Hi

I used to go out with this guy, who i really liked but he broke up with me a few weeks after me losing my virginity to him. I was angry at the time but got over it quite quickly!.....But my parents, family and close friends did not and still speak badly of him!

Anyway we meet up for the first time in ages last year and really got on but he was with someone at the time, he now has a child with her, they broke up but are still fairly friendly with each other.

we have gradually started meeting up and seeing each other more and i really like him and he feels the same...the only problem is breaking this to my family and friends because they hate him.....!!!

Any advice would be great!!

Thankyou!!

No matter how terrible the guy is, your family will back you up. Right up until he does something to break up the family or hurt your family, where they feel threatened, your family will back you up. They may not like it, they may have comments you dont want to hear, but just remember they are looking out for you and you only. They want the best for you and dont want to see you get hurt. usually they're right if they dont have a good feeling, but once in a while, if the guy changes, things can work out.

hlskitten agony auntWell its your job to make them believe that. If you are sure he's a reformed character, tell them you're not daft, you wouldn't even think of getting back with him if he hadn't turned over a new leaf! Then keep your fingers crossed he doesn't let you down again mate!

confussed????? is verified as being by the original poster of the question

He wasnt the best of people while we were together, was with a bad crowd of people and did some drugs..only marijuana but that upset them. He's completly changed now but i dont think they'l believe or understand that...

hlskitten agony auntYou dont say why they hate him? Is it just because he finished with you and broke your heart? I guess thats understandable and they would be worried he would do it again. But it could of been worse and he cheated on you or was rough with you etc?

Probably best to see if its going to go somewhere before you break it to them? Ultimately its your decision though isn't it. You're an adult?
