Im 16, a month after i turned 16 i met my boyfriend, it started over a McDonald's Oreo flurry! he is a couple years older than me, he knows about my past, he sees ive done self-harm and since me and him started to date, i havnt done anymore self-harm. He makes me happy and he got me out of all the bad things ive done.

The weekend after Valentine's is when everything started to go down...my mom is telling me i can't be with him because of his age, the first month she didnt care and then one day she just changed and said i cant be with him. Im still with him and will be for a long time. She is making me worst by the second she talks crap about it all and she just.. Keeps pushing me.

Him and i have been together since January 27th, me and him have had no fights, no arguments, nothing like that, he was trying to get me to let him pay for my back surgery so i can get it fixed, i said no, he works everyday, he helps out with his family, he buys me things i need even if i tell him not to. He has been there to hold me when he can.

Everyday we fall deeper and deeper in love with each other. We talk day to night unless hes working but once hes off we talk non-stop.i love him a lot, more than anything, but my mom wont let me be with him. Im not gonna leave him she can try and make me but i wont.
