You see that man in that picture? That is me. I'm metal as all holy heck and I will give you answers so metal, you'll grow a beard. Even if you're a teenage girl.

So throw a question my way? "I like this guy and this guy, what do I do?" PICK THE ONE WHO LIKES METAL! "I've been feeling depressed lately, what should I do?" LISTEN TO SOME METAL! "I need help with my pre-calc homework." THE ANSWER IS METAL!

I can handle it all, I will not shy away from any question. May the metal be with you!

I was in a relationship with my boyfriend for years, until his family moved to Alabama. I chose to stay behind to take care of my grandparents. They raised me, I feel I owe them. Now Nick's back and pushing me to choose him over family again.

How do I tell him that while I do love him, I would be unhappy living far away from my family?

Are they old and feeble, or do you just like their company?

That's the question you have to answer. If you're sticking around to take care of old, unhealthy grandparents who need assistance, your boyfriend can go get fucked. Boyfriends come and go, those who raise you are there forever. My grandpa was basically my dad until I was 10, I'll never forget how much he helped me, or stop feeling bad that there was nothing I could do in his later years.

Now, if you just like their company, and their fine health-wise, I'm not saying you're selfish for wanting to stay behind, it just puts you in a different spot. If you truly love this guy, and see a future with him, then you should probably move to Alabama. There's no reason you can't go visit, and your grandparents wont resent you, I promise. Now, if you don't see a future with this guy, stick around with the grandparents and let him make a decision. If he loves you he'll honor your decision, if he doesn't, once again, he can get fucked.

Anyways, grandparents are notorious for spoiling grandkids, I wouldn't blame you for staying with them.
