Just remember that your mom is looking out for you because you loves you. If you can, try working on your dad. It's hard to talk to parents because sometimes it seems like they really don't want to listen. If you have to, talk to your boyfriend about it. Like I said before, communication can go a long way and if you talk to him about your feelings, the two of you can work together in what you are going to do. Luckily, since you two are so close you can be a team in this and get through this together. If it helps, maybe your parents could meet his parents and build a relationship there. Bonding will also be helpful. Good luck! Remember: ♥ iCY iS ALWAYS LiSTENiNG ♥ [ icy's advice column | Ask icy A Question ]
