So I have a relationship question. I have been dating this girl for almost a year now. We have a had a lot of ups and downs. We both have our own issues as nobody is perfect but if you have read my other posts, the issues are a bit more serious than most probably. This is the situation: So her parents do not accept the fact that she is gay, I have not officially told mine that I am but they do know and have known since I was 15 (caught me with a girl, also long relationship). It has just never been said and yes it does need to be said. I am an only child and it is incredibly hard for me to actually talk to them about anything personal let alone my most personal admission. Of course it leaves me vulnerable and I simply cannot live without my parents while they are on this earth with me. They are the best parents in this whole world and I cannot imagine them turning their backs on me. However, we are from a small town ( I moved to the city when I was 21. So that is the first issue. The second issue is she lives about 40 mins from me. Not a HUGE deal but we are to the point of us living together. We both work in the city, I have an apt in the city that is about 10 mins tops for both of us as far as a commute goes. The apt is only 1 bedroom and she claims it isnt big enough for her. My complaint at her house is we are both wasting gas driving 30-40 mins both ways. She doesn't see it this way. She owns so therefore we have to be there. I do have a plan to buy a house as 1 year isnt long enough to commit to buying a house. I think that the issue is the love just isn't there or none of this would matter and I would tell my mom if it is the right person. I want my mom to know the real me though. I am just asking for some advice because our arguments go round and round. She got up today and just left, she couldn't take the city anymore............
