Is running away at 34 years old to be with the man I love wrong?

My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years, and my dad absolutely hates him, (of course I live with my dad, since my Mom died last year) my question is we want to be together so much that we are thinking about moving far away..is this wrong to do?

Age 34 is more than sufficient to run away. It's called "moving out and being a grownup."

If you're 34, why are you so worried what your father thinks? You're an adult, start acting like one for crying out loud!!

This is kind of a loaded questions since at 34 you can't dictate "right and wrong" other by legal and personal moral standards. If you love him and you want to be together you can't call it wrong. Your dad loves you, and I bet he will come around after some time, and when he sees how happy you are.

No, I am 24 and doing it. Good luck! Your father must be treating you like a child.

if you are seriously asking this you need to grow up.

It's a shame that at 34 you still have to consider "running away" in order to live your own life. No, it isn't wrong. But it's a little immature. Stand up to your father, get out of his house, and be a big girl.

you are 34 and still living at home? If you had your own place it probably wouldn't matter


gailforce_wind
Come on you're 34. You should have been out of the house a long time ago. If, however, you are there caring for your father, and he needs you, it would be wrong to haul off just because he doesn't like this guy. Is this guy going to marry you or just shack up until something better comes along? Can he support himself and you, too? It doesn't really sound like it. Think this one through.

You're 34, and talking about running away? That's odd...also, you live with your father since your mother passed away--I assume he needs some kind of help...you'd just leave him high and dry?

What father doesn't hate the man that marries his daughter, this is par for the course.

You don't have to run away, that will make the problem worse.

Just do what you want with your own life, and if your friends and relatives don't accept it immediately, just have patience, and they will accept it in the long run.

My daughter is only 9, and I already hate future boyfriends.

But lets review:
1, your father is your only surviving parent.
2, you are 34
3, you are still living at home

so here it is
His home, his rules

You didn't say anything about your boyfriend, or why your dad hates him. Just as women have "Gay-dar" Men have "Slime-dar" Sit down and ask your dad why. He might have a point.

OH, your 34, find your own place. but running away is never the answer.

You left out your father's side of the story. This boyfriend is already married, isn't he. And he has no job and drinks too much. He will be running out on his wife with a small child, won't he?
He has no car, and no money, and he wants to run away to Las Vegas where he can earn a lot as a poker player, huh?
And now you are pregnant?

Your question is too easy to answer, there must be more to it!!!

At 34 you are old enough to make your own decisions...Hell I was married and divorced twice by 34!!!!
There are serious issues, be it on your part or your parent(s) doesn't matter, when you have to run from them to be happy within your own life.

GO!!!! life is so short..I am 50 and lost the love of my life. it goes so fast!!! Please be happy.

I think you need to ask yourself the question, are you willing to give up a happy relationship with your father in order to persue a relationship with this man? Is he worth possibly fracturing your fathers trust and love? You have been with this man for 2 years, but with your father since birth... so your father's opinion may be more accurate than you think. Try and think of the future before making a quick decision that could forever shake the relationship with your family.

Why not just tell your dad, he should understand and that way you can stay close for support for your dad. Why does he not like him, usually there is a reason why your dad would not like him.

Depends. The first thing to ask to yourself is: Am I ready? Could we afore to live on our own? Is he the man you want to spend the rest of your life with? Does he respect you? Will he take care of you? Does he loves you as much as you love him? If you answered yes to all of those questions then do it. My last question to you is: Why doesn't your father likes him?

No need to run away. you're an adult and he has to respect that.

I wouldnt exactly call it running away.. it makes you sound like a 13 year old.. but you shouldnt have to move far away.. just move out of ur dads.. like someone else said your old enough to make your own decisions..

Try explaining he situation to your father. Tell him your a grown woman and that it should be your decision. Maybe theres a reason your father doesn't like him. Don't move far away you;ll break his heart and since your mother passed away he'll be really lonely. He's the one that gave up so much to have you so think of both of you before you decide. I'd suggest you move in to a place maybe a few minutes away,
GOod Luck:)

Go for it because you are old enough to make your own decisions .

You're 34 and still living with your dad? I'd say, boyfriend or not, it's time to move out on your own.

At 34 years old you should grow up instead of running away like a little kid.

Tell your father what you want to do.....then do it.


youcandoit
No why would you have to runaway with this man. you are a grown woman. You shouldn't have to run anywhere. Why does your dad hate him think about it. Sometimes parents have an insight to these things and maybe theres a good reason for the hate. Sometimes we become blind to the person we think we love. If your dad truly has no reason to hate him. Marry him anyway have a wedding and invite your father if he comes good if not then his lost but he is your father and he will get over being mad at his little girl.

More power to you for getting away to find happiness!
Do what you're heart tells you! Remember your Dad had his happiness with you mom. Now it's your turn!!


misslepew
You should sit down with your dad and have a heart to heart. Explain to him how you feel about your boyfriend and while you respect his feelings you are grown and this is who you want to be with. You should also give him a chance to explain to you why he feels the way he does as long as he can do it in a calm reasonable way.

Why run anywhere? At 34 you are old enough to make all your own choices and deal with all the consequences.
