Is it normal to be 23 and still be controlled?

I've recently found someone I enjoy speaking to from a dating site. I'm 23 , never had a boyfriend, shy, self conscious and I thought it was time I put myself out there.
It was hard for me to tell him how I am, it makes me anxious and embarrassed, and I've never had a hot guy call me beautiful before but he does, we haven't met yet, but I've recently found out he has a child, which doesn't bother me, what bothers me is I can't move if things got serious because I have a business I want to take over, he's just over an hour away and I'm not sure he would want to move when his child is down there.
I really like him but idk whether to just push him away now because I'll end up falling for someone I may not be able to have.
He wants to chat with me on the phone, my parents are always worrying about me finding someone, my mum even told me to try online dating, I'm so reserved and if I chatted to him on the phone there's two problems, what I'd say, and if I just spoke it front of my parents they'd ask who why what where yes I'm 23 but that's just how it is, I'd tell them and they may not like me for not telling them. I don't get phone calls because I don't have many friends.
So maybe I'll tell my mum I'm online dating in the morning and then have a private phone call without her knowing.

Uh someone kick my arse please.
My head is stupid.

Maybe I'm overthinking.

Advice!

    When I was 4 years old I lived in a trailer park in a mobile home. I lived with my mom, my grandma, my old cat Gypsy (a tabby with white mittens), and a blue parakeet named Harriet. My home caught on |fire| because apparently accidents do in fact occur on occasion. Most likely this was my mom's fault if that wasn't already completely obvious. No one actually died during this event either by the way because my mom saved all of us, lol. I wasn't even scared honestly, I just remember staring at the flames of my trailer and thinking that it looked cool af. My mom still tried to tell me that my favorite stuffed animal (a green snake named Martin, which I now have a second copy of in my closet.) didn't actually burn up in flames, but I still remember going to a toy store with her and buying a new Martin. So yeah, you're good I guess.
