Promise I'll Be Fine, But I Won't Stop Until That Boy Is Mine.

So; I've met someone perfect.
'Oh suprise, suprise Lucy; when have you never met someone who's perfect?'
But he really is.
He calls/texts when he says he will. If he says he'll be somewhere then he will be, and if he's late he still turns up and is always completely apologetic.
So what's the problem then?
My parents believe that his family is rough, and that therefore he is too and that I'm going to be in some sort of danger and getting involved with the wrong people if we get together, not to mention that apparently the house and dogs are also in some sort of grave danger should the two of us break up or something.
As if the family is going to get involved in a break up. But there you go, my parents have completely banned me from ever seeing him again.
And it's killing me.
I'd see him on the sly if 1) I'm completely incapable of lying and don't want to go behind my parent's backs as I'd feel far too guilty, and 2) If I went behind their backs and got found out then I'd be sent to boarding school/abroad-this is not the average boarding school threat that most parents throw at their teenagers at some point, my parents have actually begun to make enquiries.

So now I don't know what to do.
All I want to do is see the boy who is incredible. The boy who gives me butterflies and who's kisses make me melt. But instead I spend most of my days dying a little inside while I don't get to see him and my parents will not back down. My appetite has been affected, I feel ill all the time. I'm not interested in anything and I have no motivation except for my music and my photography.

I just want my boy. And I don't know how to make my parents understand this :(
