mynameisnikki answered Saturday February 16 2008, 7:28 pm: The truth is, every mom is terrified about their daughter dating an older guy. The trick here is to get your mom to see the good qualities about the person you want to date, to get her on your level. I suggest that you let this guy meet your mom. Invite him over for dinner or something. Let them get to know each other more. The more your mom gets to know him, the more likely that she'll feel comfortable with you dating him. She'll realize how great this person is, dispite the age difference. I hope I helped. [ mynameisnikki's advice column | Ask mynameisnikki A Question ]

Ask if you can invite him over for dinner so she can met with him. If you can prove that you are both going to be mature and respectful of parental rules, she might be willing to lossen those rules.
You are fifteen darling, you don't nicely tell your mother very much, you nicely ask, and prove yourself worthy of what you ask for. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
