Perhaps you could ask her indirectly. Carefully crafted words are the key here to achieving your desired goal.....having a boyfriend. Okay, step 1) find a time when you and your mother are relaxing, no phones, dinner is finished, house is clean. 2) Begin the conversation like this: "You know Mom, I am now ___ years old, and I was wondering if you would allow me to go to the movies with _____________. I know you have not had an opportunity to meet ________, but I can invite him by the house on _________. He is a really nice guy. Now, if you do not have a boyfriend, and no prospects, then I would suggest that you address your mother in this manner: Mom, I have really matured over the last year and I would like to respectfully request permission from you to go on a date occassionally with a carefully selected boy that I will bring home first for you to meet.  Don't be shy about it. Be assertive, without being pushy. Tell her what your heart desires, and do it in a kind, courteous, confident and mature manner. The way you approach this request to have a boyfriend is important. You have to let your mother know that you are ready for this big step in your young teenage life. \nNow, be honest in your evaluation of yourself here okay? Think! Really think here! And answer my question truthfully! Question: Have you been on your best behavior over the last year? Have you done everything that has been asked of you by your mother? Have you gotten into any serious trouble lately? Did you make good grades and behave appropriately in school? These questions are important, because if you have been cutting up and acting like a trifling little hoochie mama, it is highly likely that your mother will say no. But if you have been a perfect angel, and behaved appropriately over the last year, then I dont see any reason that your mother will not agree to your terms. Also, let her know that any boy you meet, you will bring them home to meet her, and your curfew is 9p.m. weeknights and 10:30 on weekends. Or, if your curfew is later than this, use your current curfew. Well, I hope this helps. Best wishes to you. And have fun.

15 is a reasonable age to be dating. I started at around that age. I would not let her date anyone more than three years older than her and would prefer any boys 18 years of age to be Seniors in high school. When she is 18 she can do what she wants but until then she is my daughter and I will do what I need to in order to keep her safe!! Of course meeting the "date" is a must and there will be rules such as what time to be home, and letting her know she can call me for ANY reason if she needs to no matter what the time or where she is!!

yeah sure it looks that way. just don't jump the gun and get mad at your mom. this could all be unavoidable. just tell her you really want to come up and for her to not make any plans to prevent your visit. If she still continues to have excuses...i dunno, try talking to your dad about it. maybe he'll talk to your mom about the way it's affecting you.

Honey your 14 relax. If your interested in girls then just consider "casual dating." Giver her some flowers or candy. Ask your parents to take you guys to a movie and dinner afterwards, just remember that you are still young and don't need to be doing anything more than hanging out.

What exactly is a date now a days? Go to the movies?Group or one-on-one? Call themselves dating but never leave their own houses? Having sex? All these questions carry different age levels with them. And maturity levels. Unfortunately for us parents there really aren't any tried and true rules to follow.\n\nGood luck ! I know I need it! Mine are 15,13,13,11..........URGH!!!!!

You do need to have a long talk with her first.  You can't keep putting youself out there only for her to reject you because of her parents.  She's an adult.  She can make her own decisions.  How does SHE feel?  You have obviously made an effort to better yourself so she'd be dumb to reject you again.\n\nAs far as the proposal goes...take her to do something your both like to do... hiking, travel to a destination...something...choose your moment and pop the question.

I'm going to hazard a guess based on your typing and grammar and say that you're under 15 or so... and in that case particularly (but at any age really) mom's usually know what they're talking about.  I know it sucks to hear that, but trust me, it's true.  (I'm 19, btw.. I've been there very recently, so I'm not out of the loop here.)\n\nWhat you should do is sit down with your mom and say "Hey mom, I don't want to get in to an argument about this, but I really want to know what it is you don't like about ____."  Listen to what she has to say.  Most importantly, do not get defensive.. the minute you start yelling at each other, you don't stand a chance of working things out.  Take the points she makes (and ask her to be specific.. point out specific examples of how he's controlling, not just say that he is) and think about them for a day a so.  Tell a close friend (*not* your boyfriend, very important) what she said and see what they think.\n\nIf after that you still think she's wrong, tell her you really thought about it and got a friend's perspective on it, but you don't agree with her, and ask her to respect your opinion.  That being said, do not disobey your mom.  Boyfriends come and go.  Your mom will always be your mom and it's more important than you can possibly imagine to keep a good relationship with her.\n\nAnd, as an aside, just my personal opinion, if you are young, as I guessed, you really don't need to date one person for that long.  I dated the same guy from the age of 14 to 17, and thought it was great at the time, but now, I really wished I wouldn't have done that.  It's kind of hard to explain, but just take it from someone who's been there.

hey I'm 16 and i used to have the same problem, i mean I'm single now but my advice worked on my ex. : Just Be Yourself. any girl would be stupid to not go out with someone just because they don't want to give them a chance. I give everyone a chance and the way i see it is if they don't like me for me then i need to move on to someone who will. Just try talking to her about things she and you have in common. It will work just give it time.

You don't say no. You tell them that you are flattered and that you like them to, but that you are not allowed to date anyone because you're parents still think you are too young. \n\nThe truth in this situation really is the best way to go because you don't want him to think that you don't like him.

You can't make her go out with you,just start talking to her more...little by little.Give her sometime to see the real you! Good Luck!

Sometimes, you just have to go.  You can't live your mothers life for all of yours.  You are 20 yrs old...it's time to get out and figure out what YOU want in life.  She might be upset, but chances are, she won't really disown you.

No, you should not ask him out.  Go read a book get your minds off these almost grown men.  I think it's time you had a little talk with your mother.

I've been in your same situation when i was younger. with my parents i told them some of the nice things that this guy did, that let them know that he was nice. Ask this guy to meet them. Not really at the house at first, but maybe at a park or a school activity. Then he won't be so nervous. Tell your mom first. Mom's are always easier. Dads will understand eventually. Don't say date or anything yet, say hanging out or something like that, then after a while say casually in a conversation with your parents how your friends think that you and _your guys name__ are such a cute couple. or something like that. that will be easier. if they are really strict just say that this guy is your special guy. hope i helped!!!

The only thing you have to consider is where you are living.  Yes, you're 18 and an adult but if you are still living under your mother's roof then you need to follow her rules.  Still, there's no reason that you can't talk to her like an adult and explain that you would like some more freedom.  The biggest part of this is how much she trusts you.  If you've given her reasons to think that you can make good decisions then you're likely to get what you're looking for.  If you've shown her you can't, she's likely as not to tell you to follow her rules.

Aww, just go out with the boy you like.  Either wait until he breaks up with blackhead girl, which he will I promise, or get together alone with him and put the moves on him.\n\nIt's not very fair of your parents to impose dating restrictions on you.  When you bring him home, just tell your parents that you are - bestest friends, forever and ever! -.  Hang out with him in groups of people who are also couples, like group dating.  Then you can split off from the group after a while and go make out or engage in some heavy petting, or whatever fun thing teenagers' libidos drive them to do.

Sorry your only 12, way too young to be thinking about dateing. Your mom is a smart woman, listen to her. Her reasons are the only thing that matters. Ask her again when your lets say... 15? .. plus boys are morons at that age.. dont ruin your outlook on men at such a young age.. wait
