How do I tell my parents about my boyfriend?

I meet this guy about three weeks ago at a party. we have been hanging out a lot and things are starting to look like it's going to turn into a relationship. there is just one problem I have. How do I tell my parents about him. they don't mind me dating it's just that he is 19 which is not that big of an age difference since I am 17, but I don't know how to tell them how we meet. they don't know that I still go to drinking parties after they told me to stop and I don't want to get in trouble. so what I need advice on is how do I tell my parents how we meet? I need help and fast.

Honesty is the best policy. Tell them you don't want to hide anything from them that's why you wanted to talk to them about something. Explain to them that you met this great guy. If they ask where you met him, tell them you went to a party. Let them know that you were wrong for disobeying them. And face the consequences. Learn from your mistakes. What's the worse that could happen. Your parents are trying to keep you safe. You should listen to them. Hope I helped.

If you really dont want your parents to know you went to a drinking party. Dont tell them, but in my experiences, telling your parents about guys, and telling them about drinking are two COMPLETELY different things. If it were me, I would tell them that I met a great guy, and if they ask where you met him, tell them something they wouldnt have a problem with, and something they already knew you went to.

thanks for the advice but I don't know how to bring it up with my parents about him and I don't want to be seening him behind their backs any longer. I need some help on how to start the conversation with them about us.

If you want to tell them so badly, just put it in a way that they won't freak out over. Tell them how much you like them and how great of a guy he is first. I would'nt tell them the age unless they ask. That way you won't be lying or anything like that. When and if they ask you, you should tell them the truth though

maybe just sit them down, and tell them you have to talk to them about something, then just tell them that you met a guy, and either tell them about the party, or make something up, and tell them that he is really great, and things are starting to look like a relationship.
hopefully they are okay with it.

good luck.

I told my parents last night and they totally fliped out. they aren't allowing me to see him or even talk to him again. they aren't allowing me to go out that much anymore because they think that everytime I go out that I will be seeing him in secert. I really like him and they won't even give him a chance.

wow.
I guess I underestimated your parents.
thats crazy.
I dont know what to tell you

did you tell them where you met him?

Well, with all honesty sweetie, you're kinda screwed if they aren't letting you go out anymore, I think really if you like him that much you can just stick to talking to him on the phone and stuff and try for a relationship when you turn 18, I don't see the big deal though with your parents, he's only two years older than you.....

I really want to be with Brian but my parents won't even give him a chance. he wanted to come meet them but they just refused and are not even giving him a chance. I won't care so much thatif they didn't want me seeing him after they meet him and didn't approve but they have never even meet the boy and it's not fair to him or me. how can I get across to them that I really like him and he makes me happy.

maybe you should tell your parents that if they wont let you see him now, you'll just do it when your 18.

allthough.
this could backfire.
they could do the 'as long as your under my roof my rules' thing.
but, if you are VERy serious about this guy, and you really want to be with him, and they say that as long as your living with them, then if you absolutely have to, I would move out.
or at least tell them your going to move out and see how they react.
I dont know your parents, and I dont know how they react to things.
but,
if it were me, thats how I would do it.

Well I really don't need to worry about my parents liking Brian anymore because this past Sunday when I called him around 10:30 in the morning to see what he was up to. he didn't answer the phone. his ex girlfriend Chelsey did. he was still asleep and she was unable to wake him up. when I finally got a hold of him like two hours later. he told me that it was all just this big joke to see how I would react and said it was his mom who answered the phone. I told him I am not stupid and can tell the difference between his mom and Chelsey's voice. I should have listened to my friends and not trusted him. thanks you guys for all the great advice you gave me but I don't need to worry anymore.
