My ex-boyfriend and I have been talking to one another for the last 6 months and we were planning this week to see each other but I had to lie to my parents about where I was going. They found out and my mom says that I am 21 to make my on decision my dad cannot even look at me. My ex hurt me in the past by cheating on me but we got past that. My family thinks that I deserve better but you can't control who you love. They think that I am holding on to him because he was my first love. Its true he was my first love but I still love him. I am worried that if I still go and see him that my dad is not going to let me come back home. I don't know what to do. My family is very important to me but I want to be happy.

Hey buddy,

First of all and foremost, I truly believe that if your family is so close to you they will understand.... everything.

Having said that, My family are my best friends, in particular my bro and my Dad! We r best friends. Until I had an abortion I felt I could tell them anything. Knowing their beliefs of even becoming preg before planned I could not talk to them about this. However, somewher in my heart i know they would have accepted any decision I made, because they truly respect and love me as all fathers and brothers do.

Also, my first 'love' was an arsehole, but i truly believed i loved him. Everything he did to me i forgave. This happened for two years, all the while my entire family had warned me he was not right for me. Not untill at least 1 year later did I understand why. During this time I was more distant to my family then I have ever been, and I just wished I had listened to them in the first place.

All this information is very contradicting. But I just thought I could let you know of my experiences and some how it might help? I hope it has and I wish you all the best.

Regards
