Anyway, my parents used to hate the idea of my guy friends coming over just to come over, for band practice, us going to movies, etc. All I can suggest is to just tell them how much you trust your friends, and that you absolutely know for a fact that they wouldn't harm you in any way. Tell them that the reason you don't really have any girl friends that want to go is that most girls your age are stuck-up and snobby. My parents felt that if I trusted them that much, that they must be ok. Although, they did make me invite them over so they could meet them and stuff before I could go with them. But hey, at least you'll be able to go! (hopefully).
I hope this advice helps you, but as always, if this isn't enough, feel free to ask me for additional advice via email, private question, or AIM.

clearlypink428 answered Tuesday July 26 2005, 1:56 pm: this sounds all way too familiar. when i lived with my parents- things were exactly the same. they respected me having nuthing but guy friends- but only for a few days- then if i still wanted to hang out with them 3 more days in a row- they'd make a big deal out of it. my dad always stood up for me- but my step-mom would always make a bigger deal out of it than it really was. in other words- i know exactly what ur goig thru- and it sux. i could tell you what i did, but thats the wrong answer. really- in all seriousness- explain to them that you just want to have fun- and you have a lot of fun with your boys. explain to them that all the girls have boyfriends or whatnot, and they want to go out on ther own, or watever the reason may be that they cant come with. watever you do- DONT get upset if they dont let you go- if you get upset about it- your parents will assume that something's going on between you and these guys that you have to see them so bad. and you dont want to lose your guy friends because of your parents. just be calm, and talk to them about it. as long as you get your point across- they should understand. hope i helped. good luck, and HAVE FUN! *~aim~* mikelly4039 [ clearlypink428's advice column | Ask clearlypink428 A Question ]
