Life of a breadwinner

Dear Chixie,

Have a great day! This problem of mine is part of my love life and family.
Naa koy boyfriend for 8 years now.
Fred is an OFW Chixie and he is about to go home to the Philippines. Years ago, he proposed to me and it happened before he left and promised to marry me when he came back.
I'm so thankful he has a plan for us both but I remind him that I'm the breadwinner of our family and many others trust me.
But according to my boyfriend at the time he understood the situation and hopes that when he comes back, our wedding will be stable.
I have two brothers that I helped with school, one in elementary and the other in high school.
Chixie is a certified rocketeer. Aside from my main job in the office, I also do online selling. Both my parents didn't go to school cause I really had a wish for us siblings especially we're eight and my other siblings went live early. Some too, just don't do a proper job.
That's my life growing up it's hard
My problem started because last month I talked with my girlfriend and she talked back about her marriage proposal. He said he was ready for our wedding because he really put it together. Congratulations Chixie but I didn’t share it with her that I was a bit hesitant to postpone the wedding because of my family.
I told my parents about Fred's plan but my mom mentions I have a sibling that didn't make it and my dad is sick. My mom says what will happen to them when I leave the house.
I told my mom I was ready to help them but my mom seemed to be pitiful. I feel that he is hesitant to let go of me.
Just the other day, Fred called and said when he came home, they were going to stay because he told his family.
I didn't give her attention but she reminded me that she waited for a long time and she wished that I could choose our relationship this time.
He also promised me that whatever my problem is, he'll help but deep inside I'm also tired and I don't want him to be the 2nd priority in our relationship.
I honestly love my family but there are times when I get tired. What the hell am i supposed to do?
