If your parents told you that you couldn't be with the guy you loved, would you stick with him anyway?

Question

I have been on & off with a guy for almost three years now. We started dating my senior year of high school & have been through quite a bit. My parents do not like him at all & told me I couldn't be with him. At one point in this relationship I saw him behind their backs & when they found out they threatened to kick me out of the house but did not do so. (I still love at home.) I love this guy very much & I do not want to lose him but I also do not want to lose my parents. I am 20 years old & I believe I need to make my own decisions.

Answer

When you live under your parents roof you listen to them no matter how old you are!

Answer

They probably have a good reason for not liking him. I don't think we're informed enough to pass judgement.

Answer

Ha!! My hubby's parents told him to break up with me and here we are strong bond and ttc some parents don't know best only you can know what's best for you ❤️

Answer

My parents didn't like him, I didn't listen and I got pregnant. Parents are not stupid. They've been there, done that and if they're telling you something it's not because they want to ruin your life or be the evil
​Parents, it's because they love you, they care about you and they have probably had to learn the same lesson they're teaching. If I woulda listened to them I would have made better choices, but because I didn't I got my beautiful daughter.

Answer

I didn't listen to my parents and I screwed up big time. I wasted like 6 years of my life from 14 to 20 on n off with that loser. The only thing I got was my beautiful son. Looking back I was so young I wish I listened to my mom and ditched him. The hole thing was a nightmare besides the part with my son. And he turned out to be shitty dad too surprise surprise.

Answer

ya I did that and all it did was cause problems between me and at that time my boyfriend . my parents did not like him at all he was to cocky attitude and  he thinks he knew everything kind of attitude . he was a Persian Jew and my parents hated him with past ion

Answer

If you live at your parents house you have to respect their rules. So if you don't like it move out. Been there done that. I moved out because  I stayed with him. Turns out that I didn't love him.

Answer

Yes if you want to date him then move out. Then you can do whatever you want. I moved out when I graduated at 18. I'm now 24 married with a wonderful house. But for 6 years I've been making my own decisions.
