Dear Ophelia,
Love is a very beautiful thing in life and everyone should feel the wonderful feeling of love. It can be a hard subject to touch on at times because some people are just too sensitive. The key is just trying to figure out the way to go about with
Love. But don't get me wrong when your so full of beatitude your can get lost in the feeling of love. You begin to blind yourself from reality. And having your father and brother advising you that it might not be such a good idea probably is best. In there point of view they believe it is a quixotic relationship. But now if you choose to go against your family then a vendetta might occur.. Especially how your father and brother see the situations your prince is in they do not want you to get in a parlous relationship. Now to expound my opinion of all this your family's opinion should come into consideration. And if they see something that you might not, that is possibly not healthy for you well in the end you are going to need the volition to try and make the most reasonable decision. Maybe if you and the prince can coalesce abut things and be civil then there is nothing wrong with that either. But falling into a relation would be risky with his life style.
