A Modern Day Romeo and Juliet

Anonymous

This is a story with a lot of ups and downs but it is the truth after all. Me (m 14) am in love with a girl (f 13) and she loves me just as much. You may ask, "Why are you on here if there is love between you two?". The problem goes deeper than that, and I will explain so you can see the pain.

For the past years of my life I have never been the person to know what love is like, for someone other than my family to say they care about me. I had a history of rejection but I know this girl isn't like the others. She is unique. Best of all, she loves me no matter my faults. And I love her no matter what.

The only problem is....her father doesnt believe in our love. He is the main one in control of her and I have to deal with not seeing her much. Her father just thinks I'm some guy trying to get in her pants. I sit here at night and don't know how she is or how upset she is without me by her side. To make things worse her father isn't the type to see love, he doesn't care if she loves a boy and it is true. He doesn't care about her happiness or anything.

I know her past and how life has done nothing but put her down and I feel like I came into her life to change all that. She is always depressed unless we are on Skype, she hurts herself if I am not around, and I just want to keep her safe but I can't. It hurts me to know that.

I would never talk to her if it wasn't for her mom letting me see her while her father was away at work. And with school starting back soon we will be in different schools and I will never be able to see her. I just have no guidance and it hurts me every second of everyday.

I'm not the type of person to be upset, but I just love her so much and our time is precious to me in every way. I would rather die than know that I won't be with her because of him. She said she would let go once I made my last breath. I just feel like this is something that doesn't have to be a problem, something that doesn't have to hurt.

I just don't know what to do anymore...
