ok..

i have a boyfriend whos almost 21 and im 18 and have been dating for a year and a half. were in love its obvious. we have talked about our future together and marriage after college and gettin settled.

recently he wanted to go back to college 3 hours away from where we both live to his mothers house. and his family invited me to live there to go away to college together.

its a comm. college and a satellite university right in the area. we would have to go to the comm. college for 2 years in order to go there.

so our plan was to maybe go to this comm college not for long and try to attend a big university together.

my mom told me i could go. she said we had to both get into this university together. but we cant because we dont have the grades. so then she said we had to get an on-campus apartment together. this university doesnt have them. so then she said i cant live with his family.

i dont know wat to do. she wanted me to go away and i decided to go to the comm. college here, but when i bring it up theres resrictions and it turns into her yelling at me and a NO. isnt college,.. COLLEGE?? idk my mom isnt a person of reasoning and she doesnt like to listen to what people have to say. she OBVIOUSLY knows that im not a happy person since they made me and my sister move from Ny to FL

and i became depressed. so she thinks i "hate" her for it and when she drinks it only makes it worse. to the point of hittin and throwing things at me.

she knows i dont have many friends besides him and he doesnt have many friends either. so she nitpicks me about how im weird to not have friends and how i only spend time with him. he makes me EXTREMELY happy and i would hate for us to break up because we werent allowed to go away to college together. and living at his house is only temp. until we apply to a university but my mom isnt easing up.

i can leave if i wanted but then she dangles the car and money over my head. i seriously need help to persuade her that its ok and ill be fine.

  1. Come up with a list of reasons why this decision is the best for you.  If she won't listen... well, you are 18.  You are old enough to move on and do what you want.  No, you won't have her money (or car) but you are an adult and you have to make your own decisions.

    Although I do think it's weird that you are so in love with this guy but you think you will break up if you aren't allowed to go to college together... that doesn't seem healthy.
