I am in love with someone i can't be with, we're happy together and we care about each other. He's older than me for like 17 years but i'm 18. My parents don't like him, he was a friend of the family until we started hanging out...Now they don't want to see him near me....he's being there for me every step of the way...He's young looking so he doesn't look he's age. Now i feel that i need to take a break to shown my parents that this relationship it's not just me beign inmature, but he doesn't understand and he's scared how do i let him know i'll be back with him once i made my point???

Your parents feel betrayed by this "friend".
And, I don't understand the "need for a break" if you're so in love with man.

It doesn't matter how long you stay away from him.. You're parents are never going to change their mind. Trust me.. My parents still think I'm going to go back to my ex.. If he's 17 years older than you then maybe you should reconsider who you date. 17 years is a bit too old. Your parents will never accept him. You're their little girl and NO ONE is good enough for their little girl. The older the guy.. the more they dislike him. You need to choose... Lose you parents.. or lose the guy you care about. There's no chance of making a point to either of them. Decide which is more important and go from there.. But remember.. Relationships are not as reliable and guaranteed to last as a parents love for you...

why do you need to split with him to prove a point?That right there is immature.So what if hes older you are of legal age and your parents need to let you make your own desicions.Your boyfriend is hurt because he knows your parents dont want you with him and he thinks hes losing you for good.If you want to prove a point you stay with this man you claim you are in love with and show your parents you are your own person and will not be controlled and that u are leading your own life with this man.Prove them wrong by making this relationship work.Is it really your parents that have the problem?Are you using them as a scapegoat because maybe you are alittle scared how things are going?Or maybe you arent for sure hes the one you want deep down or you think the age difference is too much.Really search your soul and find out what you need to know.And do not ead this man on and crush his heart.I hope everything works out for you

A 35 yr old man is to old 4 you , there must be somthing wrong with him if he can't get a woman at least 25, and what the hell does an 18 yr old see in a guy twice your age , I could never see anyone twice my age .

Age is jus a number! I am with a guy that is 10 years older than I. If you really love this person and think you can see him in your life then stick it out. You are old enough to do as you wish!
Good Luck!
