Well, it can seem like a banality to you, but it's quite important for me so i will be glad for every answer. I broke up with my boyfriend after a year and half together. Everybody from my family has taken him like nearly a member of family! And now when it's gone i don' know what i should tell them! I can't say "we broke up", it's too hard...and then they would ask lots of questions, you know and I'm not so open to them that I wanna tell them everything. What would you say guys? Love xxx Edith
first of all, it's your business, you guys broke up for a reason, so I guess there's nothing else to do. Your family will be curious to know this, but you can't go telling your relationship problems, that's your problem, no one else's. Just tell them it didnt work out and well, you have broken up. any questions they may have you only decide whether to answer or not. It's your life.
the best thing to do is to just be honest....it saves alot of bother! just tell your family you broke up and that it was a mutual agreement. and if they dont like it tell them its your life and you should see who you WANT to see not who you think you SHOULD see! hope this is at all helpful love Ellie xxxxxxxxxx
ehm.. I think you don't have to be afraid of to tell them you broke up.. if they like your (ex)bf, they're probably very lovely parents, aren't they..? so i guess.. don't worry.. they'll understand..
Hi Maly, first of all: this is no banality. Relationships and the probs around them will keep you busy all your life. How do I know? Look at my age, I am a parent... What would I like to hear from you in case you were my daughter? A lie or the truth? See, your parents are some kind of resort for you, they care, they love you and they want you to feel good. It's so simple, just go and tell them. You'd be amazed how trivial your problem gets from that moment on. And even if they have questions (and they will!), so what? Tell them what part of the story YOU want to "publish", it will ease your mind and still keeps YOUR secrets. Your mother was a girl, too, and she knows how you feel, actually. And your father was dating, too, he knows how it feels when some girl broke up with him. Just for the fun of it: ask them to tell you stories of their time long ago... you'll find astounding parallels...
Blackie: haha really original idea! and what if they'll see him in..supermarket? just his ghost Yes, you are all right. It's my life and my choice... We still meet each other sometimes-just like friends... I'm afraid of their quetions... Hope they will take it ok and they won't take him like the bad one-when I'll say it was mutual agreement (and I can say it was). Thanx for your replies, it's nice to know there are people who care also of others' problems! Hugs to you all Edith
heheee, ok ok ok can I ask you, where are you from..? who knows, maybe we both are from the same town... I'm from Mladá Boleslav
