Why doesn't your family like him? Is it just blind prejudice? Sometimes families are just looking out for the best interests of someone they love, and sometimes they are just being judgmental.

Although family pressures can cause a lot of challenges, he's ultimately in a relationship with you, not your family. If things are good between you, that's the most important thing.
