I work as a Customer Laison Complaints Case Officer at a major insurance company, where I have worked for 3 years. I left school when I was 17, as I had some very bad experiences at school and wanted to see what the real world had to offer.
I now live with my boyfriend of 3 years and spend my spare time reading, writing, socialising with friends or just watching some TV.
Times are still hard and I'm trying to cope with various health problems on a daily basis but I'm working my way through things and really want to stop it from getting me down.
I dream of some day going to America and watching a real baseball game (we don't have that at all in the UK) and perhaps finding a job I find creatively fulfilling. Until then, I'm happy trying to be me and making the best of what I have.

In all honesty, there might not be anything you can say to them to make them let you be alone together. The truth is, it has nothing to do with you as a person or your boyfriend as a person. It's more to do with raging hormones and the two year-long relationship.
The problem is that you are now in that nice stage of your relationship where you will be very comfortable with each other and with hormones kicking in, you could very easily get carried away. This is no reflection on you as a person, but more an objective point about most people of either gender between the ages of around 15 and 19. It is extremely easy to get carried away and end up doing something your parents will regret!! It's not that they want to ruin your fun. It's just that with the very high teen pregnancy rates and with any potential you currently have for a future, they want to protect you against making a mistake that could potentially take your bright future away from you.
I know it might not seem this way, and you might think this very bad advice, but the best thing you can do for the moment is to tell your Mum (if you feel comfortable) that you are not having sex and do not intend to for a while yet, and until you turn 16 at least, do as your parents say. Ultimately, they will eventually give you some freedom if you hold off until you are of legal consenting age.
