You sound like a beautiful woman but have insecurities. You know you have a strong family background and you know they know what is best for you. You know what is best for you. You already know in your heart what you need to do. Its going to be hard, but to move on is the best thing.

Look at the 7 years of your life and you have not met his family. There are plenty of Italian stallions in your country. go look and open your eyes and heart to see that your place is truly where you long to be. That is by your family. That door to going home is already open now all you need to do is make that first step, close the door behind you and move ahead.

You already gave everything to this relationship, you did your best to understand your man, he has not changed, you changed yourself for him now, God is giving you a chance to move on, take it. Life is too short. Life is beautiful! Make the change and I am sure in a month you will not have regrets, for you must give yourself a chance to see that change, heartache is part of it, your heart will grow red again, ready to love, and you will see that life is truly beautiful!
