I'm new to this forum and I got my problems but I had to chime in here on the simple fact that regardless of what situation your boyfriend is in with his side of the family, your mate is supposed to be your best friend. It's not uncommon to have feelings of being lonely in a relationship once in awhile but if this is an ongoing issue maybe your not meant to be together. It's like an oximoron.. Relationship=lonely. Just my 2cents
