I'm tired of the tension that comes from my family not liking him, and I've kinda fallen for someone else

Question - (19 June 2014) 3 Answers - (Newest, 19 June 2014)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been dating this guy for a year and the majority of it has been long distance relationship. I love him so much and his family is awesome and so sweet and they love me. my family however does not like him and feels he doesn't treat me right, he doesn't want to visit my family because he feels unwelcome and they aren't too nice to him. I recently started my summer job as a camp counselor and am working with a grab group of people, one of them I found out has a crush on me. and to be honest I have one on him too. I've been thinking about him a lot and what it would be like to date him because he is a sweet country guy. He asked me out today at camp and I said no but if we were in a group I would hang out with you. I feel so torn because I love my boyfriend but am honestly getting exhausted of having to be torn between my family and him and i don't know what to do. Also, I was planning to go to Disney with my boyfriend and his family for a week but now that I have a crush on this other kid I'm afraid to go because what if I go and I don't feel the spark between my boyfriend and I, and he spent all that money on me to go to Disney to just break up after it…I also haven't seen my boyfriend in 5 months :/

I think you should move on to pastures new. I bet your family are right about the way he treats you. The new guy sounds more promising.

I can't understand you love your boyfriend a lot and so sudden at your new job you start crushing and lusting for a new guy I mean your boyfriend must have done so much for you and he loves you a lot and he has spent his whole money just to meet you and spend time with you and you are just thinking about the spark in your relationship seriously I mean can't you see how much he is doing for you and just for some another guy you want to break your boyfriends heart well you are losing a nice guy don't do that forget the other guy and break all contacts with him

You have to come clean, both with yourself and these two guys. The longer you draw it out, the worse it becomes. It's now decision time and, whilst it may be a very difficult decision - like most things in life - you need to do it.

Either remain with your boyfriend, and try to acknowledge familial issues with an up front, honest conversation with him. Or end it, and try to start afresh with this summer camp crush. Both situations need time to work, in all honesty.

Good luck.
