The only thing I can say is to follow your heart. It will be very difficult, but everything will fall into place.

I wish you the best of luck.

hmm why doesnt your family like her have they said anything about her they didnt like , thats seems odd to me , if you love her then go with her but make sure she is the one for you , all i can say is ask your family why ?

WELL THAT IS A TOUGH ONE...FAMILY IS VERY IMPORTANT,BUT IF THEY CARED ABOUT YOU AS THEY SHOULD...THEY SHOULD WANT TO SEE YOU HAPPY AND IF WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY, IS BEING WITH HER...THEN THEY SHOULD BE BEHIND YOU ALL THE WAY...ONLY YOU CAN ANSWER THEY QUESTION FOR YOURSELF, NONE ELSE CAN TELL YOU WHAT TO DO...GOOD LUCK TO YOU IN WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE.

You should definately follow your heart. I wish I understood what kind of trouble she got into. Your family is probably just trying to protect you from being HURT. If family is important to you, I could understand that. Maybe they feel justified in not liking her. Ultimately it is your decision to make, your family should be there to guide you, NOT make the ultimate decision.

AHHHHHHH I remember when I met my ex none and I mean none of my family liked him I got mad and they got mad and they didn't want to speak to me so I didn't want to speak to them, but then they said ok when they found out I was not going to dump him. I found out they were absolutely right see love blinded me to his flaws, if i could have steps back and looked at our relationship thru clear eyes I would have seen it

thoughts to ponder

my family hasn't been wrong yet...if they disapprove, there's a good reason. see, they love me unconditionally...without the blinders from trying to get in my pants.

um...and in the end, they are more important to me than just about anything.

when you love someone, you want the best for them...you don't blindly support them.

Well family means sooo much so it would be hard to put that out of your mind for very long. Then again true love means just as much. Have you sat and talked to your family and let them know that she no longer has the issues that they are concerned with . Maybe they can see something that you cant. I wish so badly that i would have listened to my friends and family in a relationship that lasted way too long. Good luck and hang in there.

First of all, there has to be a reason your family don't like her. I can't beleive they just don't like her for no reason. you said she got in some trouble years ago, right???????? well, i'm not trying to get personal, but, unless she killed somebody on purpose, or something that terrible, her past should stay in her past. They shouldn't hold it against her. If you truly love her and feel like she's the one for you, then go for it. Good luck to you. Follow your heart.flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou

well ,my sister's husbands family didn't like her because she speaks her mind and stands up to his mother.also they wanted Tim to marry a hometown girl.They have been married nine years and his family is still ignorant and thy basically disowned him also.

my fathr's mother didn't like my mother.We lived with my grandparents while my dad was in vietmam and my grandmother made my mothers life a living hell to the point of a nervous breakdown.when my grandmother gave my dad a choice he chose his wife and kids.
Family isn't always right and sometimes you just need to take a chance.

hey bro you gotta follow your heart, your old enough to know your heart and know what can happen. If your family can't support you then do on your own, are you going to let them decide your future or will you do it.

Sometimes when we think we found our soulmate and love so intense we become blind to what is there hiding... and your family might see something you can't at the moment... it is good to follow your heart, but sometimes you got to use your head... maybe slow down and see why your family has concerns, get it out on the open... who knows? Your family might grow to see past her faults and previous bad choices... You might see that your family are over protective or whatever reasons and you might go out on a limb and disown them to love another....
Good Luck in whatever choice you make..........
