My strict asian parents

Home More advice Parents & Family

Ok im 17 years old and I feel like I live in prison. I have a typical extremely strict asian parents. Im not allow to go anywhere, go to movies with friends, hangout with anyone, where the certain clothes I want, go shopping, talk on the phone, date, have a boyfriend, talk to any boys. I have no type of social life. There just too overprotective of me. All they care about me having good grades in school. I do great in school I have a 3.9 GPA take honors and AP classes and all of that. I have a boyfriend, hes black and spanish I have been with him for over 2 years now and I truely from the depths of my heart love him. We are currently in a long distance relationship I use to live where he lives at now. I live in Ga and he lives in Mass. We been apart since almost 1 year and 9 months and I havent seen him since and I talk to him everyday. But I dont know how to tell my parents about him since of course I can't have a boyfriend I can only find someone AFTER college. Also my parents want me to be with an asian boy. So I really don't know what to do. I really care about him and before I use to be so depressedI wanted to kill myself, I have cut myself and I loved it. But my boyfriend he saved me somehow and I thank him so much for that. I really don't know what to do. So if I tell my parents about him hes not going to like him because he is not asian.
