writes:My parents have long been telling me not to date. 1) boys get in the way of studies, 2) boys can go too far. I met this guy, we've dating for a long time.. and yes, I know this doesn't sound real, but to me.. it's the real thing. I'm 16 years old, he's the same. I want to tell my parents about him but I just can't find the courage. I don't want them to feel betrayed, but I have been lying to them. I don't know what to do. HELP? Reply to this Question

 Well lying to them wasnt the way to go and that was a mistake but you should tell her your parents how you feel about the situation and let them know that you are getting older and you are starting to make your own decisions. Dont keep things from them anymore because they are your parents and they deserve every right to know what their daughter is going through whether they approve of it or not. Show them that maybe having a boyfriend isnt so bad after all and just how smart and mature their daughter has turned out to be. Respect yourself as well as your family. Talk to them about it.

HOPE THIS HELPS
