Feeling lonely...

[deepdarkworld]

Tomorrow me and my SO were supposed to meet for the very first time, but we pushed it back to next Saturday because we both were suck yesterday. Now he's saying he can't come at all because his dad wants to contact my parents to tell them that he's coming. The problem is, is my parents don't know about him yet..and I can't tell them because I met him on a chat site..and they disapprove of that very much. And if this continues to be the case, I won't get to meet him for another year. So last night, I was feeling very alone. My SO started getting very sick today, so his mom took him to the ER. Turns out, he has meningitis. This makes me feel even more lonely because I wish I could be right by his side, helping him get better.
Any advice? Thank you all in advance!

Unless you tell your parents, I don't think much will change.

Tell your parents about him and invite them to meet him with you for that first meeting to help alleviate their fears.

I agree, with snow_girl. I too, think that telling your parents will be a good idea. Just try to get them to understand as much as you can, and maybe let them meet him as well since that might ease their mind a little. Either way, good luck, and if you need anything feel free to message me or something anytime. =)

Agree with this 100% .

I agree with this totally! You shouldn't keep secrets or hide things, it just makes things more difficult and stressful.

I agree with everyone here..

Nothing will more forward if you don't tell your parents.

I met my SO over a game and It was very hard of me to tell my father, I can't talk to my father much.
So instead I wrote my dad a note, Basically saying I was planning to get serious with him and my dad just asked why are you scared? It's your life now.

Please tell your parents help them understand tell them about them
show your SO on cam to your parents SHOW that he is real and not a fake..
Even telling your parents that he says hello. Get your parents involved slowly one toe at a time.
Your SO's father is just keeping a look out for his son and maybe yours will feel like this too.

Do what you choose to do, Only you can make the change right now.

Good luck and take care dear.

That's it!

I agree with everyone saying you need to tell your parents. The sooner the better.

Also, meningitis can be serious, I'm glad he's getting medical treatment. Don't be surprised if he's a bit less reachable than usual if he's battling that sickness.

Good luck!

You need to tell your parents about him, its the only way you're ever going to have a future together

[Kitten_mittens]

Tell your parents about him. They just want to protect you. I wish I would have told my parents about when I went to meet someone from a chat room.. Parents have a reason to be worried about it. Trust me.

I hope all goes well.

If you can't tell your parents' because of where you met him, you shouldn't have been on the site in the first place.

Disagree.
Parents are just as capable of making overly restrictive/over-protective rules for their kids as they are of making good ones. Are you telling us you never once did something your parents' wouldn't have allowed you to do?

I"m going to disagree as well. I've met people off of here, this isn't a bad place. People meet people on facebook, interest forums etc.

This. It's more and more common for people to meet online.

OP, I think you need to tell your parents as soon as your SO gets better. Maybe even have them there when you meet.
