Is it normal to love a homeless guy

OK. Where do I begin. It started a year a year ago. I him at a Bus hub, I was going to school and he was going to his sister's. He said one word-SMILE. That day i was jus feeling rotten, you know down and out. He was coming over to talk to me when his bus came so we went our seperate ways and we agreed to meet for 12 noon the following day.
I really returned but I thought i was stupid so I got on the bus and went to school.He later told me came back to look for me too. We met again two months later. he gave me his number. I was going out with somebody else at the time and he was a real pig. I thought it could not get worse so I called him. That was the first night I laughed so hard in a while.
we went a out a couple of times but he always made an excuse why i cant go to his home but he was always at mine till late in the evening. i started getting in trouble my dad thought i was disrespectful for me to be combing his hair at our house.
I ran away 3 time with with 2 of the times i came back home because we couldn't make rent. He lied about his age(he was 31 and he told me he was 27 and i was 22), where he was born and where he lived. I spoke to a counselor and she told me he just wanted to be accepted. he told me he had a daughter and about his family. he roughed me up a few times. he don't keep a steady job. I still love him. he is smart. He came from a good home so i don't know why he wants to live like that now hes trying to change but its so hard. everything just seems to be going wrong. Is this normal?

    Coming from another homeless man I'd have to say that he was scared when he lied. No one wants to admit that they are homeless. It's a hard life. The money you have you can't save and when you try to save something goes wrong and you need to spend it. It's a horrible cycle. Having someone in your life helps a lot. Someone to be your rock. A reason to try. I hope things work out for you two. Almost positive he has better values than anyone else you meet.

    no, he sounds like a loser who has you wrapped around his finger,

    he is homeless, he beats you, he has no job, and you said he comes from a good home so he obviously is a screw up,

    bu-bu-but i looove him!

    We can't control who we fall in love with. So I guess it's normal for you to feel the way you do, what isn't is the situation you are living in. You sound like a good, smart girl, so don't give yourself less than you deserve.

    But if you really wanna be with him, than you should talk to him and make him understand that he needs to change - like you said, everything seems to be going wrong - and that you are willing to help and support him on the process. If he loves you as much as you love him, he will try hard to make things right for you to be together.

    Just keep in mind that it won't be easy... But if you love each other, it's gonna be worth it.
