You are only 13 years old. I know you feel like an adult, capable of making all your own decisions, but you're not. That's why you live with an adult. Your mom isn't there to feed you, she's also there to raise you. If she sets a "no dating" rule, you need to follow that rule. It is for your own good. You should be focusing on school, friendships and family right now, not on dating.
My parents did the same thing to me when I was in Grade 8. Yes, I was very upset with them at the time. Now, I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking, wanting to date when I was just a baby. You've got all the time in the world to grow up.
As for not wanting to lose the love of your life because of someone as silly as your mother, I think you need to readjust your priorities. How many relationships between thirteen year olds do you think last more than a year? More than 10 years? Not a whole lot. Your mother is one person who will be there for you through thick and thin, so long as you don't go losing that relationship because you don't value it. Never put a boyfriend ahead of your mother (at least not until you're living on your own). You're betraying her trust by dating this guy against her permission, and that could really hurt her.

You need to sit down and yes i know you said its hard but you still have to do it. Tell her mom I dont know if you are nervous I am going to go out and have sex. but tell her. If there was a point in time way later down the road that i felt i was ready to have sex I will tell you first. I will ask for birth control but until that day you have nothing to worry about. (and please to this) I got pregnant at 15 years old and it was the hardest time of my life. trust me. any who just let her know you dont plan on having sex.
