I don't really have a good relationship with my mum, and I really want to tell her about my boyfriend, he is 23 which I know is a lot older then me, but I wouldn't let him hurt me for the world. I know he is not perfect compared to my sister's boyfriend but I actually like this guy. Is there any parents out there who can help me ??

hi there i read ur problem n it sounded so familiar to what i went thru last year. i was seventeen an my bf was 23. i kept it a secret from my mum n dad for a long time n when they eventually found out then went balistic.My advice would be to tell them u r seeing someone sooner rather than later. jus try not to make a big deal out of it then hopefully they wnt either.

at 17i thought i was rele mature n grown up but realised i wasnt. ur mum n dad will probs say that u r too young etc etc n he only wnts on thing. jus assure them that u no what u r doing, ur bein careful n would be happy for them to accept the relationship for what it is. they should respect u for showin ur maturity n maybe be less hot tempered.

hoe this helps, take care x

I know there will be alot of people who are going to say this guy is too old for you.

But in reality you are above the age of consent and old enough to make your own decisions. This includes your choice in boyfriends.

Don't rush ahead and tell them his age before they've met him or they'll make their own minds up before seeing him. Invite him around,even maybe just to meet you if you're going out somewhere. Then they'll be able to causually meet him.

Dont worry about him being compaed to your sisters' boyfriend. Not everyone has the same taste in men aferall!
