me and my boyfriend well he is a couple years older than me and my parent don't really approve of him at all but they have never met him hes just said hi when were on the phone with each other well lately I've been trying to get closer to god and it says that there are thing you do when your married there are things you do when your friends and things to do when your in a relationship and i told him that i wanted to fill out a list with him and you could tell in his voice he was sad ''he proposed to me with a big banner saying Athena with my last name and middle name in worst bubble handwriting I've ever seen but it was so cute but we consider me and him as already married but were just engaged i told him were not technically married and he hung up and said its OK i get it i get it i think he was crying but hes always to proud to admit it i said until we get married we don't get the benefits of being married i was sad and so was he but it was all for god''so we filled it out and i asked him to not bad sad please and he said i'm not sad as long as i get to still tell you i love you then i don't need anything else but then we were talking about lesbians and gays and we got into an argument because i want to spend the rest of my life with this man and when we have kids i don't want him to tell my kids that its OK to be gay because to tell you the truth having a gay son is not what i long for so i think that if i cant agree with him on something as important as that i don't want to have kids with him i don't know if i'm being selfish i don't know if i should look past this or do something else i just need help :(

You're are engaged to be married to your BF. If you're totally in love with him then you are accepting him for who/what he is. You state your parents don't like him, but have never met him. Ask yourself why, because he just may not be good enough their eyes or they sense instinctively that his beliefs will clash with theirs. (and obviously yours) Your BF and yourself shouldn't argue about issues, rather you should respect each others views and if you're going down the path of marriage, you need to be compatible not only with life's outlook but with the very need to accept each others views maturely and without arguing...regardless of what the subject is. If you can't do this now before marriage, then you won't be able to do it after marriage.
