[quote=Anonymous]I am madly in love with my BF. He treats me well, just like a woman should be treated. Yes guys, he even opens up doors for me and all that. He is a great listener and very supportive of my needs, etc.

The problem is that EVERYONE I know thinks he is a loser and that I am setting myself up for heartbreak one day. The reason(s):

A. He doesn't have an established residency at this time. He stays at his friend's houses three to four days at a time and uses my address for his mailing needs.

B. He doesn't have a car so every time we see each other, I have to do all of the driving. He also asks me for rides around town when he runs out of bus or train fare.

C. He is having a tough time getting a full-time job. He currently mows lawns for people and on occasion performs domestic duties to make money. He is on USDA Food Stamps to pay for his food and the cash he uses for his other needs. He really would like a full-time job, thus allowing him to get his own place & vehicle, but he has 2 felonies on his record plus his father has a restraining order on him which prevents him from being even considered for work.

D. He had his parental rights terminated a few yrs back due to his excessive jail time and can no longer see his three kids.

He has been out for about 2.5 yrs and is slowly getting his life back together.
He really wants to get a job so he can support himself and hopefully get his parental rights reinstated again.

I know he has a tough road ahead, but I really want to help him reclaim his life again.
He just turned 29 last week and is serious about getting his shit together.

However, my friends and family don't think I should waste my time on him.
Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance? If everyone loses faith in him, he may just fall down again.

What can I do so everyone respects our relationship more?[/quote]
