So I really need some advice, support, idk what about this dilemma I have about who is going where for Christmas. This past August I flew out to California and met my boyfriend's family for the first time and had a blast! They mentioned if I was coming back for Christmas which at the time I thought I was. Come to find out I NEED to take a class this winter to catch up with college which would probably start around Jan. 3rd and I go on break Dec. 21st. This means if I flew out there, I would be gone for Christmas and my family's Christmas party and come back home and have to go to school again.
I talked it over with Chris and he said he has no problem coming over my way for Christmas and it doesn't bother him that he is missing it with his family. I just feel so bad because I told his family I would be back and they were excited and now Chris told them I won't be able to. I feel selfish asking him to come over here and miss it with his family and I don't have to miss it with mine. I also feel terrible leaving my family and going over there if I decided to do that. I really have no idea what I should do to keep both families happy. I always have this fear that Chris' family is going to think I "took him away from them" and I NEVER want them to think that. Any advice would be very helpful because it really is starting to stress me out thinking about it.
