Who is telling the truth? My family or my boyfriend and classmates?

Who is telling the truth? My family or my boyfriend and classmates?
How could your family know how your boyfriend feels?! It's impossible for them to make that conjecture. They obviously don't like him, which is something completely different to consider, but they have no right to say that he's using you or that he doesn't love you.
Reply:You left out so many important details. By answering we would be guessing and its a 50/50 chance.
Reply:go on some group dates with ur friends, and ask them what they think of him once they really get to kow him
Reply:go with ur family...friends and boyfriends come and go but family is always there
Reply:u let famioly and classmates to decide for u?
Reply:Well, you have to look at the whole picture: Does anyone have anything to gain/lose by you two being together/not being together? And who are the better judges of character? Usually, it'll be someone who is older, with more life experience (i.e. your parents). Usually. A lot of high school kids put importance on looks, popularity, etc. So maybe their idea of what makes "great" person is immature. But I don't know your family or your friends, so I couldn't say. Only you know. I wish you the best of luck! :-)
Reply:your family is paranoid
Reply:u need to give more info..as in how long u been with ur boyfriend.. and why is it that ur family dont approve of him.. is it a hunch .. or something they have seen...
Reply:oh, haha! my family always said that about me and ex.. like 'ew why do you like him? he's so ugly' blah, blah, blah. always making fun of him. your family is just teasing. don't take it to the extreme.
Reply:well it depends on how well your parents know him.


i am guessing your classmates know him better than your parents.


but, parents do have a deeper insite on things





ask yourself-





have they met him?


how long did they know him for?


what don't they like about him?


what do the think of him?


do i agree even somewhat?
Reply:Well, you did say your family barely know him, but then again, older people have more experience and often have grown to be better judges of character.


But... you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover. At this stage, I'd go with your classmates, who know him. BUT ... Maybe your family need to take some time to get to know him better? Then you could ask them for their honest opinion.
Reply:Maybe your family is saying that because they don't want you to get into a relationship yet. Find out for your self but don't be love blind.
