Parents don’t approve of us

so after my parents found out my bf got arrested from domestic violence, they’ve made it clear that they don’t want us to be together. my sister even said “i’ll not talk to you if you get back with him”

i get where their coming from, but i love him and he loves me. what happened that night honestly wasn’t even bad, and i felt as if i exaggerated. we want to be together but he thinks it’s best if he spend some time apart and work on ourselves because our relationship before wasn’t healthy. isn’t that a mature thing for my bf to say?
i guess today i found out that the charges against my bf won’t be charged. which is good. means he won’t go to jail and won’t be on probation. so we can still see each other. it just sucks though because most of my family knows about this and my friends don’t approve or like him. but i really want to be with him. we’re both going to therapy, separately of course. but do you think as time goes on we can go back to how things were? he didn’t mean what he did, i know it. and honestly if i just would’ve left like he said i had to, it wouldn’t of happened! i was being a stubborn bitch. and i know it’s not excuse for a man to hit a women, but like i don’t really care? he’s so scared about going to jail i know he wouldn’t do it again. that’s why he wanted me to go home in the first place, he didn’t want the cops to be called. but they said bc of our yelling. and i’m the stupid bitch who texted their sister about it, who told their mom. ugh. shouldn’t of even told the cops he did it. idk why i did! i was just mad and sad. any advice on how to get my family’s approval again? do you think it’s doomed forever? we really really do love each other. and he only wants the best for me. he’s never done anything like it before

    STOP SEEING THIS GUY. It's an unhealthy relationship. Everyone has told you this. Your family, your friends and strangers on the internet. Everyone. All the people. Listen to them. They're right.

    Stop seeing this piece of shit, abusive, loser guy. Continue to see your therapist.

    He is precisely the sort of guy who will eventually put you in the hospital, and convince you that it is your fault. There's nothing worth loving in him.

    You should be thanking God that your sister snitched on his crazy ass to your folks. The fact that you want to get back with him shows that you are in desperate need of professional help. Stay the Hell away from his crazy ass!

    IT'S COMPLETELY NORMAL FOR YOUR PARENTS TO NOT APPROVE OF THAT PIECE OF SHIT BASTARD!

        Humans beings are creatures of habit. If anything he will be worse next time. Everything this awful guy does to you gets progressively worse. He is not the guy for you.

            Why are you so desperate to be with someone who treats you like crap? He is a piece of human garbage! He always makes you jealous, convinced you that he needs an open relationship in order to be with you, and then you accept it when it clearly isn't what you want. He constantly tells you to leave his apartment, and then kicks you out without letting you get your stuff. He does drugs most likely, and is probably an alcoholic. This guy goes out clubbing with his loser friends, one of whom is old enough to be your dad, but somehow manages to be completely immature. The guy mooches off of his parents, treats you like a free maid, and free whore. Most normal women would find this behavior unacceptable, because it is unacceptable! The guy is a piece of shit!

            What you need to do is continue to go to therapy, and checkout Codependents Anonymous, or Al Anon.

            I appreciate you posting here, and sharing your story, but this guy is nothing, but bad news. You need to disconnect from him, and move on with your life.

            You need to just let go of this toxic relationship. If you ever want to be happy you need to detach from this selfish, immature, narcissistic abuser.

            • you’re right. the open relationship thing was kinda complicated and it’s not what he wanted. anyways, it’s just hard. i just want to be with him! i still love him and what he did to me didn’t even like hurt or bother me honestly. i went to see him today and he did say, “you need to get better” “we need to work on each other” and “you sent me to jail” to which i replied, “you sent yourself to jail” and he got mad and wanted me to leave and i did. then a couple hours later i get a message on facebook saying “look babe i love you, but you just need to be patient” ... because i wanted to like hookup with him and he said having sex wasn’t a good idea”

    How much money does he make? Can he take care of you? He sounds like a loser. I've never hit my wife before. The reason he hit you is very silly too. He sounds immature. His worst fear is going to jail or withdrawing from dope in jail? He's no good.

    • he doesn’t have a job. he’s a full time student so his mom gives him money. and no he’s been to jail a couple times before for like DUI and shoplifting.... he hates it and we’re taking a break rn to work on things. so it doesn’t happen again. he does say that “i sent him to jail” so idk. really confused

            Why not get a guy thats family has money and he has a career? You're gonna be a low rent paying mofo your whole life messing with those kind of dudes. He's the bottom of the barrel.
