I need wisdom E-Mail: (Hidden email address) Category: Love 10/21/2012 1:02 PM I'm 20 years old. I've met a man. We are serious about each other and it came out of the blue. For the first time in a long time, I've felt completely stress free, at peace, and happy. We haven't started officially dating yet, but it's getting there, and I feel he might actually be the one and he's mentioned the same to me. He is literally the nicest, most gentlmen-like, and most together person I've ever met. He claims he believes in God and things relating to Christianity, but he says his grandmother was really what kept him "spiritual" as he put it, and he said when she died ha hasn't wanted to go back to church. So, I'm relieved that he believes, despite he isn't walking with Christ as I am, but I know if I asked him to go to church with me he would. Anyway, my problem is my parents. I love my parents to death, they brought me up right and provided a fantastic Christian upbringing, however, it has recently been brought into light for me that my mom is completely against him and I being together...because he's black. It disgusts me that my mom feels this way especially, when we have many family friends that are black. She simply assumes they are "different" and when it comes to a black man wanting a relationship with a white girl, that all he wants is to be sexual with her. She should know that I have a good head on my shoulders though. Plus, he respects all of my morals and values. He would NOT force himself on me. She won't even hear my side of the story. She's made me feel like such crap about this that I feel it could start affecting my relationship with her and my relationship with this guy. I know I'm the one who is right in this situation because I'm doing nothing wrong. I don't want this to split me and my parents up though! I don't know what I'd do without them. Yet, I don't want to sacrifice my happiness for their selfishness because they think I'm dishonoring or disrespecting them, when I'm not. I'm a jigsaw puzzle of mixed emotions right now, and I don't know what to do.
