Ok, so I'm almost going out with this guy (he likes me, i like him, so we're deff gonna go out). I've never officially gone out with a guy, so my parents are used to me hanging out with anyone except my female friends. What are some ways to approach this to them? I am 15, almost 16, and hes 16, almost 17. I am mature and I get good grades and excel at my sport, so I feel as if I'm ready. I just need help getting my protective dad to let go. Any ideas?
Also, my brother for some reason doesnt like the kid im about to go steady with, how can I convince him too that hes a good kid. He's told me to stay away from him and that he's a poser and I really, really know that he's not. I've been with him a few places and he's really sweet. Okay, enough with that, what do you think of this whole thing? Thanks for reading this :-)

Perhaps you should take their opinions of the fella into consideration, maybe they can see what you can't and maybe this guy is no good for you. What reason would they have to warn you about someone other than to protect you? And you have to be aware that if you have sex with this guy, it statutory rape. Best to listen to your family and find someone better, no guy is worth an ounce of trouble, and the chances of this guy being the one you marry are slim to none, so let him go.

ok the first thing you need to do if to get this guy to meet your parents and he really needs to suck up to them and kiss their butt . the reason is because your parents are going to see whether or not this guy deserves to go out with you . and also you need to argue the reasons why you think hes good enough . and for christ's sake ! your 15 and this is gonna be your first official bf ! they should at least take that into consideration. just tell them how you feel about this guy . i hope this helps . good luck !

just try talking to them. ask for a trial period. once they see the guy isn't going anywhere they'll relax a bit more
