If you had to choose between your family and God, which would you pick?
I don't know if it's the right choice or w/e, but I've always been very proud of my mother saying she'd choose me and my family over God. Really shows her love for us, you know? So anyway, if you had to have one or the other, which would you pick? And Atheists (or anyone else that this doesn't directly apply to), imagine you had to chose between your family and your life (or something of equal value). Thanks all :)
My boyfriend is making me choose between him and my family!?
Okay so my boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 years. I am 20 and he is 24. Our relationship has been an enormous roller coaster. From me not letting go of old friends, to him being very possessive over time. Lately every time I want to spend time with my family, he gets mad. I do not live at home, (I left to college) so when I come into town, he wants me to spend the night at his house where he lives with his parents, instead of visiting mine. When plans are made with my family (which he is included) he'll say he doesn't want to go because he doesn't really like them, or that it's boring. Time after time, I have given him what he wants, but the few times I go against what he wants, to be able to spend time with my family, he blows up on me and tells me it's my fault our relationship is the way it is because I always choose my family over him. Although I feel like I have to see my family at some point, they pay my school tuition and still take care of me when they can like for me to just constantly blow them off. I don't know what to do? I'm tired of getting hurt, crying, and feeling like I'm stuck in the middle.

I have to choose between my boyfriend and my family. What do I do?
This depends on the reason behind why you have to choose between your boyfriend and your family.Who is making you choose? Is there any chance that you won’t have to choose and there can be compromise?If your family does not like your boyfriend, but you are absolutely sure that he will be the person you spend your life with (and he treats you well), choose your boyfriend. Your family will come around if they truly care about you (and I’m sure they do). If you’re skeptical about spending your life with him, wait it out a little bit to get a better feeling on your future. Chances are, you’ll end up choosing your family in this case.Ultimately, you should have your family involved in your life whether you choose them or not. Family is supposed to be there for you through thick and thin. Suppose you choose to stay with the boyfriend (and he treats you well), your family will eventually see the value of your relationship and want to be a part of the experience with you.If your boyfriend doesn’t like your family, and he’s making you choose, choose your family. If he’s making you choose between your family and him, he’ll probably do the same for friends, coworkers, acquaintances, and every one else even remotely involved in your life. Having a boyfriend that puts you in this situation is not a good boyfriend. You should choose your family, and leave the boyfriend in your past.A situation like this, no matter who is making you choose, is very stressful, overwhelming, and slightly immature. There should be no reason for you to have to choose between your family and someone you love (unless you’re in harm’s way).Good luck choosing. Weigh out your options very carefully, and most importantly, try to compromise before making your choice. Even try compromising a 2nd and 3rd time before making a choice.
How should I choose between a boyfriend and my family?
Choose your family. Boyfriends come and go. Don’t make huge sacrifices for a boyfriend. Don’t give up your family, don’t give up a career or an education, don’t give up anything. Boyfriends are not worth that. There are other plenty of other boyfriends. If everyone you love thinks the boyfriend is no good, shed a tear and break it off.
