    How to convince your parents to agree on your engagement
    Hello, I have a boyfrien that I have met on Facebook, we are planning to get married just after he get a job.. but the problem is that his all family knows about me and our story while I didn't tell anyone of my family.. my family doesn't even know that I have an account on Facebook.. I'm afraid that if I tell them now they will say no (since my boyfriend and I live and different countries) :'( I love him a lot he loves me too he's ready to run away with me and marry me in case my parents refused him :'((..

    You have never met this boy and spent time with him in real life?

    How old are you and he?

    I don't know what this means -- "i live exactly in "sousse" and my boyfriend live in "sfax."

    Your first problem is telling them about Facebook and your account. Do they like the Internet?
