writes:I so am sad all the time and miss my ex-boyfriend of almost 5 years. We've been together through out high school college and just recently broke up in march, but we still talk sometimes until it gets too hard on one of us. Our relationship was only but happy. We hardly ever argued. I still love him and i think he still loves me too. The reason we broke up was because i felt like he didn't let me go out anywhere alone without a fight or accusing me of cheating. Another outside issue that we broke up is because he is jewish and i am christian. Although his parents are not bothered by this, my parents and entire family absolutely forbid it. I am very respectful to my family and I don't want to lie to them. I have talked to them and my parents do not approve of him just because of the religion difference. My parents think i can do better and marry rich because they are having very tough financial times and don't want me to go through the same thing. My ex boyfriend didn't go to college but is a very hard worker, working at a mortgage company and trying to make money any which way possible. Everyone that i talk to i don't feel like i have any chemistry with. I miss him and love him, but don't know what to do because my parents wont approve...

reader, anonymous, writes (25 November 2008): You shouldn't let your family force beliefs onto you that you don't agree with. If you love him then you shouldn't let that get in the way. You're not a child any more, if your family disapprove so much then move out, they're the ones missing out, not you. However I fear your relationship will just be repeating itself with all the accusations. You have to let him know that you will only stay with him if he stops the accusations, and that only time will tell how faithful you are. If you both love each other enough then you can make it work, you can't let him control you, at the same time you can't let your parents control you either =]
