<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

I am a college sophomore [19M] and my former SO [14F] had just started high school when the split began. We had been seeing each other in somewhat secrecy for almost two years leading up to August 2014. My parents forbade the relationship but her parents were always fine with it...until recently. They had started reading her texts messages and saw how serious the relationship had become and decided to set me up in such a way to have my parents break us apart.

The rule I was given by her mother and father was that I cannot talk to her or see her until she is of legal age, which is seventeen (17) in the state she lives in. However, I was recently told that they won't allow it until she's eighteen (18). 

We had both made promises to each other to be there when the time came, which I believe in my heart to be true. Since the split we both have found new relationships. However, I know who I love in my heart and I plan on returning but it eats me away almost every day. 

I'm just looking for some advice on what I should do with myself. Do I give up and move on like I've been told by both her mom and my parents or do I hold on to the hope we can make things work out again?
<bot>: Me and my SO were split up because of age difference. Should I hold on to hope and work towards returning to her in three years or give up and forget about her, even though I love her with all my heart?
