    Can I ask what do you want?

    How do you want to live your life?

    In fear of being caught?

    Blackmailed?

    Ask yourself what are the pros and cons of the situation.

    You're an adult and I understand your culture dictates a lot of what you do,respect for your parents is paramount at any age.

    Again I ask.. what do YOU want for YOUR life?

    It's your life, not your boyfriends
    Start letting these men in your life know you have a backbone.

    Tell your parents and get the brother in law off your back and if the boyfriend doesn't like it, he'll get over it.

    What happens if you are out with your boyfriend and someone who knows your family sees you and asks you parents about the 'boy' their daughter is seeing? Congratulations will probably not be accepted gracefully.

    Parents who have one child that disrespected their values and traditions tend to be more vigilant with the others. They haven't caught you yet, but I have a feeling you are probably going to be in the not too distant future. Do you want them to catch you (leaving the brother-in-law of it for the moment)?
