thank you very much for all of your concerns.
ive been praying about this. and to my conclusion, ive decided to have a break up with him.

im too young for this matter and i understand that my parents wants only the best for me. and i know that God has someone reserved for me in the future. and if me and him are meant for each other, there would be a way soon that we will be together. i made clear to him about this situation that we have. i am very happy that my boyfriend understood the reasons why. and we both decided to be friends like we used to. and i am praying that we wont be awkward like others after break ups :) and i really hope we wont..

all we have to do know is enjoy our youth days. and always seek God for wisdom for questions that pops in our minds, and for what we are going through, and will be.
thank you sooooo much guys for making me understand and realize things out :)
God bless..
Gratz on your decision Ate Zai :)
Usually breaking up is hard... but looks like both of you understand each other :D
Remember this: The best friendship leads to the best relationship

your parents really dont trust you, at your age they would hope you dont sneak off and be alone with eachother..

They are basically trying to protect you from any emotional pains like breakups and stuff. its simply best to date when you are 18. Also not everyone who has the word "christian" means they are a christian, they could act like it at church but who they are at home or other place besides church shows their true nature, alone or occupied.

just a heads up
this is especially true when you are studying for exams that could determine your whole future. I am studying hard right now to get into college and I could not afford major distractions. So I still have tight curfews and a no- dating policy applies. Of course, college is important too and while I stay under my parent's care to study there, there will still be curfews and any dating activities will take second place to obtaining the highest qualifications I am capable of. I do appreciate that there is a time for everything and right now I have to focus on making the most of whatever talents God has been generous enough to bestow on me.

It's really special that you choose to honor God over yourself in this matter.

Listening to your parents when it's hard is kind of like a model for listening to God even when it's hard. If you get into the habit of disobeying you might find it easier to fall into other sins like fornication and stuff which can have a big negative impact on your life.

But what you've done is a great choice. I think when you are 18 your parent's opinion, while still very important to you, will no longer be the deciding factor. And if that boy waits around until then and still wants to be with you, it will show you how much he really did care. It's really good that he understood the reasons and didn't try to convince you to go behind your parent's back.

I don't think you have to worry about the 'awkward' thing, because you handled the situation honestly. God bless

God has His timing. And if that guy is the one God has planned for you, eventually, it will all work out. Just trust in the Lord, and all will be clear. He'll show you the way. Just have faith, and patience. Patience is the key to happiness. God was patient with you, wasn't He? So now, just trust His timing, and have patience with Him. You're still young. God knows best.

God bless. Have a good day :)
