Hi all, I'm in a very difficult spot. I've been in an inter faith relationship for a few months. Yet we know due to our country's strict laws, we have no future. And yes I've read many times on how I should not take part in a relationship that has no pathway to marriage. However what is done is done. I decided to tell my parents about this relationship I've kept hidden. They wanted me to break up immediately. My girlfriend who has treated me so well and cared for me just left for her studies quite a distance away yesterday. She felt very hurt by the fact I broke up with her on the first day she left. While I can be there for her as a friend, this is very hurtful to her and I understand why. I honestly cannot bear to see her this hurt. I am trying to convince my parents to at least give us some time to break up when it will not be so hard on either of us. Please advise and help me on how I can explain to my parents.
