I don't know what to do my boyfriend said he was coming today to introduce his self to my parents. I told my parents about it and they said they don't want to meet him because they think he's a thug and that they think he is some older guy.My boyfriend said he is going to come anyways regardless because he wants to talk to them. I am really scared he may show up and my parents are going to be mad at both of us. We our both 16 years old and this is the first time a boy wants to meet my parents. I try to talk things out about it to my parents but they didn't listen to me. What do i do when he comes by im really nervous?

There is nothing you can do at this point hon.Just wait and see what happens.Think about this though, both your parents have been where you are and learned from it, they also see your potential b/f's for what they REALLY are and not what you fantasize them to be.You have to remember, your hormones dont always allow you to be honest with yourself.Trust your parents judgment when it comes to guys, you wont be sorry.

I know what your parents are feeling...I've been there. I have an older daughter that is 21 and I can remember when she was 16, she too, wanted me to meet her boyfriend. I didn't want to meet the boy because I didn't like the fact that my daughter was growing up and I'm sure your parents may feel the same way. It takes a lot of guts for your boyfriend to want to meet your parents and also knowing the don't want to meet him. I admire your boyfriend for that, and for you, don't be nervous...just talk to your parents again and just let them know that your trying to do the right thing in keeping an honest and open relationship with them and not going behind there back. Let them know how much it means to you and how their openion means a lot to you, but you just want them to give your boyfriend a chance.

Let your boyfriend handle it. Good for him that he has both the courage and desire to meet and talk to your parents even though they think poorly of him. He must really like you if he is willing to go through this uncomfortable and awkward conversation. Just stand by and listen. Answer if you are asked any questions, but mostly let your boyfriend intiate any conversation.
