Parents won't let me see my guy! Should I lie to them

Question - (11 December 2008) 6 Answers - (Newest, 20 December 2008)
A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I'm in love w/ an amazing guy in WI. He is making plans to see me this summer but there's one problem: my parents. I'm like 3 yrs. younger than he is so I'm pretty sure my parents won't approve. The way I met him is a totally different story but perfectly reasonable. I want to spend time w/ him when he comes to see me, but how can I without lying to my parents? I would tell(of course)when I was older and we could be together b/c if I told now, chances are slim.

-NothingLasts4ever- agony auntHow about you tell one of your parents, whichever one your closest to, that theres a boy your interested in and tell them all about it. Tell them how you feel about him, how he makes you feel and so on. Then hopefully they'll see it from your point of view and won't freak out so much.

If they still don't agree to it, try to see it from their point of view. I'm sure if they said no there was a reasonable excuse for it, maybe for your protection?

I don't want to lie. I hate lying, but if I told them my mom and dad would freak and I wouldn't be able to talk to him again.

eyeswideopen agony auntI love it when we hear of parents doing their job. Now you do your job as their child, obey them.

-NothingLasts4ever- agony auntOkay then. 13 still isn't really old enough to start lying to your parents. It could become a nasty habbit and it would be hard to break.

Just either tell your parents what your getting up to or tell this guy that your parents won't approve or whatever. If he buggers off at least you know where you stand and you know you made the right decision.

If he loves you, he'll accept your answer, whichever one you pick.

-NothingLasts4ever- agony auntOkay, you're between the age of 10 and 12... why lie to your parents at that age?

I know you probably think you're in love, but you're probably not. Love is a serious emotion. You might really fancy this guy, but I doubt it's love.

Trust me, when you become a teenager, you can lie as much as you like. But because you're young, I wouldn't advise lying to your parents.

Good luck
