I have a boyfriend and im actually a really responsible person and they have no reason not to trust me. But they wont let me go to the movies with him. He's not a bad guy. My parents have met him and they like him. Anyone know why they might be doing this?

How old is your boyfriend? I wasn't allowed to start dating until I was 16 years old. Maybe you should ask them when you will be allowed to date.
They are your parents...remember they love you and are trying to protect you. Yes, it does stink at times, but they are doing what they think is best for you. Just go to them and calmly ask when you will be able to go out with your boyfriend.

You don't state your age, how long they have known him, what his age is , does he work? Is he originally from your area, if this is your first date, and who says they don't trust you? Why not invite him to your house with the parents permission to watch a movie? How long have you kown him? You state he's not a bad guy. What constitutes a bad guy, and a good guy? I believe today with all these women we see in the news that are married and all of a sudden they find them dead,and that their husbands were their killers should open the eyes of many young girls and women, that their most trusted and closest friend in their case, the ones they love!!! turned out to be responsible for taking the lives. Don't be so quick to judge your parents, we only want to protect our children and make sure they are happy and safe. God Bless and God Luck!!

You never stated your age. If you are 17 or older, you do have a case, and I agree that your parents should trust you out on a date. If younger than 17, they have a point in that as much as they like your boyfriend, they understand that there might be more than just going out to the movies involved.
Perhaps if they allowed adult charperones (like themselves or other trusted adults) to go with you both, they can see their way to compromise for you to go out at night with your guy. Good luck!

well they have every reason with the media today.. and shows about girls getting pregnet at a young age, and boyfriends turning abusive... ur parents have that right... to react that way at first!.
My advise to you is to get ur parents to know ur bf for a bit.. invite him over to hang out with u and introduce him to your parents.. (mainly ur dad cause dads are usually the most strictest when it comes to boys, if u live with ur dad).. and have them ask questions so they get a feel on what his intentions are and what hes like.. and then maybe have ur parents set up a time like when u should be home by etc with ur bf and u.. once they have that trust with ur bf and u they will probably go easy with the two of u.
oooh my bad u said ur parents have met him and like him.. well just set a arrangment with ur bf and u and ur parents and maybe u guys can work out a curfew and stuff.. that may work.. if it doesnt u got to prove to them that u guys can last and that its not just a 1 time thing.. like at least 5 months or more.. then go back to them and ask them..

Parents just want the best and they make rules to help you out. i know this sounds like ughhh but its true.
see.... maybe you can compromise with them, go to the movies wit your friends and your boyfriends. ask them why they wont let you go to the movies. Show them that you are responsible. Tell them nothing is going to happen.
hope i helped.

let them sit in the back row the first time, show them nothings happening but u 2 watching a movie. the next time see if you can go by yourselfs. How old are you would have helped too.

Would it have anything to do with the fact that you are probably 13? It is the only reason that people have kids, so that as parents they can ruin their kids' lives.

Because it's their rights as parents to be able to protect you from people who they think might hurt you.
You should sit down with them sometime and ask yourself. That's the best way to get an answer. :]

Well, Blondie, how old are you?
edit: Hmmm...15 seems old enough to date and they've met him also. Although I don't particularly think you are too young, maybe your parents still do.
