Hey Im 17/and female and have been asked out on what i would call my offical 1st date. My problem is how do i go about asking my parents if i can go? I haven't known this guy long but want to get to know him and see if its something that is going to last before i introduce him to my parents. But my parents are the type who want to meet everyone i have interest in! Guys have often came over and my parents did't really mind. But this is an official date of hanging out all day. And not to mention he is a sweet nice Hispanic and i am white. So this poses as a problem for me. 1. How do i go about asking if i can go and 2. how do i tell them he is hispanic.
Thanks for any advice you can give!
The best way to do it would be to tell them you've met someone new that you're interested in and he's asked you out on a date. Tell them that you want to be sure that the relationship is going to go somewhere before you bring him over to meet them. Besides, you don't want to scare him off. Remind your parents that meeting the parents for the first time can sometimes be quite scary. They were your age once and went through the trials of dating. They will remember.
Unless your parents are prejudiced, there shouldn't be a problem with him being Hispanic. Tell your parents that he's Hispanic and let them know that you understand the issues that may come from dating him. Parents may try to protect you from being hurt, but by you telling them up front that you understand the issues will make them a little more comfortable.
