“I Love My Boyfriend, But We Haven’t Yet Met”
Dear Wendy
I’m a 16-year-old girl in Colorado with a 16-year-old boyfriend in Tennessee. We have been dating for four months and we Skype all the time; we are in love. I won’t let him go and he won’t let me go, but we really want to see each other in person. I tried asking my parents if we could move to a new place, but they said no; they don’t know about my boyfriend. On the other hand, my boo asked his mom if they could visit or move here and she said no because of money, because she doesn’t like the cold, and because her son and I don’t love each other. Sadly, we are stuck here in pain; we love each other a lot. We want to go to college, get married, and have kids together, but we don’t know what to do about seeing each other in person. What do you advise? — In Love Over Skype
