So, my boyfriend and I have been going out for nearly 2 years. We have quite a serious relationship, talked about marriage and so forth but my parents are threatening to not talk to me or ever deal with me. I know that if we ever got engaged or married, it would be after we both graduate college (in 3.5-4 years). Now, I don't know what to do. My parents are putting pressure on me to break up with him and to date around, but I love him so much. Not to mention, the issue is he is 1/2 armenian and 1/2 Italian.
Anyways, what would you guys do? Keep dating the love of your life? Or please your parents? Or any alternatives?

If you stay with him, your parents will eventually get over it.
Unless he is a douche of a person. In that case, you got problems sista.

I'd do a cost/benefit analysis before deciding. What do you gain out of that relationship and what do you lose because of it? What's worth more to you? It's as simple as that

if hes respectful with ur family and if u feel like there is no need for them to not accept him, then stay with him. thats if u truly love him. Cuz a lot of times, parents can be the bigger assholes..
goodluCK!

i agree with this person...if your parents are only hating on him because hes not full armenian, then do not break up with him - they will eventually come around...but if your parents are hating on him for a good reason, like hes a jerk and disrespectful to them, then that's a different story

do not ever date someone just to "please your parents"...you would seriously be making the biggest mistake of your life....this is the person you could potentially spend the rest of your life with, and don't base that decision on whether your parents are pleased or not...but if the guys a douche and your parents hate him for a reason other than him being half italian, then you might want to listen to them...but if hes an amazing guy, respectful, etc. and you really love him, then stay with him
