well maybe you could reassure her by saying that you will call her right when the movie is over and if anything happens that made you feel uncomfortable then u will tel her

You have to remember that your parents are just being cautious. Since it' your first date why not have a group date a few times. You might learn that this person is not the dating type before you have to be alone together. Or maybe it will reassure you and your parents that he is trustworthy. And be sure you talk to your parents about what they're expectations are and try to compromise, they will love you for that (even more tham they already do)!

Oh, it's not that your parents aren't okay with it...they're just sad to see their little girl growing up! Listen--my 16-year-old son started his first job last week, and as I watched him walking into his workplace, I sat there and laughed and cried at the same time!!! See how weird us parents are?
Just try to be understanding and give your parents time to get used to it. Maybe they could also meet the boy you're going out with, that might make them feel better.

well how old are you, if you're 14 or younger i could see why you're parents are concered, you MIGHT want to try to go on a group date, or maybe have a date at home by renting a movie, and just watching it on the couch and maybe after the movie, maybe go outside and lay under the stars, IF YOUR PARENTS SAY NO FOR SURE.
but if you're 15 or older, i think it'd be fine. try having you and your date talk to your parents one-on-one, or maybe ask your parents if there's a was you can show them you're old enough, and they can trust you!
hope i have helped!
let me know how it goes!

You will always be mommy and daddy's little girl so it is their job to be concerned. I agree that they should meet your friend to ease their concerns. By the way, I use to be a young guy going on a date and I never viewed it as "a nice little innocent one". I always had devlish motives.

well having been in your situation recently, i can tell you that parents will be parents but they will cave. just ask them if they trust you, that they were young once and you and the guy are just seeing a movie nothing more nothing less, nothing to be read into it. they might be more comfortable meeting him first, it might help.. it will be fine, my parents caved and i got to go andthey haven't had a problem since.

Why don't you invite your friend over so your parents could meet him? Your parents would be least worried to atleast know this guys face.

Parents are always a little worried... but curiously, you never said how old you actually were???
