We are always on the same page and we know where we want to go with each other. We have been doing long distance for the past four months and everything is great between us. The hardest thing has not been the distance but it's been my parents. The only bad thing about our relationship is my parents. From the start of our relationship they haven't liked her. Everything she tries, from sending them emails to communicating with them directly face to face nothing has worked. Every good quality about her is somehow turned around negatively on her. None of it makes any sense to me. They talk about her behind her back and continuously say how much they hate her knowing all along that I love her! They don't want me to be with her and believe that I'm becoming a bad person since I've been with her. Nothing has changed since I've been with her except they have changed. What am I suppose to do? It hurts me to here all these things about her and the worst part is that it's my family!! What do I do now? How do I get this to work and make it better?

I would sit them down, and tell them just how you feel! In a calm, level headed manner, tell them that they better get used to the idea, because she's not going anywhere!!!!
You're parents may be having difficulty accepting the fact that their son is growing up! Some Moms think No Girl is good enough for their "little boy!"
Tell them you don't want to hear anything negative about her anymore...
Good Luck!

But I have two things to say to that...One: they could be right, but you say that your girlfriend is just fantastic, so that's not it...Two: You shouldn't give a crap about what your parents say. Eventually they will come around, if not, who cares? They are not the dictators of your love life. YOU ARE. Continue dating her and if they start trying to prevent you from seeing her, maybe it's time you had a talk with them. If that doesn't work, tell them to buzz off. She's your girlfriend and you love her to bits, it's time your parents saw that.
