My family, anyhow, does not really mind. At first I thought my girl friend had the power to defend our love. But then he surrendered. She loves me and she loves her family too. On the one hand she said, "I'll be happy if my family is happy." It means she had to get approval from her parents. For this, I was shocked. My heart was broken. She ended our relationship just at the time when I was ready to marry her. When I was with her, we were very happy. We had a lot in common and there were no conflict. The truth was, we separated only because of her parents. They want her to marry her cousin, her aunt's son (this is one of the traditions in the Karonese). For the time being I am very upset. When I miss her I call her. Then we can eat together, talk together for hours. We act like dating because she loves me, too. The real problem is, she cannot refuse what her parents want.
