Answer #1

I say that you should ask your parents if the three of you can sit downa dn have a serious conversation. Then that is when you explain to them that you are 19 and that means that you are an adult. Let them know nicely that since you are 19 you need your own space and just explain to them that you love them but you need to be happy for your self not for them so there for you and your boyfriend are staying together because you love each other so much. But you should try to phrase things in your own words. That is just some advice or help.

Answer #2

Your parrents will aventually accept him.. Id try to show them why you love him.. but im kinda curious.. why dont they like him?

Answer #3

there is not really much for them to not like him it is mostly that they don’t approve of him because he has not finished school and that’s it pretty much and I think that me changing in the mean time because I’m getting older they like to blame that on him. I’ve been trying to show them that I am getting older and I want them to lay off a bit but now totally sure how I can do it…
