**First let me say that I did not know where to exactly put this, so randomly I chose editorial.**

I want to fill you in on a little bit of my life before you read what I have to say.

My boyfriend and I have been going out for 7 months today. He lives in England and I am here in the US. No one really understands what it is we share. The reality is they probably never will. I met him online last year in June. In late August he told me he liked me and I felt the same.

I could swear to you that my mother is trying to do everything to keep us apart. She makes stupid suggestions, like if he truly loved me that he would move here. I talked to him about it and he said he had already been considering it. I then, of course, told my mother. The look on her face said it all. It was a look like 'F*ck.' I suppose she had thought by saying it we would break up.

Well, the following is a letter I wrote to him today. I thought of only sending it to him and letting him know how I feel. But then I thought about it some more and decided I want whomever reads this to understand as well.
