Question Posted Sunday January 30 2005, 11:52 pm

i'm almost 17 years old and my boyfriend just turned 15...we've only been dating a couple weeks, but everytime he asks to do something with me, his mom makes up some excuse or another not to let him go...i realize that he's younger and everything, but i don't understand why she won't ever let him be with me...i just can't take it...i really care about him, but i always want to have a boyfriend that i'll be able to do things with and go places with...i don't know what to do because i don't think i'll be happy either way :(

Dear Age Difference,


Love knows know color just as it knows no age. Love is a wonderful emotion that can overcome any obstacle.


But the only way to achieve perfect love and perfect trust is through communication.


If you and your boyfriends mother do not get along because she feels you and your boyfriend are too different in age, then you must respect her feelings. Perhaps she doesnt think you two have anything in common. Show her that you do.


Have you spent very much time with his mother? Did you give her time to get to know how wonderful you are? If not, then this should be your first step. It is very important that you and the family of your relationships get along. If you are serious about the way you feel for this boy, make sure you are able to bond with his family.


Id advise you to spend an hour or two at his house every now and then. Let his mother know that you are serious about your relationship with her son. As a mother she is already naturally over protective, you must understand this. Be willing to show her that she is not the only person who cares about this boy. You obviously care very much about him as well.


You might even try talking to her directly (if you try and convince your boyfriend to speak to her it will only prove that you are not mature enough to handle your own situations much less your own relationships). Tell her you care very much about her son and your only concern is for his happiness. Tell her you are serious about him and you dont mean for your relationship to cause her any worry.


If you are serious, mature, and capable of having a relationship then be sure and prove it. You must also keep in mind, that just because you are able to convince your boyfriends mother that you two can have an honest relationship doesnt mean that either of you are off the hook just yet. You both must continue to prove your maturity.


Love knows no boundaries but communication does. Talk out your problems.


Best of Luck,


She Screams.
