I'm currently in a long distance relationship. I live in Connecticut, and my boyfriend lives in Virginia.
This past weekend, my boyfriend came up, and stayed here (in CT) for 3 nights. My mom and family really liked him.
We talked and the soonest I can see him again is January 18th-21st. He wants me to go to VA though. My problem is my mom. I'm a 16 year old girl, and my boyfriend is 17. I don't know how to convince my mother to let me go. She doesn't seem to be too easy about it. What could be some things that I can do to convince her I'd be fine on my own.
Shes talked to his father before, and I'm thinking that may be the deciding factor, but what can I say that is convincing? I've thought a lot about it, and I'm stuck.
If you want to convince her without her calling, write your mom a letter, but don't give it to her. Instead, you'll get all your ideas and points down on paper so when you go to talk to her, you won't struggle for ideas. Good luck and hope I helped!

You don't want to do too much "convincing" because that comes off as begging, which doesn't show much maturity.
