    This past month has been absolute hell!!
    My parents read my journal, and made me break up with my boyfriend and they said it's because we lied to them and his parents lied and it's this big long story.
    They've threatened to take away everything from me and told me that I have to move on. But I love him so much and It's hard. We still see each other every day at school and we're so in love.
    I don't know what to do. Can we still be together with my parents being psycho freaks like this?
    Or do I really have to move on and continue down a long road of depression.
    I'm only 16 so I can't move out or anything.
    But things are really bad and I need some help. I love him, he loves me, we need to be together. So if someone has an answer to my problem, please help me.

    why exactly do your parents think that you lied to them??


    try to sit them down, and explain to them that you love this guy and want to be with him... dont get all upset and throw a tantrum. try and be an adult and discuss the problem rationally. perhaps you can come to a compromise??

    i went through a similar thing recently. my dad wanted me to break up with this guy n was aways complainin and everything, but the first time we had problems n stuff, my dad did everything he could to keep us together. it was weird. now we've broken up n i think dad's accepted it. nt sure how he feels but hey...

    parents can be really weird sometimes, and can do irrational things when they think they may be losing their kids... just explain to them your side of the story...

    1) LOVE is a strong word

    2) don't lie to your parents - ever

    3) follow your parents rules while in their house - it's called respect, you're gonna want it when you have your own kids some day

    4) secret relationships almost always fail

    5) you can always go back to friends status for now
    5b) if you guys relaly care about each other that much you can both stay out of serious relationships
    5c) I recommend you do not do that though

    6) when you earn your parent's trust and respect back, make sure you discuss how low it was for them to read your journal
    6b) forgive them right after :)
