Sorry, honey, they are your parents. Obey them. It sucks, lots of things in life do, but there will always be rules set by those above you, and, sadly, you must follow them.\nNo one ever said life is fair.

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!!!

I feel the best way to tell your parents is to just sit them down and tell them exactly how you feel about your boyfriend and since they're your parents I'm sure that they want you to be happy so be detail about how you feel and how content you are with your boyfriend, let them know toward the end of your conversation that he is black and let them know that you understand how they feel about you dating a black guy but you definitely think you can make your own decisions in choosing who you go out with. Basically, express yourself and your feelings but be very understanding and respectful at the same time.

Did you ever stop to think that your parents do think you are responsible and trustworthy, and that their reason for not wanting you to date is because they don't trust who you may end up dating? Maybe ask them about that?  Discuss options like taking a self defense class, prove to them that you can fend for your self and protect yourself if they are not there. Maybe becoming open with them and discussing dating... what you expect to happen when you date, what they expect... run through scenerios that you may find yourself in.... Find out their fears and concerns for you and work together with them on what you would do if you were in situations that they are concerned about.

You know your son. You know if he respects you as the authority figure he truly honors. You know in yourself if pleasing you is important and disappointing you is something he really does not want to do. If that is the case, as much as you are tempted, don't spy on him. Be ready in any case to intervene should things get inappropriate, if they do. On the other hand, if the relationship with your son is strained and he does not appreciate his parents, then the battle is already lost. If you move to spy or stop him, then he'll move the activity somewhere else where you are not.

Be aware of your differences, ask BF to teach you about his culture, be respectful, open minded, and celebrate the differences. And teach him about yours.\nI know most parents would pick someone culturally similar to their child, but more and more, parents just want their child to be happy. Ask the BF how he thinks his parents will react to your dating. It will give you a little insight about how he feels about you, too.\nGood luck.

I truly feel bad for you,but you need to see or search the reasons on why your parents feel the way they do towards him,i mean i would take some heed to their actions,remember they have more wisdom from age and experience.However,if they really don't have the facts to back their actions,this is something you will have to face with your parents.Always be honest with them no matter if they are not going to approve.You are an adult,and you need to let them know that you are not trying to hurt them by your choices of life,that you are trying to find your way and if it is a mistake,then you need to find that out as well.This is how wisdom comes,with experiences in our daily lives.One thing to remember is your parents have an unconditional love no matter what,just like you do for them.I just hope your boyfriend proves them wrong and doesn't make you regret any decision that you might make.Without family,we have nothing! I hope the best for you,Good Luck!

I don't know how old you are. You didn't say, but, you need to talk to your dad and if he doesn't want you to "date", then you need to do as he says, but, you talk about church. Talk to your dad about being able to do things as a church group(functions)with the boy you like. Or going for burgers with other friends included. See what he says

Do what you feel right for you. If you're sure this guy likes you back then you can fight it together. Does his parents know he's gay? If they do it'd be even better they can talk with you parents and let them understand.\n Just remember one thing: GOD DOESN'T HATE GAYS, no matter what anybody tells you just remember that sentence and you'll be just fine.\n\n I know exactly how you feel, I'm gay too and my parents doesn't know either and I'm really scared of telling them but I know I have to someday.\n\n If you're 100% you're gay then you have to tell them, you owe it to them, they need to know and then they'll decide. If you're still living with them then don't tell them until you move out so they won't kick you out.\n\n Hope everything works out good for you.\n  Keep in touch (Click on my name and then click "Contact Michael" if you would like to send me an email)\n         Chao                                  Peace

The main thing is that you want to be accepted by his family.\nNow that would not be hard for you I can tell you are a nice girl.\n1. Show a lot of respect for the father. \n2. The mother is the main one you need to win over smile at her when she looks at you .Tell her you are nervous . That will make her go easy on you. Say something nice about her. ( hair, eyes, dress, what ever you like but find something. Just her not the father.)\n3. As for boyfriend just show lots of respect for him like I'm sure you do everyone. \n4. If they ask; Do you love their son say yes if you do, they will like that .\n5. Talk to boyfriend about subjects that would cause problems beforehand.\n6. Nothing to low cut.\n7. Don't worry so much, conversations, money is not up to you you are the guess, they will pay. \nSlow down and you won't spill thing OK.\n\nGood luck I think they will love you.

I was in this situation before... my parents wouldn't allow me to date this guy. well, i dated him for 6 months behind their backs and when i graduated from high school, they said i could do whatever i wanted to do. so... i kept dating him. he then joined the army and we got married, had a 3 year marriage plus a little baby boy and well... to make a long story short... this guy was a complete bastard and had a very personal affair. ANYWAYS... I have learned one thing... it might sound stupid and nerdy but PARENTS USUALLY KNOW BEST!!! I'd listen to them. THEY HAVE THEIR REASONS!

I watched a lot of films: some parents are rich, some are bad (drink all day), and some own warm hearts...\n  I used to dream I have perfect parents. Now I know it's just a dream...\n   I love my parents. They give me this life, give me my body.  In Orient, when children grow up, they must to support maintain their parents.\n Think about your mom, your dad, and understand them.

Sometimes it's a good idea to let your Boyfriend meet your parents before you actually go on a date with them (just to assure them that you'll be fine with him)\n\nNext, make sure you tell her about what you guys did, it'll help your parents trust you more if they know what you've done in the past and will be a little better at not holding you back.\n\nNext, don't date people your parent's wouldn't approve of.\n\nAnd if it all fails and your parents don't approve of your date, have your date come over to your house and hang out for a while under your parent's supervision. Most parent's would rather you be under their supervision rather than out there with another guy.

Well first of all, his mother isn't the one controlling his feelings. \n\nIf you love him and really care for him then your best bet is to talk with him about whats going on. Ask him if he does care about you! \n\nDepending on your age and his age, its hard to say whether this will work or not because if you're young, it will be hard to see one another without the parents but if you're older... you can definitely still see each other, who's stopping you!? No one! Go with your heart and tell him to do the same. GOOD LUCK!

Mormons are asked not to watch R-rated movies because of the inappropriate content in them.  That would be why your boyfriend wouldn't watch certain movies.  Nothing's 'up' it's their beliefs and if you don't like it, no one's forcing you to accept them.  Just live and let live, savvy?
