what would be your decision
Yeah they're definitely equal. Lol, I get jealous of my big bro's girlfriend sometimes though, it's like, "nooooo, you're stealing him!"

I guess it depends if you get on well with your family or not and also if you have a family with your lover because that may then take on more importance.

You can't pick your parents, but you can pick your friends.

I think it is completely based on your personal situation, whether you indeed like your family. Some people have a special bond with parents that will always be there, others don't. The person you really fall in love with though, and the one who you want to spend the rest of your life with, in my opinion, is the one person you truly love.
you mean i cant have both? :frown:
more or less equal to me

Errm, then who is the present?
Thats a hard question... As said above they are totally different types of love. On one side your family will always be there for you no matter what and always support you in your troubles and hardships whereas your lover is same as well but the difference with your lover is that you spend your whole life with him/her. In my point of view they both equal i wouldnt see my lover as more superior then my family and vice versa.

i dono its a saying :biggrin:
Depends on the situation, i.e. my brother (white) has started a relationship with a girl (Asian) and her family just found out. They've made her choose between him and her family, and she's chosen him. I'm sure if she had to choose for some other reason (so her parents weren't forcing her to) then the choice would be much harder.

I sometimes think about who I would choose if I had to but I've never been able to come up with an answer. To be honest the idea of having to choose if one of the worst things.

Unreasonable bastards. We are meant to accept "them" into our culture, yet they can't even date one of us. STUPID!

Pretty fly for a white guy :wink:
