Ok let me ensure you that although it’s true that sex trafficking is a huge issue (in many places not just Hungary) you can safely walk the streets in Europe. I mean sure things can happen but we can also get hit by a car in our own neighbourhood.

I lived in Eutope and now live in the US, I traveled to 18 countries (if you count the ones I lived at) and I am alive and well. (I also travelled to around 20 stares and some places are more dangerous than Hungary)

Most countries were in Europe including Eastern Europe and wasn’t kidnapped. It’s not to say there wasn’t ever any danger, of course there was but there is also a danger to get shot on a gas station in inner city. I live in nice suburbs but it’s a metro area of a city with very high crime. Sure I don’t walk the streets alone in the dark in some obscure streets in the city but I worked there and regularly go there for whatever reasons. I guess I take my chances

Bottom line the only way to ensure nothing ever happens to you is never go anywhere and never do anything.

Now as about Hungarian, it might not be the most important language for you to learn and I probably would rather learn something else as you can only speak it in Hungary but knowing it will not increase your danger of anything.

Now long distance relationship could certainly work but your parents might have legitimate concern.

My daughter is currently dating someone long distance (a very long distance similar to yours) but they have met and started dating in real life but then ended up in long distance. They now are flying back and forth every few months and discussing one of them moving to another ones location. Although it’s a huge move and change, I am not worried about it as they are both professionaly employed long living on their own and both lived and travelled in different countries. So relocating wouldn’t be the end of the world (just s big change).

Your situation might sound scary to your parents because it appears that neither one of you support ourselves or ever lived on you own. They might worry where will you live and how will you support yourself? Neither one of you can afford flying to see each other. You can’t just move in with people without visiting them few times.

How is this going to work realistically? I am not saying it can’t work or that they won’t approve of him as s person but your parents might freak out about logistics of travel or moving. Could you and your guy have some type of plan and presen it to your parents? Kind of prepare them?
