A female United States age 30-35, *adyE101 writes:

Okay well ive been with my boyfriend now for about 3 years. Ive been through abusive relationships since the 7th grade i am now 19 years old ad i have found true love. Ive never felt this way about someone a i do him, the problem is my family didn't know about my past relationships or about the things i was forced to do. You see i live in Brooklyn directly in the hood, even though my mom brought us up to be followers of the lord somehow i got away from that. My boyfriend is 21 years old and he just finished high school i met him in high school we where best friends before we started dating. He treats me like a princess. My family found out about him in a letter i wrote my mother when i was going away for three days, y mom didnt believe the letter i wrote so she went to the school to find out what was going on with me, my guidance counselor told my family about my relationship with him , now my mom hates me and him, it got so bad that i dropped out of college because i was failing. The other day my boyfriend asked me to marry him and i said yes. My question is did i do the right thing, should i marry him or stay with my family?

aunt honesty agony auntI think the reason that your mother was so angry and annoyed at you was because you chose to hide this from her and be secretive. It is always a bad move, because she probably feels now like she does not know you at all, her own daughter and she cannot trust you. Sit down and talk to her and tell her how you feel. Tell her about the marriage proposal and also remind her how important she is to you in your life and that you are sorry for not telling her yourself and that you want to work on rebuilding the trust with her.
