In desperate need of help

Hello I have been seeing my partner for 2 years now. He proposed to me 6months ago I initially said yes and was happy. However my family were completely against the idea saying he wasn't good enough for me. I then went ahead and declined cancelling the engagement. This was a difficult time for me and my partner but we managed to get through it. However it was difficult when anything involved my family. My partner often said he felt uncomfortable around them and often had excuses to avoid events. He cancelled a meal with my parents half hour before we were meant to be there.I kept pushing for him to see them and he did go for a few drinks with them the weekend before Xmas. He was polite and spoke to them but was often on his mobile etc. however Christmas Day was a disaster. I was spending Xmas with my family and he with his however we said we would meet up after our meal to spend time with both sides of the family. I got to his sisters for 6pm he felt this was hurtful as Xmas was all about the children (his nephews etc) and their Xmas was over by then. We then after spending half hour at his sisters came to my folks house. We argued before going in and then he didn't speak to anyone saying he was hurt. He stormed out the house after an hour. We now are both hurt n both lost with what to do. I love him and I believe he loves me too. I dunno whether to give up or try to figure something out

Hello CHOCOLIC12 Firstly whose life is this yours or your parents. Secondly your old enough to make your own choices don't listen to your parents follow your heart hun. Thirdly sounds a bit like my man my parents don't like him cos he's always busy working and doesn't spend much time with me my mother deems him as my friend no my partner. My father asks how he is when him and i are together so he doesn't dislike the man but hasn't met him either. Your the only one that can really figure this out there are no real right or wrong answers with a situation like this you just need to be honest with yourself and ask yourself how much you love him and do you really wanna be with him 2 years isn't that long but if you guys wanna get married go for it.
