The truth, the lie and the desire.?

OK im not gonna answer what you WANT to hear just to get best answer. Honestly what you did was WRONG and you were very lucky because i don't know if you've been sheltered from the world but there are MANY stories on online dating where the guy turns out to be a rapist and killer. First of all you defied your mom and lied to her, second of all you defied her for some guy in germany you didn't even personally know, third of all you are STILL lying and fourth of all you are ONLY 17, and now 18 but still your not completely an adult and specially with what you did just proves your not mature enough. You should seriously tell her the truth or maybe the truth with a few lies, for example " Well mom actually the person i met in Germany was actually this really nice boy that i REALLY like and he likes me too, we've been talking over face book and i would REALLY love to see him again". Why don't you take your friends with you? If you do it will make her feel safe that you will be cared for. Im sorry but i hate it when people think they can do whatever the f*ck they want because they're 18, well guess what most people STILL need their parents and CANNOT act on their own so at least your are mature enough to realize that its immature. Do not play the i'm 18 card because your mother raised you and she deserves better than your defiance because of your age. If your sure you love this guy and are willing to risk it all (because remember you dont FULLY know this guy, he can totally change) be careful because we have too many lost lives because of this. Although i agree its your life and your choice and with being an adult comes responsibility not only being able to do whatever you want without parental consent. Put it this way, if he fell in a lake full of crocodiles, would you jump in to help him get out? If the answer is no then he isnt worth risking, if yes then go for it. Keep this in mind because you CAN end up disappointing or in tragedy, this is why you should consult her for advice first, remember... Mother knows BEST. Best of luck and hope i helped.
