me and my boyfriend have been broken up for the past 6 months. However, im still crazy about him and i know he still loves me too. We have been broken up for 6 months we have never gone without talking for more than a month. He either calls or i call or he comes to my college. however, the reason why we broke up isnt because of us my mother didnt approve of him and made us break up. Now he tells me he still has feelings for me but he dosnt want me and my mom always fighting and he isnt ready to change and be the person my mom would approve because he still wants to have his fun. Now we are back to the usual not calling for days and showing up after a while. i dont know what to do im still crazy about him and i cant stop thinking about him.

Jillybean234 agony auntThe greates thing in life to learn is to love, and be loved in return. WHAT ARE YOU THINKING/DOING!! You just said you love him & he loves you! Thats all you need! Go to him,stay with him, be happy. If your so crazy about him and love him so much, go for it! Dont pass the feeling by! Hope for the best, maybe your mother will soon realise how crazy you are about him and see the good in him. If he makes you happy then im sure your mom will see that in good time. But you have to show her that your not giving him up. Your mom is probably overprotective and loves you to death and wants whats best for you. However....she has probably imagined in her head this perfect guy for you and obviously, its not your boyfriend haha. But maybe she will see what it is in him that makes you love him. CALL HIM NOW, TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM AND YOU WANT TO BE WITH HIM:) if you dont call him i will and set you two back up:) haha. best of luck! 3

my girlfriend broke up with her ex for the same reason,

her family hated her ex, they said she has changed, that she never went out anymore and that she didn't see her friends either. and all he did was stay at their house the whole day. they never even talked to him after a while.

the fighting eventually was too much and she broke up with him, but still saw him on the sly. until she met me and ended it with him.

she said that after they broke up she just fell out of love with him eventually, and was still just seeing him just for the sake of being with someone.

he is still crazy for her, and practically floods her with sms's at times. she says he isn't but of course he uses scaly tactics, especially on holidays to get her to talk. i am not bothered with him as he was pretty unattractive and am secure in my relationship.

my advice is that you should let it go.. eventually one of you will end up with someone else, or loose interest. i would rather have good memories of the other person, and know he still has good memories of me, instead of one of us having no feeling at all of the other one.

you will most probably be upset with your family for a long time, but once your family likes the guy you are with, you will feel so much ease and realise how nice it is for everyone to get along...

Good luck
