My mum was really strict about boys with me. She said i was not aloud to have a boyfriend untill i had a full career. Which i would be like 25 or something stupid. But when i told her about my current boyfriend and she met him, she really liked him. Hes practically part of the family now. I was 16 when i got with him. Tell them, and when they are ready they can meet him. As long as you stick to there guidlines and rules, they should be ok. Eventually when they feel they can trust him, there rules should become less strict. You just need to tell them, and let them relax to the idea. And also, you should always be safe if you are going to have sex.

why dont you sit down with your parents and tell them that you have recently started spending time with a guy you like WITH your friends.this way they wnt be as worried and explain that you would consider him your bf.ensure them that you are being responsible and maybe suggest inviting him over so they could meet him?they may feel more at ease if they meet this guy.you are at that age wen u are entitled to be in a relationship and ur parents shouldnt be smothering you and not letting you grow up.once you be honest with them and tell them were you will be they will trust you more and be happier.let me know how you get on??im dying to know!!good luck hun dnt be nervous jst honest xx
