It' a matter of personal choice.  If he doesn't want ot be around his family there is no law that says he has to.  Just keep in contact with him the best that you can.

i think that the thing that makes a strong family is the trust that the family have for each other and the love for each other but also the family needs to know the lord because a family that prays together stay together.also the family just need time together and somrtimes they need time apart .

Losing a close relative takes considerable time for the person to grieve and heal. Make sure she knows that you're there for her if she would like to talk, and call her or visit every so often ( twice a week sounds good ), just so she knows you're still her friend. Practice being a good listener, and never, ever tell her to "snap out of it." People grieve and heal at their own rates and cannot rush the process.

I don't think you can not hurt her. Be honest. Listen to what she has to say. Offer her support. Be there for her. Do not patronize her and not get to the point though. There is nothing that can ease the blow of losing a loved one.

family togetherness is good and missing in most families these days due to two working parents and children with busy social lives outside of school. if more familes spent time together to talk over family issues or issues that were bothering them the world would be a better place.

If you are willing to give your life away for another person because you care so much for them, it's true love. If you are not willing to sacrifice yourself for this person then it's not true love. True love for a non-relative can only come through years of living and learning about that person. Most mothers have instinctive love for their offspring and would not think twice about sacrificing themselves for their child. That's true love.

Oh yeah. A family is one of the things you have that others unfortunately don't, so cherish it. You never know, you might need them someday.

its a good way to keep in touch with friends, family, and coworkers. I even became closer to some people that way, because we were able to keep up on each others lives more.

They are people that will always be there for you no matter if you have been in troubile several times in your life or been the best person that you can be in your life. They will always love forever. I just had a beautiful baby boy back on June 9, 2006 with a wonderful man that I'm going to marry soon. My son, fiance`,  mom, dad, both of my sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. I love them all to death. I would not know what I would do without any of them in my life. I'd go crazy without them. That's what my family means to me!!

No, I love my own family and would just like to have a very close relationship with these people that you love very much.  I think it would be great to have two sets of people (parent figures) that you love and respect so much.  It could be nothing but great!

If your family is insisting that you cut all ties with this person there must be a good reason. It is very difficult to watch someone that you have watched grow and taught to be a strong and independent individual be crushed by a co dependent relationship. your family only wants the whats best for you. And although you may not see it at the moment, there will come a time when you realize they are only trying to save you from pain and heartache. They must be seeing more bad than good to be the outcome. Think about it, is this person really worth you possibly ruining a bright and happy future with a friend or significant other that won't give you heartache? Just remember not only is it hurting you but it is also hurting the people who love you the most, your family.

doing that to yourself is  not the answer. do you want your family to go through what your bf's family just did. i also lost someone close to me recently (younger brother) and know what it feels like to lose someone that you love very much. hurting yourself will not bring them back, but try and remember all the good things and times that you had with them and cherish them. Dont you think that he would be upset with you if you done something like that to harm yourself. even though he is not here with you he is still in your heart and sometimes that is closer than if he were still here. no one can take away his memory of him from you. Hold your head up and make him proud that he had the best girl by his side while he was here.

Sometimes you just have to swallow your differences to make others happy.  Especially is that other is your family. \n\nI don't think it's too much to ask to share in your family happiness.

What matters is what YOU do, not what they do. You cannot get inside someone else's head, and often people who are behaving badly are suffering in some way that we can't see. If you are compassionate, even when it seems unwarranted, you may find that the person in question is so surprised by the kindness that they are decent back, and if they aren't, well YOU have done your best, which is always the right thing to do.
