I have an awesome boyfriend and we're totally good together blah blah blah but his family is goin through a rough time with money and he keeps mentioning it and it makes me feel akward cuz he's always like ya we're poor right now and we haven't bought groceries in like 3 weeks and stuff like that and I feel akward when he says it...is there anything I can do ? Without making him mad or anything.

I'm not sure what you mean by feeling awkward. The only thing you can do is be there for him. He trusts you enough to talk about situations at home that would, in some cases, be embarassing/uncomfortable for him. So be glad you have the kind of relationship where he can come to you to talk about his problems. Try inviting him over for dinner a couple times a week. Or if you have any extra money, buy him a few groceries. It doesn't have to be a lot, but if you made an attempt to help out, I'm sure he'd really appreciate it!

Whever he mentions his familys money troubles either:
-remind him that you'll always care about him no matter how much money he has
-remind him that youll always be there for him in his times of need.
-give hiim a huge hug
-assure him that everything will get better eventually
DONT try and change the subject because he will notice that and may start to get pissed and think you don't care enough to talk about it.

Aw. I feel bad for him.
I don't really know what you could say to him, but maybe invite him over for a lot of dinners so he can eat? Be like, "Baby. I'm so sorry, I know it'll be okay." Cause there isn't really much you can do. I mean it's not like you can give them $1000, but if you could I'm sure you would. Just try and comfort him and be nice about it.
