kitty88 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years, almost 2 and a half. I love him dearly. But things are very difficult. His family despises me, we have a long-distance relationship, and he doesn't seem to wanna grow up. We were engaged for a brief period of time and I have never been happier. During the time we were engaged, we lived together and it seemed as though everything was ok. His family dealt with me, he was focused on success. We got into a huge fight tho, and ended up breaking up. Shortly after, we got back 2gether. Now his family hates me and he seems to not care about anything. I feel as though I'm ready to get married and have kids, but he's more into the idea of getting me pregnant and THEN getting married, maybe in a few years. I'm not a very healthy girl and as a result, doctors expect a shorter life expactancy for me. I'm considering giving up on my boyfriend no matter how much it kills me. He's been good to me when I'm sick but I think it'll be like I'm freeing him if I break up with him. I want to do these things before I get worse. What do you think? Link to post Share on other sites
Reckless Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 We are none of us sure how long we can expect to live. All the more reason to not waste time If marriage and a family (in that order) are important to you then you have to look for someone that shares your goals. Link to post Share on other sites

It's hard to give advice on just one post... we don,t know much of your situation and not much from 'the other side' but from what I read here... I would say go with your 'little inner voice', I always go with my gut feeling. You know better what's good for you and what YOU really want so don't compromise in the name of 'love'...
