llifton agony auntPeople have to keep in mind that other cultures have differing customs. Family is huge where you're from. In more western societies, people couldn't give a damn less about the family. At least not nearly as much as where you're from. but family and honor matters to you where you're from. So I see your dilemma.

If you foresee this to be a huge problem and one that keeps you from being able to marry, then maybe you should consider ending it now before it gets even harder.

Good luck.

YouWish agony auntWho are you, Mister Darcy???

She is not her family. She has the right to aspire to be better than her raising, and if you prejudice her based on the action of others, what does that make you?

You should have asked these questions a year and a half ago before you became sexual, before you professed love to her. Now it just seems like a manufactured excuse to break up with her.

Intrigued3000 agony auntIf you can't handle what other people say or think of you, then break up with her. Going against the norm and living your life by your own code of ethics require strength and chutzpah (courage). If you know you can't handle it, then leave this girl to find a man who can.

Hi,

First off your dating the girl not her family.. You can't hold her responsible for what her family does or her family's repuation..you liked this girl that's why you are in a relationship with her so its pretty obvious she's a nice person and treats you well..

Breaking up with her cuz of her family's repuation is an awful thing to do,its wrong on your part..don't judge her based on her family..

But its sad ur thinking of leaving her you should stand by her thru tough times! You like her and that's it..

Don't let all this come in the way
