should i stay with him?


Question Posted Sunday January 23 2005, 5:30 pm

okay, i'm 15 i've been dating chris for over a year. he's a year older than me and my parents really trust him now and everything, and we've been having sex for like six months. he doesn't let me wear skirts and stuff like that though.

but i don't really want to be with him anymore, i'm really interested in this other guy brett, so i broke up with chris. but my parents said i couldn't date anyone else but chris because they trust him! i got back together with him now.
how can i get my parents to let me date brett..or should i stay with chris?

<3,
sareta

Let me put it bluntly, because after I am going to just blabber away:
At this point, the last thing you need is to be dating anyone.
Now for the blabber. Your parents should allow you to make your own decisions, but since they won't, you need to tell them that it doesn't matter that they trust Chris, because Chris doesn't even trust you enough to wear skirts (that is a really bad sign, by the way). After such a long and intense relationship, you don't want to bounce into another one because you will find that how you feel about the new person will fade. Initially, you will have just compared the new person to Chris which probably made him seem great, when really, he might not be. Take some time to be boyfriendless, don't stay with Chris if you have reasons to break up with him, and don't distance yourself completely from your parents by dating someone that they don't approve of.
Be boyfriendless, spend some time with just friends, and show your parents that you are mature enough to make your own decisions.
