Some times it seems to me that my partner hates my family.There are moments when they start to disscuss something and it turns into arguing,and he talk to them so rudely,that I want to hide under the table.I love him and I love them and their fights torture me.It looks like he is jealous or he wants to separate me with my family.Every time we have dinner together I am nervous and constrained because I expect another quarell.Sometimes he is nice with them,but the other day insufferable. Very uncofortable and unhealthy position for me to calm everybody down .And what is situation in your family?

I've actullay never had that problem. All of my boyfriends, and more iportantly my fiancee, have gotten along with my family. My fiancee especally loves all of my family and I can't think of a time when he's gotten in a fight with any of them.
Have you tried talking to your partner about this? Maybe if you explain it makes you uncomfortable he will make an effort to stop the fighting. I'm sure the last thing he wants is to hurt you!

During our first year my partner is not that close with my family but as the years passed, he has accustomed himself with our ways as family. Now, although he still not regularly attending family affairs, he is managing to get closed with the family. he's not rude and had proven himself worthy of the respect of all the siblings and of my parents.
