Can a relationship work out if both people really love each other and are willing to put in a lot of effort to make it last EVEN IF the guy's friends don't really like the girl? Or will it be too problematic?

It's okay if you honestly don't think it can last, I won't get upset, I just wanna know before I get all too invested.

Thank you!

I once dated a guy whose friends absolutely hated me, and I hated them as well (previous drama). It was difficult for the relationship to work, but it did work for several years (it ended for other reasons). If you two really like each other, then that's all that matters. Just let him know that you're fine with him still hanging out with his friends, and that you don't want him to be put in the middle and have to choose between you or his friends. Hopefully, his friends can be just as mature and not try to get him to side with them. If it's possible, maybe talk to his friends and ask them why they don't like you. If it's not something you can't work out, tell them that you really care about him and you're fine with him still hanging out with them, but that you'd appreciate it if they didn't try to convince him to break up with you.
