Ok here it goes...I have a boyfriend but I'm not supposed to have one but I really like him and it feels like love....he says it too...it's been about 3 months since we were girlfriend and boyfriend. He says that i'm the one for him and he says it so serious. I want to be with him for the rest of my life too. There's only one problem right now,,,actually there is several.
We barely see eachother and we don't go to the same school either because he's homeschooled. Anyways he is also 16 and i am just 13 and I need to know a way to tell my parents about this because eventually they're going to find out. My boyfriend and I want to tell them, but we're also scared of what my parents would say because i'm not allowed to date and because he's 3 years older than me. The main thing is I need to know how to tell my parents about this.

Broach the subject about you having a hypothetical boyfriend. If they fly off the handle, you know that they will forbid the whole thing. Another tactic is to tell your parents that most girls your age that aren't allowed to have a boyfriend, do anyways and just lie about it. Or you can tell them you are thinking about having a boyfriend and you don't feel like you can be honest with them about it because they aren't willing to compromise. I can tell you right now that they aren't going to be down with the fact that he is 16, and this whole thing could backfire and you could find yourself without any freedom. Also, you are going to have to consider what will happen if they find out on their own. Then you have given them an excuse to take away your freedom. You are in a really tricky situation, and at least if you bring up the subject, if and when you do get caught you can tell them that you tried to tell them but they wouldn't listen. If you plan on telling them the best thing to do is think about any and all good qualities about your boyfriend. Does he get good grades, etc. Try to make him out to be a really great guy [ kristamikele's advice column | Ask kristamikele A Question ]

Whats the point? They aren't going to help you see him more, they might make it so you see him less, and you aren't going to be with him for the rest of your life.
I know, its hard to believe. You won't. Don't freak them out yet.
