I decided to post this in Marriage and Divorce because I figure there are a lot of people who would have good advice about making the best decision in a relationship... For 2 years, I was friends with a guy in Dublin over the internet. A while back, he "introduced" me to his roommate, and we are crazy about each other. He's visiting this Fall for the first time, and I have never been so excited. However, I know my family would never approve of the relationship, simply because it began online. But I know my feelings are real; I have never felt so strongly about someone. I just don't know if I should pursue happiness with someone I adore, or cater to my family's wishes and settle for less. On the one hand, I'm with him, but my family is severely disappointed.... while on the other hand, I'm miserable without him but pleasing the people who raised me. What should I do?
