Resolved Question

I dated my one ex when I was a young girl, as previously mentioned. Anyways another one I dated when I was 17, I know I really cared because when we fought or got into arguments it would tear me apart to be away from him. When dating this huge jerk from college, I was hanging out with this ex and he made me laugh. Everything I was going through felt okay. I felt like eventually I'd be fine and when I was with him, he kept telling me how beautiful and sweet I was. I laughed a lot and let go of my fears. I keep thinking about him and he wants to see me, but my parents don't approve of him. My dad gets really angry at me for seeing him, but I still care a lot about him. His family loves me and his little brother calls me "big sis" even though he has dated other girls after me. His mom and her gf always ask me to come by and chat. My parents don't like him because he's not in college, but so what? Should I see him anyways?

Only 2 guys out of how many billion? Fact: You're young and have a lot of life ahead of you. You're stuck with your parents for the rest of your (or theirs) life. Your parents obviously want the best for you and may or may not have sime insight or life experience that have given them cause for concern. The reasons you give for liking this guy will fit a lot of guys down the road. Tread softly on this one but ultimately do what makes you happy. If your parents approval is important to you, that may help you make your decision. If it isn't, then it's your call.
