If i get back with my ex how do i tell my family?

Question

I have an ex-boyfriend who i lived with for 2 yrs. and things got physical between us when we would argue which my family is aware of. Now we're both to blame for letting it get that far so we decided the best thing was to seperate. a year and a half has gone by and we have still kept in touch and i still want to be with him but i know my family will never accept or approve of him because of past behavior. Apart from all this he has always been a hard worker and good provider for my daughter and i despite us not being together and him not being her biological father. My family is a big part of my life and i don't know what i should do ...please help!

Answer 1

you mite be able to forgive and forget but your family and friends prally wont. your best bet is to be honest with them but always remember your family is normally right wether u want to admit it or not.

Answer 2

it might not be a good idea to go back to him because Abusive patterns don't just disappear. your family wont be happy no matter what way you tell them.

Answer 3

That is not a good idea. Why do you want to be in that kind of a situation? You both need therapy.
