Your parents (insert best friends, sister etc…) are probably going to take your side if you are fighting with your partner.  That’s their job, unconditional love.  Is it reality based? How could it be? They are getting your point of viewdr strangelove – and you’re upset.  In fact, don’t take any non-professional relationship advice too literally.  (Yes this includes internet chat rooms).  I don’t mean stop reaching out for support from loved ones, but before you prove to everyone that your partner is the bad guy, make sure you throughly understand your role in getting the relationship here. What would his/her family say about you?

Exceptions? People advise with what they know, so if you want to emulate their relationships it probably is ok to listen up.
