Fyi I'm 15M in a relationship with 16M. My country is still traditional I guess, so many people are still prejudiced against the LGBT.
Me and my boyfriend met on a website for gay teenagers. It's kind of a long-distance relationship since we live an hour apart, but we're still together after four months and we love each other to death. We both want to study abroad when we leave for university, so that we can have a closer and more honest relationship.
Because right now, I'm falling deeper into depression since nobody supports my relationship. I told my parents like two months ago. My dad thinks I'm rebelling, and my mom still cries and yells whenever I mention going out to meet my boyfriend. She said she'll never let me go to a foreign university because then no one will be able to save me from the sin. My friends are all religious because I know them since childhood and we've volunteered at church together and performed in a church choir. They're at least happy for me, but they also say "don't expect us to support you being with a guy".
I feel miserable because at this point, the only person who thinks my relationship is normal is my therapist and she has to be supportive because that's her job. She's the only one I can talk to without the fear of being judged, except for some online friends. Anyway I don't know how to feel better. If my parents really don't let me leave abroad for my studies, and I have to break up with my boyfriend then there will be no point in living. I'm looking for help with dealing with this situation and people in my life because it's mentally exhausting.
tldr: I only get support for my relationship in therapy, everyone else wants me to leave my boyfriend. I feel like I'm going to go crazy unless I do something.
