My boyfriend and I met through an online forum for people with addiction and mental illness problems. Back then, he was a heroin addict and I was recovering from pill addiction and all kinds of mental issues. I was unemployed, generally just very unattractive (I was a bit delayed in developing a personal beauty/hygiene regimen), and had nothing going for me. Honestly, I thought my life was over. Then I met him and got motivated to try a little harder.

Fast forward a few years, and now I find myself in (er, rather, I worked my ass off to get) a somewhat high-ranking, white collar job making good money. I've also undergone a complete physical make-over and look nothing like I did a few years ago. In addition, my anxiety is manageable enough now to where I regularly do public speaking at my job. No one at work would ever guess, on the outside, that I ever had anything wrong with me. 

The problem is that as I've moved up at work, managers, directors and other high ranking people are starting to get "cozier" with me and asking casual questions about my personal life. My personal life is extremely embarrassing. I still live at home with my parents (that is too long of a story to get into right now - yes, I make very good money but there are other issues going on that preclude me from moving out right now). I met my boyfriend on a forum for people with drug and mental health issues. We are in a long-distance relationship. I fear it sounds weird and losery to say that we met online when he lives extremely far away.

Even my own parents don't know the truth of how my boyfriend and I met, but I did tell them that we met online. They subsequently freaked out. I just don't want to ruin my reputation at work by coming across like a weirdo in my personal life. How can I address questions at work about how my boyfriend and I met, who I live with, etc.?
