i was 16 years old and just finished high school. i had a boyfriend who was an American Filipino. we were classmates since we were first year and by the time we graduated, he had to go back to America to live with his dad. i was devastated of course. who wouldn't be when the one they love would leave and go to some distant place?
well, that is when i learned that i could go with him. aside from he's rich, he's handsome, good-looking, but that was not the reason why i love him. anyway, i was okay with studying in America but that would mean i would leave my grandparents here in the Philippines. you see, i was an orphan and my grandma and grandpa raised me up. when i told them that my boyfriend invited me to go with him, they said it was okay..but it wasn't for me.. i was torn between family and love.. a week later after the graduation, the flight for America was already scheduled yet i still haven't decided. ..
amidst the confusion, i chose to stay with my grandma and grandpa and let the chance to be with my bf slip.. 2 years later, my grandma died, soon followed by my granddad..and i had no one with me. sure, i had my friends but they weren't always with me. .it was then i realized my mistake. i could have gone with my boyfriend and still visit my grandparents.
i realize why my granddad and grandma told me to go was because they have no more time remaining. .my granddad had cancer while my grandma had heart disease. i was so immature that i didn't know this.. i wanted to get back with my boyfriend, in fact i already did, but it was too late..he already had a girl friend. someone much prettier than me...it was the biggest mistake i had done..and now, i'm already 22, and still single..still waiting for that second chance to fall in love..

I'm 16.5 years old right now, it was back when i was 15...my story was kinda similar to yours...only mine was from state to state in the US. I live in CA and my ex live in MN. He came to my town and the last two days (and the only two days i ever saw him in our 1 year relationship) I snuck out with him. The 2nd day we got caught. I could have gone with him that day. He proposed to me right in front of my parents. I love him so much and I still do right now. But once he left, he never showed up...I found out he cheated on me, then he didn't admit he knew me, so i broke up with him. now, he still call my house phone. I bet maybe his gf rite now found out, but idk...he still call me and bothers me...he's one of those good-looking guys, but not rich. he got the good talk and everything. after i broke up with him, his nephew told me all tat time my ex probably used me. i'm so glad i never went with him and get marry to such a guy with so many issues. always watching porn and drinking beer...always chasing after girls...if i went with him, i would live a horrible life alone in the house as he disappear every night. I'm so glad i never gone with him to MN. it's just one thing that clings to my heart, I still love him...and idk y...but i'm sure the guy who will treat me right just haven't show up yet. maybe at fresno state? or maybe in my dream job of being a biochemist...or a genetic counselor

for me your decision was not a mistake....
if your boyfriend thus really loves you he will wait for you no matter what it takes!.. for me, it is better to cherished your precious time to the people that really special to you.
