I love giving advice. Some of my advice has saved relationships, began new ones, and helped friendships. I'm willing to try and answer any question I can, using my own experiences and knowledge, as well as articles I read. Ask me anything! I earned my bachelors in Psychology in 2016. Feel free to ask me things! -Heather

Hi, I'm 19/F. I'm deeply in love with my boyfriend of almost 2 years now but our relationship has been kind of private due to my parents. They are not allowing me to start dating until I get at least a bachelors degree but I love my boyfriends so much. He wants me to tell my parents about us so do I but I'm scared that they'll get mad and start drama. His mother knows about us and I just want to be able to tell my parents about anything. What should I do? (link)

I think that since you\'ve almost been dating for 2 years, it would be okay to tell your parents now. At first, they might be mad since it\'s gone on for so long without them knowing, but you\'re technically an adult now and could move out and get married if you wanted to! Ultimately, if you love your boyfriend and plan on staying together for a long time, your parents will learn to love him too because he makes you happy. I don\'t know if your parents are the type to disown you or stop talking to you when they find out things like this, but in the end it is your life and your decision. I know it must be hard for you, and I wish I could help more, but I\'m always here to talk if you need follow-up advice when you tell them. Best of luck!
