Teen Gothic

As the title says, i want more than anything to dress as trad goth, i’ve wanted to for a really long time. i’ve started shifting to the more alternative look but not exactly where i want to be. Im talking full extreme bat dragon looking goth. however after telling my partner this, he expressed that he didn’t really like the idea. Now i’m stuck between either wasting my life pretending to be someone im not, or stay with my boyfriend (whom i love very much, please don’t get me wrong i would do anything for this man.) Someone please help me or give me some advise!!!

Things came to a head today and I can't do this another day. I texted my friend and he's coming tonight! It's finally about to be over! Thank you to everyone who supported me. You guys are awesome. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Edit: I know there's going to be some drama because he's going to be here when it happens. I know he's going to try to stop me. He's going to see me taking my stuff out of the bedroom. I'm a little worried he's going to physically attack me or try to restrain me. I'm considering calling the police to stand by but I don't want to put my friend through that. I'm just going to be firm and reiterate that it's over and I'm leaving.
