problem 1: i have bad habit of geting into video game, i do good in school but video games re slowly making that fade away, i am adicted and i dont know how to stop, i stoped doing homework and need advice.
problem2: i am going out with my gf for 8 months soon and i love her very much but my parents are against it, i want to change that but they wont understand, it all started when my gf gave me her hodie to remember her by and i gave her my shirt, they took that as an insult, i dont know why then when my gf gave me more expensive gifts(worth 500 dolars) they took that as insults, i love her but my parents hate her, they think i will have a kid by acident and ruin my life, they think i am changing, they dont know why i am upset and its because of them, i wont have a kid by acident because we dont even think of doing that until we are both 21/22 and have a job, we both agreed to not to do it until we are 21/22 but it is pointless telling my parents that cause they dont understand :(

Well, spend less time on video games do something more constructive like volunteering or more studying time. I assume that you are a student.
With your girlfriend situation, if you really like her follow your heart. I can tell you by experience that my parents didn't like this fellow I dated at the time and his didn't like me. Unfortunately, we are no longer together and he is living in Texas, but that was a decade ago. Sometimes I do wonder if our parents didn't interfere what would have become of our relationship (marriage, long term dating. who knows?) Don't rush into this relationship just enjoy each others company. Both of you are very young and don't rush into anything rash .
I hate to tell you this but if you are under 21 and still live under their roof; they have a right to express their concern about you spending money on a extravagant gift such as an expensive shirt. Your parents probably mean well. They are maybe jealous of the girl. Sometimes parents don't take the time to get to know their child's significant other.. I wish you two the best. Just don't rush it. Maybe in time, your gf will grown on them.
Good Luck Happy New Year

Show your parents how grown up and mature you are and they will accept your girlfriend and any other decision you want to make. Right now your parents are watching your actions and questioning your judgement.
Do your parents buy your clothes? When you traded clothes with your friend you should have consulted your parents. They aren't investing money in your friends.
Your parents are witnessing your grades slip for the sake of a video game. That simply sounds immature and unnecessary. Stop playing the games until you know your homework is done, your assignments are written and you are prepared for the next school day. Get plenty of sleep, too. Sleep makes a difference in how we perform on tests.
Once your parents see that you are taking charge of yourself and making good decisions, then they may have a new appreciation for your girlfriend.
Prove to your folks that they have it all wrong!

Sit down and talk with your parents. Have they met your gf? It may be that your parents are worried that you are growing up and they don't want to accept it. A gift worth $500 is too expensive for anyone, especially a young person. Maybe your parents see something that you don't? Do they feel you are being "bought"? Listen to them, they have experience. But above all, talk with them, not to them. And make them listen to you. Sounds weird, but schedule a time where you can talk with them. Maybe get them to go to a coffee shop or somewhere, and then open up to them. Parents are part human, too. Listen to their pros and cons. Write down your pros and cons. Maybe they see your grades going down because of your gf. Get away from the video games, pick up a GOOD book and get back to the homework to show your parents you are responsible. But above all, be open and honest with your parents. They will always be there for you and they want what is best for you.

Because you are looking to hard and in all the wrong places. When you go out with your friends are you having fun with them or is your mind trying to see what male attention you can get? If you are more concerned with the men around you, it shows... trust me. If you really want to find a guy let them come to you when you least expect it. Get yourself involved in your life, find a hobby and meet new people, even if it is just a friendship relationship. Once you are enjoying life and those around you, you will find the one right for you. Just take things one day at a time and live life, dont be concerned so much about finding someone.

problem 1: make up a time line. where u can have enough time to do yoUr home work.
Problem 2: ur parents might think that that u r not doin ur home work cause of ur gf. i know that they mean no harm.i also think that it's g8 u took responsibility for ur actions, by getting a job instead of asking 4 money.Also tell ur gf not to give you expensive gifts, cause u can't afford 2 pay her back, then when u got enough money, start the gifts again!

I suggest that you ask your parents why they are taking these gifts as insults. If they refuse to have that talk, then you have to tell them that if they won't give YOU a reason why they don't like your gf, then THEY have no right to tell you if they like her or don't or to intrude in your relationship.
As for your video game thing, I think that you should take to doing healthier hobbies that take place outdoors. Good luck.

They're worried. If you show irresponsibility for a video game, they are terrified that you will show the same for this girl. I suggest chucking the xbox and getting your act together for a few weeks. Otherwise, don't worry about it.

You are spending too much time living in your fantasy world. Wake up before it is too late.
