Hey there,
I'm really sorry that your girlfriends parents don't care for you that much. Unfortunately, I think that everyone has gone through something like that at least once in their life. My parents disliked a couple of the guys I dated and while I tried to push their words aside, it was really difficult. Your parents definitely have a big influence on your life and it is so much easier when they approve of who you're with. Of course you shouldn't let their words influence your relationships TOO much. I see you said that her mother is Filipino, and that she doesn't like you because you are Filipino as well? Seems like a crazy excuse to me. I also think that the bit about her saying she wouldn't have eyes for another guy if her parents had liked you in the first place is kind of..not true.
To be bold, you guys are both young and have plenty of time for relationships in your future. In my opinion I think that it would be best if the two of you ended it and pursued something else. If her parents are taking the time to refuse to let you hang out with her then they aren't giving themselves a chance to open up and really get to know you. You don't need to be with a girl with parents like that. You need to be with someone whose family will take you in as one of their own, in a way. It's not fair for you to put so much effort into getting to know them when they won't take the time of day for you. It's also not fair for this girl to string you along. I know that you both care for each other but if you love something, set it free and if it comes back then it was meant to be.
Just think long and hard about what you want to do and most importantly think of what is going to make you happy. You need to put your feelings first.
Take care,
Amber.
I've been through hell and back and came out stronger than ever.
