Basically what happened was, 7 months ago, my boyfriend of four years and I broke up, because I moved and that caused a lot of stress on our relationship.

After months of talking, discussing and growing up, we have finally come to the conclusion that we want one more go. This time, giving it 110%, and pushing through.

The only problem is, due to previous infidelity on his part (3 years ago) my family dislike him. My sister even went as far to tell me that she would never speak to him, and if I was to marry him, she wouldn't ever come to my wedding. What they do not understand is, he has changed. I know that like stupid, cliche ********, and maybe it is, but I am under the impression that he is a different person than he was 7 months ago. I won't be putting up with any crap, and he knows that, and still wants to try again.

I guess the question I am asking, how do I tell my family that he and I are soon to be dating again? I'm 20, and I know it's my life, but I still feel as though I should tell them and stop the lies.

(I know, judge me if you must. I know if I get hurt again, it is my fault, and I won't be asking for sympathy.)
