Ok so my parents hate my relationship, banned me from travelling to see him, and are constantly saying our relationship is nothing more than a penpal situation. Today I tried to convince my mom that we were an actual couple, and that unless you're in a LDR, you will never understand the connection between two people that is WAY beyond just phyiscal.
Now I'm only 16, which as much as I hate to admit it, is young to be in a serious commitment such as an LDR, but I feel like I'm mature enough to make my own decisions in relation to my heart.
The problem I'm currently facing is that, my parents are placing doubt in my mind. After my talk with my mom which ended as, 'You barely saw eachother during the summer, and it's because he was making excuses as to not meet up with you!' My SO and I only live a train ride away, so meeting up is, although sometimes rare, a very possible option. We didn't meet up during the summer because of things happening on his part. Family things, and housework related problems and also money problems. I trust in my SO, and I find it hard to believe that if he didn't want me, he'd still be here.
My mom basically said to me that he's lying and that I shouldn't have so much trust in this guy who probably just doesn't care.
I'm starting to believe her. I don't want to think that he would lie to get out of meeting up with me, but sometimes I just wonder. What if he was...? I know doubt is always a problem between couples, so I was wondering if anyone here is in a similar situation, or has been? How did you survive on just blind trust..?
I don't want us to fall apart because my parents just can not understand how our relationship works. Explaining it means nothing to them, as it seems they just want us to end and that's it.
Please.. I just need some advice, or support or something..
Thanks..
