Question Posted Thursday September 15 2005, 8:28 pm
basically, ive liked/ been in love with this guy for a little over a year now and my father s him because the guy has somewhat of a juvinile record. and me and my dad dont get along anyways. even though me and my dad have our disagreements i still would like approval but i havent even told my dad im going out with the guy yet, weve only been going out for a month but have liked eachother forever. my parents know that ive liked him but they think its only out of rebellion. i plan on spending the rest of my life with this guy and i turn 18 in about 4 months. should i wait til then to tell them even though i know their feelings wont change. i dont even know what im asking.. just for advice i guess. i love him with all of my heart and would do anything for him. and hes what makes me happy i just wish my parentals could understand!!!!! how should i go about telling them???

i hope i helped you! good luck [ babyll873's advice column | Ask babyll873 A Question ]

A "somewhat of a" juvinile record does not sound very good at all, I can't blame your parents for disapproving, and they aren't disapproving to hurt you, they are afraid of you getting hurt. And, your last few words are only telling me that you love each other and you're full of happiness, and that should be good enough of a reason to be together. Let me tell you, it doesn't work that way. Right now may seem so perfect, but later on, love won't save you. You need to listen to your parents, I can't make you listen to them and try to get more of their opnion, but you should.
Spark120 answered Thursday September 15 2005, 9:07 pm: i think you should just flat out tell them...they're going to take it the way way if you make this long speech or just a "you know that __ guy? well...we're going out and i really love him" < that kinda stuff. And i mean you said your turning 18 soon...i think you should be allowed to make your own desicions...especially if you think you want to spead the rest of your life with him...
