This girl and I have something, but neither of us are in a position/straightforward sufficient to publicize...?

Question

I met her, I don't remember where, but about 5-6 years ago.  I started liking her about a year and a half ago and I think she likes me at this point.  I have some 'issues' with my parents on this topic and I am working a plan to get them used to the idea, but it takes time and I don't know how much time I have...  I mean, I love this girl to death and I would love to tell her so, but I'd have to do the whole 'secret relationship' thing and that wouldn't fly... I cannot stand the thought of her going out with some other guy, it would kill me.  But I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place here...  My dad is pretty cool, and I think he'd be ok with it, but my mom is very... eh... er...  You get the idea, she's particular.  So, I mean, I gotta do this, no other way.  Please feel free to email/IM your answer and/or for more info.  Thanks :)

You can't live your life for your parents. If you want to be with her, then be with her. Be honest with your parents and see what happens. You might be surprised. 

If you do nothing, you take the chance of losing this girl to someone else. But, everything happens for a reason...so if that were to happen, I suppose it was meant to be that way.

The way I see it you can either go after what you want or watch it slip away. It's your choice.

I think if you talk to your parents and tell them how you feel, they might be impressed with your maturity about the situation and allow it to progress. On the other hand, if you go about it all sneaky and create "plans", they will probably keep looking at you as a kid.

Whatever you decide I wish you luck.
