If I must say anything at all, it is that you should tell your mum the truth. It would show a large deal of respect to her, and it would also prove that you're capable of handling your own problems. If she thinks that the phone bill is a ridiculous amount of money, offer to help by doing chores or babysitting for the people around you. There is no reward for hiding the boyfriend. All it does for you is provide a temporary wall between the truth and your mum, but it also leaves you with a pit of guilt in your stomach everytime you see your mum. The reality of it is, either she approves, or she doesn't. You must obey her until you are free to be on your own.

Are you the one with the "really possessive" boyfriend? You certainly have a lot of secrets for one so young. It seems to me that you'd probably find life a lot less complicated if you aren't hiding things from people who should know them. Your mother is responsible for your well-being and your care until you are old enough to take care of yourself. If you are lying to her, then she can't do her job.
I'm very concerned about this boyfriend, he sounds like a loser.

I believe it to be a salient point to ask: may we know why you don't want your mother to know you have a relationship?

Well, I think if the bill has already come though there's a chance she will find out. So you'll either have to bite the bullet, or do as chigirl says. If you have the internet, maybe you could chat over that.

Call him only from a phone outside of the house.
