My Background

February 01 2006

OK, So here is the deal... i am in love with a great guy that my parents don't approve of and neither do my friends. Well, not all of them... most of them support me, even though they don't fully agree with my decisions...Anyways.. my parents told me that they want me to be happy... well, how am I supposed to be happy without this guy that fits so perfectly with my life? We get along so great and our schedules are pretty much the same. He makes me laugh constantly and we never fight. He knows exacly how to keep me happy and surprises me all the time. He knows what and how i am feeling and we really connect with one another. That's what i have been looking for.. for the last year! Now that I am happy, i have to keep it away from my family. Although I feel like it is a horrible thing to do, I don't feel like it is not all my fault. I wish they would just accept. Is anyone else in my situation?Now prom is coming up and my mom is trying to tell me that I am not going to be able to go to prom with him. Maybe I should take someone else and just meet up with him, you think? I don't think so. I can't handle lieing anymore and i want them to know. Forget all the people in the community. They never approve of what teenagers are doing and pretty soon  I will be away from this hell hole. College is  so much different. People don't care about things like this. That's why I can't wait until i graduate, go to college, and move away to Colorado with him.  I will give you more information when it comes to my mind. Right now I am just in awe because of him. I love him and no matter what I am going to be here for him. Somehow I will work this is out, right?

well i dont want to wreck all your plans and all but obedience to your parents usually is the best things even tho we want something and dont want anyone to get in the way of it... my only question is does this guy that you like...if you were to be in a relationship would it be fruitful? im not asking can you change him or do you think it will be fruitful... im asking "will it be" prayer and silence is usually the best thing to seek after in the Lord

God is very much aware of this situation. My parents do not disagree with me being with the GUY... it is his color that makes this such a big deal. I know that many people, even Christians, disagree with this concept as well... But he is perfect. He lives with a white family that is very much a part of his life and who have taught him to do all things through Christ. We have prayed and all though for me it is getting easier, I still don't have a clue... Should I tell my parents, or what? I know that they know... its just a matter of me telling them the obvious. I am 18 and I am not looking for LOVE... but this is the type of guy and THE guy that i want to be with forever. Tonight i stayed at his house and just sat watching TV with him and his family. They don't judge me bc of my color.. so why should my parents? God wants me to be happy as well.. the way I look at it, EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON---> Well.. HE came into my life for a reason. To make me happy and to have a best friend within a lover... Praying is helping and i will continue to do that.. but I dont know how much longer I can keep my feelings inside.... well away from my family...
