Caught between my family and my forbidden lover! What should I do?

Question - (30 September 2008) 5 Answers - (Newest, 1 October 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *alconear writes:

I met this guy ( lets call him Mr.A) nearly a year ago, he's a tough guy with piercings and tattoos but as i got to know him i realised he is quite sensitive and sweet. When i told my family about him they had their doubts but were happy that i was happy. One day a rumor spread that he had pushed a girl down some steps, i asked and he denied, everyone else didn't believe it either.

Somehow my family heard this rumor and forbidden me to ever see him again. My father in particular was looking out for my safety (my father was my best friend and i took his words to heart ) but i protested that i loved Mr.A. On March this year my father passed away and Mr.A was there to comfort me and soon we began dating, one day i ran away from home, caught a train and stayed at his house for the night.

My family were fuming when i returned and told me they had lost their trust and if i ever spoke to him again they would put me into care. A month or two later i began txting him again, i couldn't keep away and feel i can't live without him.

What happens if i get caught? I genuinely love him, and i don't want to make the decision to fight for him or to fight my family.

Please help...

P.S. He is 18 and I'm 15, but surely that can't be the problem?

thatgothgirl20 agony auntSweetie, pedophilia means being attracted to way younger people sexually, so you don't even have to be having sex. Look it up in a medical dictionary, but it will have certain age limits as to who is too young to be sexually attracted to that way (that is some peoples' def.) . I mean, you are not a little kid, you are a teen. I'm not calling him a pedophile though. I had a friend in college who was going out with a 16 year old. They are still together today, now that she is 18.

falconear is verified as being by the original poster of the question

falconear agony auntyes he has told me he will wait, and being 15 doesn't make him a pedophile unless we are engaged in sexual activity.

If you are running away from home and spending the night with him then it is no wonder they aren't keen on him.

You should be at school, he is an adult.

You shouldn't have this much drama in your life at your age. He should understand that and back off.

Good Luck!! xx
