Hey there mylotters I was just wondering if you moved away from where you lived and there was a friend that none of your family wanted you to talk to or have any contact with would you still stay in contact with them no matter what your family and other friends thought of you being friends still after your friends and family meeting them?.

hardly, when i moved aboard when i was quite young we dont have the technologies as we have today you know, all those cellphones, internet and blogs and so on. The only medium we were using was mailing address, and that stopped when one moved to a new address and the other one was not informed

I would still stay in contact with them and given time it would show if they were a good friend or not as to whether they stayed in contact with me! It takes more than one person to keep a friendship alive. I've moved away from several places and you realise just how many friends you have actually made there, they will keep in contact for a while and then stop. Sorry I'm waffling, anyway what I'm trying to say is yes I'd keep in contact with them after all you can choose your friends but not your family and most times when parents tell children not to be friends with someone the child rebels and is friends with that person to spite the parents! Anyway happy mylotting x

Yes if that person is my friend i would still keep in contact with them. Who are they to decide who i am to be friends with. But if they raise good points that the person is a bad influence on me, then i will consider their thoughts. But if he or she is a wonderful person then there is no way I'm not going to keep in contact with them.

My family doesn't choose my friends. Although I value their opinions, I have a right to choose my own friends. At times, they can see things in people that I can't and they may advise me that I shouldn't spend so much time with that person but if you're an adult you have the right to pick your own friends.

well, in my situation i have been asked and warned by my relatives and close friends of mine to the person that they knew that would jus cause a problem and just playing around with me. but they knew that as long as i have not proven it yet with myself that he/she is like that i wont do that. no matter how they warned me i would still continue seeing or talking to the person as long as his not soing anything wrong to me.

Hey there thank you for your responds Ya at first meeting as soon as my mum and auntie walked in to this person I am meanings house they felt a bad vibe so got out with me as quick as they could a.

That's a very specific question - are you speaking from experience? I suppose you'd have to think about the reason why your family didn't like this person - sometimes we can overlook peoples flaws because we don't want to see them and get hurt. Though generally I would say that it;s best to go with your own intincts and not those of your family. If you wanted to keep in touch with this person then your family have no right to condemn you for that, it'd be your choice entirely.

Hey there thank you very much for your responds.It is a good think as when my mother and step Auntie came to get me from this persons place my mum only had to walk as far as the doorstep and my step Aunties first impression was that she wanted to help get me out there and then.

I won't be stopped contacting with some friends just bcoz of my family's suggestion or warning. That's because no one else knows your feeling of being friend with the one. If you think that's right then go.

If they were my friend I wouldnt care what anyone else said or thought about them, I would stay friends with them and keep contact with them. I would never let my family or other friends choose my friends for me.. only I can do that.
