AuTy answered Sunday April 25 2004, 6:55 pm: Well if it was me..lol.. then i would go for it if you really like this guy, you only live once..but if you are the type who respects your parents wishes then continue to be friends with him and explain the problem if he really likes you then he'll understand. Or explain to your parents wat kind of guy he is and that u really like him and he isnt like his brother. Maybe they'll understand but then again you kno how parents are....

If he asks you out, and you really like him, then go to a movie or restauarant with him and some other people. Your parents might not mind if its not just the two of you.

spacefem answered Sunday April 25 2004, 3:50 pm: You might not want to go out with him, if his brother does drugs, hate to say it. If you ever go to his house and the cops show up to get his brother on drug charges, you're an accomplice, they can pick you up too. If you go out with him, be very careful.

Gabi143 answered Sunday April 25 2004, 3:45 pm: Well, I suggest you should go out with him and not tell your parents. Try not to tell him about this. Straighten everthing out with everyone a little later, like wen he really likes you and nothing could make u break p unless its extremely bad and when your parents se ur happy and he's harmless. Try your best, good luck

Also, your parents do not nessisarily hold sway over every aspect of your life, but its possible that they are concerned that this guy is going to become like his brother, and they don't want thier daughter to get hurt.
So, talk to your parents, and you prospective about your concerns, and take it from there.
