HIS mom? Does he have an honest-to-goodness job or some way he can be fiscally responsible in a couple? I'm sure part of it has to do with how young you still are, but I know that meeting the problem head on, and showing them that this is something real, something that will last, and something that is not being done to be rebellious will either bring them around or show them to be the kind of cold hearted people you don't want to imitate...
He has 3 jobs, hes a DJ (and has DJ'd for like EVERYONE everwhere!), he works at the airport in orlando, and he does promotions for insomniac magazine. hes hoping to get a job working at so so def records or a radio station in atlanta so he can move here and be closer to me, hes applied to several music companies in atl. Hes really responsible and has all of his stuff together... probablly because hes 30. Yeah we have a big age difference too... thats another factor that my parents wouldnt like... but he treats me WONDERFUL and Im happy, so I guess it doesnt matter... but it does to them.
Thanks
