Boyfriend's parents. Hey YG. I need your expertise, if it's not too much to ask =)
I'm sixteen, female. I'm dating a wonderful guy, for a little over two months now. My parents absolutely LOVE this guy. We see each other all the time (well as much as we can, this equates to a couple times a week because we go to different schools, but anyways) He's seventeen. Age difference doesn't bother us, OR our parents. He's not in it for sex, and I know he's telling the truth because I know his best friends, and he's just not that kind of guy.
One problem. His parents think I'm using him for sex. Now, it's quite out of the blue for them to think this, because I don't come off as that type of girl at all. I make an effort to talk to them, and I'm not rude or disrespectful. When my boyfriend told me this, both of our reactions was, essentially, WTF.
How can I go about convincing his parents that I'm not using their son, and I'm not a shallow bitch like his ex (another problem)? Our families are having dinner together soon. Will that help too?

I'm sure your families having dinner together
will help. Its going to be a matter of time more
than anything I think. They didn't tell him
not to date you so that is good. They aren't
completely sure they are right!
Continue like you are. You really can't
do much else. Don't dress provocatively
if you know you are going to be seeing them,
be real conservative until they get to know you.
Not saying you do, just a tip.
I'm going to guess this might be something
his ex got them thinking about. It will take
some time but if he cares for you they will
come around eventually. :) ]
