How can I tell my mother that I am in love?

Your idea is correct. It is better to communicate actively than to be entangled in the news. The best way is to prove that you are helpful together. I am a mother and my son is a freshman. I received a message from my son some time ago. Mom, I have some difficulties and want to talk to you. Do you have a minute? I called immediately after I received it. He was embarrassed at that time. He just didn't say anything on the phone and wanted to send me a message to chat. During the whole chat, he told me his contradictions, his happiness and their development. To tell the truth, I am very happy and know my son very well. I think you should tell your parents how you feel first, and get their approval in the tone of asking for their opinions. I wish you happiness.
