Default My family doesn't understand...

We have been together since 2004. He has been in prison since 2008. Nobody understands our feelings for eachother. We have had our ups and downs but...he is my heart and I am his. People that I THOUGHT were supporting me are now saying "get over it" or "move on" also, "you can do better"

He is my one and only! I hate that they think they know what's "best" for me...he is what's best for me. I love you Vinny! Anyone else feel this way?

I think anyone who has family knows that they wonder what the reason you stick with them is ,but it is your life.
My family just respects my decisions and allows me to make my own choices.They know that I have to live my life and if that includes someone they do not understand,so be it.I appreciate that,since he has been a part of my life for 25 years and will be till the day one of us dies,from the looks of it.Yes,we have had cooling off periods after his major f-ups,but then we always get over it and I still support and love him.
I just think you have to go into it knowing that though they may want to get it right in the worst way,life sometimes does not fit the fairy tale.I just say love them anyway.

Family and friends don't get it, i mean what kind of goodgirl would stay w a man that is locked up.
Well every one of us make mistakes, big or small. And as my husbands wife, well i choose to stick by his side reguardless of what anyone thinks or says, nobody i know is in or have been in my position. And until ur faced with it, family n friends will never really understand.

Very few people are likely to understand.

Why are people that once supporting you now saying these things? Did something happen?

My family doesnt like the fact that I am with my bf because of all the bullshit weve been through fightin while we were using and wreckin my cars(i was 16 when we started datin im 23 now) but they still hold a grudge against him, and I know he has changed and I love him and will stand by him no matter what they say, his family supports him and they are supportive of us being together. Just do what is best for you, hopefully they'll come around but if not oh well

No nothing "happened" I just needed to talk about it and the response wasnt what I expected.

I totally understand. My family doesnt know and will not know, because they would disown me if they knew. They especially dont agree with it because my mom is an attorney and im going into law and they thought i was stupid when i even first started talking to him, so i have given up trying to get them to understand!
