Say this "Hey, mom and dad, you know how you've always wanted me to make new friends? You know how you're wondering when in the heck I'm going to find a girlfriend? Well, your worries are over now, and you can get some good sleep at night, knowing I've got a really cool girlfriend that digs me. And don't worry, I'll hold doors open for her and all that really polite stuff. And I'm not stupid enough to do anything really stupid and mess my life up. So thanks for raising me to be a smart cool guy with a head on his shoulders!"

just be honest and straight forward with your parents. they will understand and more or less be happy for you.
You could also do the whole "mom..dad.. i would like you to meet...(your girlfriends name)"
It will surprise them but Im sure they will be thankful for it. Not to sound mean, Im just a blunt person but they probably think your gay if you haven't even shown a little interest in girls around them yet. So they will be happy to know.
Just be honest and truthful and good luck!

I can understand why it is hard since you haven't shown much interest but i can tell you they're reaction will probably shock you they might even be happy if you haven't shown much interest then they might be glad to hear you have found someone. But really just tell them and don't make it out to be a big deal.

You shouldn't be nervous about it, I mean, they are your parents, I'm sure they will be really happy. I you don't want it to be a big deal just tell them randomly that your seeing someone and then when you feel more comfortable tell them shes your girlfriend, that way you wont drop it on them at once

Tell them like this, mom I met this awesome girl the other day and o btw shes my gf. If you dont want to talk about it then say these things as you walk away.

They are probably wondering when you are going to get one. They will be happy for you. Tell them you met a girl you like and want to start dating her and see what they say.

Invite your girlfriend over. And tell your parents that way. That was how I did it. My parents loved my first boyfriend. Things should be pretty easy. Good luck!!

I never thought I would say this but parents are right on the fact that they just want you to be able to talk to them about anything. It isn't easy to talk to them about this subject, but sitting down with them and talking is the best route.

it all depends on how much you like her. if its just a crush, had for a little, maybe you shouldnt tell them yet, icnase they think ur being too serious about it. but if u really want to tell them just bring her over one day and tell them this is my g/f ___name. im sure they will be happy u braught her over and introduced her properly

don't tell em. be a trapper and keep it on the low. so it looks like ur a newbie to the girl buisness. first thing u need to do is buy her a hairclip. girls LOVE hairclips. in two years, you get married, move to india, and live happily ever after. good luck lil guy
