You know, Relationships are complicated, not that all of you havn't figured this out on your own already. But try living in a lesbian relationship, Things are prone to go wrong and be difficult as hell at times. My girlfriend and I have been together a little over 6 months and things havn't been exactly "easy"....in fact, things are very difficult. My Girlfriend is Philipino, not making a racial comment, I'll explain. Rain's mom is the first generation of their family to live in America. Being so, she is very traditional with her cultural beliefs. One cannot blame a women for that, but it's difficult when my g/f lives in america, wanting to be a part of the American ways when her mother is having a hard time understanding. Her mom believes girls only need family, and that friends aren't necessary. She thinks she should constanty stay at home and that there is no need for her to be on the phone, let alone go out. She claims that by Rain wanting things that we have( me and her other friends) she's saying she wants to be like us and have "broken" families. Anyways, it's hard only seeing eachother during school, and other visiting hours are a rarity. I miss her dearly with being on summer vacation and all. when we had only been together for only a month or so, rain's mother talked to us and said she would not tolerate this in her house. So we have tried to pull of the "we are just friends now" thing but we're still together, and her mother must be aware of it. Our relationship is proven to be strong. We are with no doubt, going against the odds. But we're doing it. It's draining at times and my only worry is that we spend so much time talking about our relationship and defending it that it makes little time for "US". I hope we can hold on untill we're 18 or a little older when we will really have the chance for things to work out. I tend to get insecure and jealous and whatnot....but what can I say i'm head over heals in love with her.............
