Commentaries from friends and relatives

Wow, so much advice from relatives and friends! I just have to know how to sort it all out!! My cousin's advice I will definately take as she has both feet on the ground, raised 3 boys, and knows what she is talking about.

My parents still don't like my boyfriend. I am not sure how they think that I am manipulating this relationship, how they got the impression that I am leading, or any of the other things they come up with. I honestly think they see that we are a good match and they are afraid that they will lose control in my life.

My friends, well that is a mixture of advice. The latest advice I got was that this wouldn't last, that he would dump me and I should just move on. Wow, and she hasn't even met him! Guess that is what I get for talking with a girl who recently broke up with her boyfriend.

It all boils down to what I think. Do I think I am doing the right thing? Can I see myself with him 30 or more years from now? Am I happy with the way he treats me when he is in a bad mood? Well, hmmm, no one likes being with someone in a bad mood but everyone has them. Oh yes, does he have respect for me or will he treat me badly?

What do I think? I think I will listen to my heart.
