writes: My concern is about my parents. They are very protective at least my dad about a bf. He says i'm not allowed one until out of the house. I have been going out with this guy for 4 months now and am scared they will see us one time. I want to tell them but i'm sacred my dad will throw a fit and hurt me.(he can become violent sometimes when upraged). My mom seemed more relax about if i had a boyfriend at my age since she had her first bf around my age. I didnt tell her directly im going out with this guy but i asked about like her bfs and things kind of to see what she found acceptable. I know the limits and not scared of him pressuring me as i dont take that crap anymore like i us to.To tell or not to tell?, that is the question

Sneaking around behind your parent's backs is no way to live. Your parents will be very angry and disappointed when they discover this and rest assured they most likely will. Your best bet would be to talk to your mom about it first, if you act like an adult perhaps you can get her approval. I didn't allow my daughters to date at your age so don't be surprised if she doesn't either. Your Dad is only looking after your well-being and he may put his foot down. If they say no dating I hope you will respect it. I know this isn't what you wanted to hear but it may be for the best at this point in your life.
