Relationships

My mum doesn't seem to want me to be happy and seems to not approve of my relationship?

I met a guy online nearly 3 months ago now. We talk non stop everyday, phone calls, texts, video chat. Last weekend we decided to meet up. He lives in London and I live in the Midlands area, so it's just over an hour on the train. I spent two nights with him. My mum and dad were concerned about my safety. To the point where my dad was making comments about me being bundled into a car and being killed, not coming home. My mum called me on the Friday just before I met him, crying down the phone telling me she was worrying about me and it seemed like she didn't want me to go.. But I said I'm 26 years old and after a rough time with my ex this guy makes me happy and I have to start living my life. I met him, I was fine. I was texting my mum for most of the weekend, I sent her my location so she knew where I was. We had a great weekend and after 2, nearly 3 months of talking he asked me to be his girlfriend. I said yes of course as he makes me happy and we just click and get on. When I got home all my mum kept saying to me was that "I hope this is what you want". It is what I want. I have booked a train to go to see him in about 2 weeks time. I have had nothing but worries from my mum saying that I should google these people who met someone online and got kidnapped and killed etc. I understand why she is concerned as I know it does happen but I feel like I know this guy and me makes me so happy. I feel like I do love him, he treats me how I should be treated. I just don't want to keep feeling like crap all of the time when I'm at home. My parents make me feel like what I am doing is illegal. She keeps going on about my safety and I just don't know how I can prove to her that I will be okay? I can't? I'm 26 and I feel like I've been treated like a child and wrapped in cotton wool all my life. I just want to start living my own life and being happy for a change
