Is It Normal?

Lie about Love
I was wondering, is it normal to lie to your family and friends about someone you love?

About how wonderful he is, and how much he cares about me. He is my boyfriend and they do not like him.
@: Fruit01
Ok.. So you're trying to make him sound more wonderful and caring than he really is??

Not than he is, he is as wonderful as i say he is to them, but they don't see it. So sometimes i tell them things he has said to prove this to them even though he hasn't said these things. I don't need to prove to myself. I just want them to see he is wonderful as i cannot explain.
@: Fruit01
If he really is those things, then let him prove it to them himself. If he isn't then you'll be found out and you wouldn't want to going out with a tw@ anyway. Kapisch?!

They don't give him a chance to prove himself!
What kinds of things do they criticize him about? It could be that you are blinded by love and can't see some of the real negative things about him. On the other hand, maybe they are out of line. Is he different in some way from your family and what they expect your ideal boyfriend to be like - age, race, culture, religious differences? If so, they could also be blinded toward seeing any of his positives. Could be a mixture of both. In any case, you may need to, like a previous person said, let him prove it for himself. Take him to your house, let him interact with them, eventually they may warm up to him.

It's natural for families to be protective over their children/siblings. They don't want them to get hurt.

I see why you're doing it, but don't lie about him to them. Even if they're beeing really annoying about it, and won't give him a chance, it could be worst. They could be forbidding you to see him at all.

My parents hate my fiancee. I am happy, so, it doesn't matter.
