Question Posted Saturday November 14 2009, 7:00 pm
hi, my name is Caitlin and i am 14 years old. i will be 15 july 28. okay. i have had acrush on a boy since his first day of school. it was sort of obvious i liked him. even the teachers asked if we were dating. anyway... on the day of promotion he told me he liked me. i told him i liked him. he is not aloud to date til he is 16, but he acts like i should ask him out. on the day we got together with a whole bunch of friends he would put is head on my sholder and put his hands on my arms. he got really close to me and it made my stomach do flips. what should i do? ask him out or wait until he asks me when he is 16?

Now, if he disagrees with the rule which I'm assuming he does, why doesn't he just talk to them about it? If he tells them that there's a girl he really likes, and he's willing to take things slow (especially because you are both around 14 or 15 & shouldn't be moving fast to begin with), maybe they'll allow it.
I had the same rule that he had when I was 14 and I talked to my parents about a boy I liked and even brought him over so they could meet him. Once they saw he was nice, they really softened up to my suggestion, and I've been dating ever since. I'm 18 now. All he needs to do is talk to them calmly, and not through a fit, and maybe you can even meet his parents. :) Suggest that to him and see what he says. If he really likes you, maybe he'll be open to bringing it up with them. Good luck! [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
