Dear caroline1234:

“do you think it is possible to change, and that if I really want to be the best for my boyfriend now, it’s alright to stay with him?“- yes, I do think that it’s possible for you to change: you already proved that! And I think it’s alright for you to stay with him, for as long as the two of you are good to each other. (Not perfectly good, because perfect behavior is not possible!)

“my mother knows about it.. said that she’s very proud of me and isn’t mad at all about things that happened when I was a teenager.. So she is very supportive..“- then accept her support, take in what she told you, that she is proud of you: close your eyes and with a smile, slowly can calmly breathe in her words, say to yourself: my mother is proud of me, and so am I.
