Question - (27 July 2007) 5 Answers - (Newest, 3 November 2007)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Recently, I found out that my boyfriend's parents... have discontempt for me. His mother told him "she's not good enough for you" and his father, on no real basis, thinks I'm a "druggie". Which I am not, just to state. I don't understand what I did wrong... I've been nothing but polite to them, courteous to them, and treated them with the utmost respect. They also don't like the fact that I'm 16 and he's 19... I love him, truly, but part of me wants to break up with him. I can't handle it.

I think that you should stay with him if you love him .

Forget about his parents.My boyfriends dad thinks im a druggie and i havent even met him yet i love him i couldnt imagin anything without him . He means alot to me and if he means the same to you then you shouldnt break it off over his parents forget abou them there not the one you love and just tell him how you feel tell him that your sick of his parents thinkin wrong about you. sometimes when you talk about things everything turns out right. and if he loves you he totally repect your feelings and understand what his parents are putting you through im sure he'll understand

you are way to young for him your only 16 and that may be a reason why his parents dont like you because if you feel like he did anything wrong and you go tell on him then he could got to jail....but i also wanna say that if you love him dont let him go follow your heart!

rockelle agony auntRelationships are hard enough without issues from family members. But how long have you and this guy been dating maybe there is still a chance for his parents to change their mind about you. Maybe you guys just got off on the wrong foot. Give them a chance be fair parents make mistakes too, if you truly love this guy stick it out if he treats you well and loves you in return at the end of the day its you and him. But you be the bigger person and make the effort to get along with his family if it doesn't work, dont worry you can still have a relationship if his parents aren't your #1 fans. Good Luck.

rachy-baby-helps agony auntRight well by the sounds of it his parents have no reason to treat you like this. Talk to your boyfriend about how you are feeling, he will understand especially if his parents have been saying these things to him about you.

Most parents find it hard to welcome their sons/daughters partners into their lives, this could be because they are insecure and think that their son will now want to spend much more time with you, which is very likey at his age.

Get your guy to talk to his parents about the way they are treating you. If you love each other nothing should come between you, not even parents, in time they will come to terms with you guys being together but for the moment carry on as you are, maybe try to get interested in some things they like doing, offer to help out, this shows willing to communicate and be friendly.

Other than that I'm afraid you will just have to wait, but there's no reason for you and your boyfriend to split because of this.
