@queeeeeeeeeen10,
You're suggesting that you are young, perhaps your Uncle is trying to protect you until you are of a bit older age to make good Management decisions.
I think that often the first boyfriend, becomes "the person" until someone else comes along that you fall more for.
I also think, that if this boy hasn't spoken to you in 8 months, he didn't have the same love for you or else he would have tried to find a way around it, off course unless he was **** scared of your Uncle and then, he has a right to stay away and not have to deal with any aggression or worse.
Leave it be. Concentrate on school. Check in with him in a couple of years time, if it was meant to be it will still be there.
