+1 yHaha, I'm from a dysfunctional family. I was abused as a child and had to go to the hospital as a teenager because of depression and schizophrenia (I started developing schizophrenia after awful abuse one time - I'm not naturally crazy lol).
My boyfriend was adopted, and his parents aren't the most loving people.
It makes it hard when you see someone suffer, but in a relationship, you're there to support the person. Just because you've come from a harsh past doesn't mean you can't pave the way for the future to become something beautiful.12 Reply

+1 yI tried it and it had been a huge factor of how my ex and I's relationship was tourn apart besides our own issues. Our immediate family did not get along whatsoever and I mostly took it to heart. I knew it wasn't going to work from that point on.

People out here saying “no”. I come from a bad childhood... it has taught me many things, and I’ve come out a better person than many who have an average life. So, take your opinion and shove it😘

Depends what you mean, mentally dysfunctional? Then yeah, if the person doesn't because of that then he's scared of you're gene's or just an asshole, if y'all fight a lot then y'all need to sit the fuck down and talk shit out like a family, it shouldn't be hard to get along.

Opinion Owner+1 y@rahul_24 I see what you mean. She is pretty independent though. She has had some bad exs in the past and from what I know she does not have that much family around her mother and older relative. He mom is moving soon too. I think even if they don't accept me. We will still date.
Opinion Owner+1 y@rahul_24 OK I will. Thank you for the heads up. Sound kinda what my girl has gone through.
Opinion Owner+1 y@rahul_24 I will.
