Although through out the time we have been together a lot of people have tried coming between us. We have always come out the other side stronger though. I have always been fine with his family. I have always got on with them, and them with me. Although lately it's not that simple... His dad makes hurtful comments towards me too. Telling me im ugly and that my boyfriend prefers people who are much prettier than me. For example, i rang my boyfriend one night to ask about an order we had made and his dad shouted he is out with another girl. This tears me apart. I hear my boyfriend stick up for me and stand by me. He tells his parents to leave me alone, and he always tells me he loves me infront of them.But now its upsetting me too much. And im uncertian of what to do. I dont understand why his dad is being so hurtful towards me. Reply to this Question

 I think it's time for your boyfriend to discuss this with his parents. If they continue to be so nasty, stay completely away from them. Does your boyfriend still live at home? If so maybe he needs to move out. Their behavior is too hurtful and you should not have to be subjected to it. Sounds like his Dad has a screw loose.

Everything is the way it used to be, yet his comments have changed to hateful and nasty. When im at his house, i keep myself to myself. I spoke when im spoken too, and always please and thank you. His dad has always told my mum im a nice polite girl. Yet now he tells me im ugly and my boyfriend is with other girls.
It hurts so much as i have only just learnt how to get over a eating disorder i had for many years. And my boyfriend helped me with this. I stopped eating because i was being called fat and ugly although i have never weighed more than 6 stone. It makes my mind spin, and i dont want to end up ill again because of hurtful comments.

You have no idea why all of a sudden they are being so hateful? Something must have happened to change their attitude so drastically. I'd sit down with your boyfriend and do some brainstorming. Maybe the two of you can figure all this out.
