Of course it’s always up to the enabler that accepts the loser. Doesn’t mean the family and friends are wrong on a pragmatic level. Love is emotional so logic fails here.Love is truly a steep mountain to climb. .. I read from all of these haters, a lot of "what ifs", and a lack of sympathy. If she is happy with him, maybe she sees in him something you guys dont. Love is in the eyes of the beholder. Do you even knows what that means? It means that it takes two to make a successful partnership. Never mind what the family and friends say. If he can win her heart, that is all that matters, I'm afraid!
In my GF’s sisters case, they have been together so long the family feels as long as she is happy they are OK with it. That wasn’t always the case.
