my parents are "curious" to know who i have been texting lately, so they asked the phone company to send them a list of everyperson i have message and who messaged me and what time etc.,
all of my numbers are like normal innocent i have nothing to hide...
except ONE certain person's number who lives far away ahem ahem, so in the midst of local numbers my parents see an odd looking phone number, how do i explain that?? or am i screwed

Sam, sooner or later you are going to have to tell them what's going on ....if you are deceitful not only do you risk your r'ship with " the man " but you will lose the trust of your parents as well.
You might like to ease them into it ...you know , a little bit of grease goes a long way ! Don't just go & blurt out the whole story in one hit but feed them little bits to get them used to the fact.
Best of luck...

Samsouma, i was your age once, and i got caught not by long distance calls, nope, by them knowing i have a BF at a young age, now what i realized back then, was that if i told them the truth, it's much better than lying, because as you know, the rope of lies is a short one!!
BUT, if you don't want them to know, and your family are strict, well all you can do is tell them, that a friend you met online which is a female, and u talk together.
Let Gbone give his mobile to a any female friend, and let her answer, or let him turn off the phone for like 2 weeks. LOL, say she travelled for vacation :P

Hit the "proverbial nail" on the head. You will be better off by putting your information forward first. Long distance calls are not cheap. Anyway, why can't the other person pay for long distance calls? What's up with that? Have discernment in whatever path you take, I wish you well.

I hope your realize that all they have to do is to call that phone number and see who answers at the other end. It isn't that hard. Just own up to the phone call and offer to pay for it. Or, if it isn't a person you are suppose to be talking to, you are in trouble.

Your parents have a right to know who you are calling from their home. If they persist, they will find out.

The truth is the best way, lying just makes things worse. Plus I don't think there is really any other way to explain it other then you dailed it.
