My girlfriend and I have been together for less than a month. My friends and other people at my school are the only one who knows about our relationship and not my family at all. My family doesnt even see me because I commute with a bus when i go to my school (about 30 minutes from my house and my college is in a different state). Moreover, my family doesnt know about my friends because they never see and meet them at all (not like in high school in which we are all in the same town so my parents can see and meet them) Do you think is it ok to hide our relationship for a while and reveal it to my parents few months before I graduate college next year? My parents are not that strict to me except regarding relationships....i think they dont want me to have a girlfriend for a while until i finished college because they told me I can do whatever I want when I graduate. What do you think? any comments?

I would make sure that the feeling to keep the relationship a secret is a mutual one with your girlfriend. About your parents, though, in reality, you are an adult and can do what you want as far as relationships. But since they are that way, I can see how you would be ify to let them in. And by the time you get ready to graduate, you and your girl will be more serious if you are still together so your parents would know that you are for real about it. Just definitely let your gf know what's going on, otherwise she may get the idea that you don't want her to meet your parents or vice versa. She may think you're somewhat ashamed of her. All this considered, I think it is perfectly ok to keep the relationship on the low.

You've mentioned that you've dated before. How did you both break up after that? I guess its because he have been pressured about the people around him making fun of him because of your relationship. He only came back to you because of his own selfish needs. If your boyfriend really likes you, he will never be ashamed of you, that hurts but its true that he does not really like you if that's what he have been doing. I say that you should talk to him again about this and ask him why does he need to keep your relationship a secret? If he didnt answer then leave him. You can find someone more than you deserve. It's not actually a relationship if both partners are not really into each other

You know your parents best.
I would suspect them hassling you about a relationship interfering with school. Then you say "does being in a relationship interfere with your job?" and then you win the argument
Why would you let your parents control your life anyways, be your own man.
