DEAR AMY » I was
adopted within my
family when I was a
little girl. My grandpar-
ents on my father’s side
forced my father’s sister
to adopt me. She raised
me, and though we were
never close when I was
a kid, in recent years,
we’ve developed a better
relationship.

Ask Amy major deci-
sion and it’s
not what they envision
for me, they guilt-trip
me, mentioning how they
saved me from the life I
could’ve had.
I was divorced a
few years ago and was
a single mom, and not
once did I ask for finan-
cial help from them.
However, when I cannot
afford an extravagant
gift for them, I never hear
the end of it. According
to my grandmother, how
much I spend shows how
much respect I have for
them.
I’ve been dating a
wonderful man for the
last two years and we’re
ready to be married. I’ve
tried to ask for my fam-
ily’s blessing, but they do
not like him because he’s
not the same ethnicity as
I am.
They also think he’s
cheap. To me money is
not the most important
thing, and this man treats
me and my son the way
we should be treated.
This has caused a huge
rift between me and my
family.
I am so hurt. Now they
are forcing me to choose
between pursuing a new
life or them. How can
I move on with my life,
