I cannot find a solution, as either variant would hurt somebody and eventually me!!
Thanks for reading this message and I would be most grateful if you would write me back to check with other people's opinion because I feel so helpless  |
this is where you find out you cannot please all of the people all of the time. You are facing some big life decisions here - and you must make them yourself.
Most people, at some point, do stuff their parents disapprove of. Moving to a different country is a huge decision, as is picking a definite life partner.
Anyway, the way you tell it, there will be no possible way to both do what you want
and please your parents. I am sorry, but that is just the way things are sometimes.
It is a reason to really look
very very hard at
all your own motives for this choice (getting away from too demanding parents being one that suggests itself to me). If you have all the arguments in your heart, mind and spirit sorted, you can choose with no regrets. Take your time.
