      But that would have killed TPD. This one was for a reason - see we can be nice over here!

        I don't think you are doomed, per se. However, I'm pretty sure that your relationship can't continue they way it is. I think that either you need to take him to Ireland, throw the boy in at the deep end and see if he survives, or perhaps call it a day. If your sister is telling you (and the rest of the family) that he's not good enough for you, then if you want him to stick around, then you need to show him that (a) he is good enough; and (b) you want him to be involved with your familty more. That's the only way you'll convince him that he means something to you.

        If he's not keen on that idea, then you are probably best off out of it all, to be honest. My brother-in-law gave my sister an ultimatum - she could either see him, or see my dad. When she said she couldn't make that choice, he threatened to walk out. Luckily it all calmed down, but still - it's not a situation you want to find yourself in. That said, some friends of mine her parents can't stand him and his parents can't stand her, but they survive some how.

        The fact that he sounded jealous about your dress etc. makes it look like he's still very interested in you (why else would he be so "protective"?) so maybe there's a glimmer there. I think that if you show him that not everyone in your family thinks he's not good enough for you / you don't care what they think, then that can lead to happiness.

        Whatever happens, you'll be OK - I'm sure of that. You've always got the weirdos on CUK to talk to about all this!!

            There's no precedent - this was a one-off to be nice to CM. I could have deleted yesterday, to move me back to 20000, but that would spoil the spirit of the thread.

            My breath will be sufficiently bated for the New Year when I get back from my holiday exile...

                      Are you gay Faqqer? You are talking like a chick in this thread.

                      Its ok to be gay, I have recently discovered that you can be gay and fancy chicks and not be attracted to males.

                      oh.. I popped my test delete cherry.
