First of all, don't get into a secret relationship and disobey your family. Be open and honest with both them and the guy that is interested in you.
Second, talk to your parents and explain that there is this boy that you are interested in, and he is interested in you. Come to a concensus with them, discuss curfew, ligetimate locations to go to, ask them what issues they have against dating, ask why they suggest you not date, ask them what they concider to be a good boyfriend, what are their stipulations. this discussion should not be confrontational, it should be mature, no arguements, just mature and open to discussion, and opinion on both ends.
After showing that you are mature enough to sit and discuss this with them, they may realize that you are mature enough to have a relationship.
Again do not fight the issue, discuss the issue, and compromise.
When your parents have given you their thoughs, you might want to suggest to them meeting the young fellow that you are attracted to. If he comes across as also being mature, they may let you date.
Of course keep in mind that they may have very firm ideas towards this issue, and may not change their minds, be open, and do not fight their decision, you come out being the bigger person.
Hope this helps,
Gigi

i was in the same situation as you are in and my strong suggestion is not to lie to them because if they find out that you were doing something like that behind their back they will be furious. you might want to bring the subject up to your parents and see what they thing is wrong or right as well as ask them when the proper age they think is for you to date and show them that you are responsible.

it matters on your age......but if your above the age 15 yea i would think you could start a relationship....but i would wait until you are sure you want a BF.......and just listen to your parents if they still say no after you explain your reasons....and to do a good job in explaining your self i would first brainstorm what your going to say......but after all that they still say no just listen...dont argue....argueing leads to worst things....and dont rebel...youll regret it.....your parents know what they are talking about they were your age too......they just want to protect you....good luck

Show your folks a handful of your pubic hair. That'll make them realize that you're not their little girl anymore. This works all the time.

obey the rules --- also find out at what age you can have a boyfriend --- if they are being unreasonable --- voice your concerns/objections do this in a polite manner.

Introduce them to him. It might be a little weird but if he wants to go out with you he'll do it.
