Thanks you guys! Things are actually going really well (1000x better than last time we went out). I am much more confident and since I had a ton of guys who liked me before I said yes people can't even use the excuse "oh you settled". I hold his hand and kiss him proudly because he is mine and regardless of what the hell they say I know that I got the perfect guy. <3

As far as the critism that I do get, I basically followed The Man and XX Master's advice. I haven't let their cruel comments just fly by, I actually let them hit and then address them. If they continue then I basically just tell them oh well, and let them know that they better shut up and get used to it because we are staying together and nothing they cn ever say is going to change that. (in a nice way! haha)

Thanks for all of your advice guys. Mom knows the truth and I stood up for us and told her I wasn't going to break up with him. Surprisingly, she didn't freak out. He is coming to dinner Wednesday. (hopefully!)

Thanks again you guys. I really needed that bit of support to help me get the courage to stand up for us and I'm so glad I did. You're right, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks if we really do care about each other. <3
