Relationship turned family against girlfriend

down the line, she’d break her fiancé’s heart because the relationship wasn’t right. I’m hoping that in time her family will recognise that it was best to end that relationship when she did instead of dragging it out.

I get lots of letters from people who have made huge decisions to please their family, including getting married to the wrong person, and now they’re trying to figure out what to do about it.

I think you should focus on enjoying your relationship and be happy that you’ve met someone who loves you enough to stand up for you, despite lots of opposition.

But if at any stage she needs your help to reconcile with her family, then you should be there for her.

Hopefully, once everyone has calmed down, they will be open to getting to know you and be more supportive of their daughter.

They won’t have anything to do with her now
