Why does his family not like you?

So much drama and you aren't even married yet. You may want to rethink your relationship with your boyfriend. It won't be any better after marriage. Also, making him choose between you and his family won't solve any problems either--only create new ones.

My daughter and her boyfriend recently solved a similar problem. My daughter got tired of the family drama at the boyfriend's house. She left and told her boyfriend to never call her again. She told me she couldn't envision herself playing a role in the ******* drama for the next 40+ years. You may want to ask yourself that question.

  • How long have you and bf been dating?
  • How long have you and bf been living together?
The argument was obviously a very SERIOUS one; sometimes apologizing isn't enough. Sometime people (his sister) need some time to PROCESS what happened, the apology, live with it for a while BEFORE they feel they can move on.

Depending on HOW LONG you and bf have been dating, it might bode POORLY for you that he is choosing his family OVER you. Just because he hasn't put a ring on your finger is no excuse; you two are LIVING TOGETHER! For all intents and purposes, you're ACTING MARRIED (joint finances, living together, having sex, sharing a bed...you've done EVERYTHING a married couple does EXCEPT say some 'magic words'.) He says you're "not his wife yet", but you two are surely sharing EVERY ASPECT of your life like a married couple!
