was only your mom's first expression and I believe that it will still change through time.

oohh..that's sad.. it would be nice to date someone that your family and friends approve with.., you wouldn't like hearing negative feedback about your guy right? especially from them.., but it doesn't mean it should affect you.., if you really like someone.., then disregard what other people would say about him..what is important is.., you're happy with each other..=)

I did. I didnt really date him but I allowed him to court me and my Mom was really furious about it (I still can imagine her reaction that day). She personally doesnt like the guy's family and mind you he's 3 years younger than me.

When i begin dating my wife, after couple of month dating, i present her to my mother, and she (my mother) told me that didn't like her, that night i have a little discussion with mother, and she accept what i do, because she knows that i'm big enough to take my own decisions.
