Does anyone else have parents that wont really let them date??

Im 16 and my parents wont let me. Although... i have a b/f that i love more then anything in the world! I will tell them some day. They know we like each other and when i ask them if i can hang out with him... it takes them days to give me an answer.

(if you want to get some idea WHY) I've grown up in a christian home all my life and so these standards and rules have been all i've known. (don't get me wrong, most christian familys i know don't have these rules. And i do understand them...) But once i met someone and fell in love with him... it seemed a lil rediculous. But i love my parents and respect them.... which is why i haven't told them... right.

i use to can't date but now i can....but i won't tell them i have a bf or not..
noone tells their parents if they have a bf or not

uhhh....the only person that makes decisions on these things are MOM...and as far as I know...she doesn't mind.

I'm not really sure if I'm allowed to date.. even though I do it anyway. I don't really discuss that kind of stuff with my parents. (I don't discuss anything with them for that matter)... They barely know me. Eh w/e.

my parents...dont mention it. i dont think they care though

Well, my sister brings along her boyfriend to our house and my mother doesn't seem to mind.

My jokingly told me not to date until I was married.

But yeah, I don't think I have any rules on dating judging on the way they let my sister have a boyfriend.

I don't intend to get a boyfriend, so yeah.

I think my mom is ok with it as long as he's a good person and I really like him. I'm not sure about my dad because he's really protective, but the last time I invited a guy friend to my house he was ok with him.

i'm not allowed to date =\ because my parents are overprotective...especially my mom

I have b/fs, and my parents used to have this huge rule that I couldn't, but I did anyway. When they asked me about it, I told them openly. They really don't care now...as long as they know we don't mess around. They don't let me go on dates that often, so I just tell them I'm meeting some friends at the movies or something.

((I live in a Christian home, too, and I agree. Not everyone has this strict of rules.

i don't know if I can have a bf or not :/

I've never confronted my parents with it.
They'd get ANGRY if I went out on a date.
They'd be REALLY mad, & they dont belive in all that stuff.

Pity me.

yeah.. all i have to say is that your parents suck. i was aloud to go on a date since sixth grade. lol. my parenst are pretty laid back a lot of the time. they had to meet him first, though. since then, i've become a bit more... umm... bad and yeah... so i don't let them meet the guys i date. lol. some of them are really nice, but they're older. so yeah.....

no my parents let me. but it's not uncommon that some parents don't. their just overprotective of their kids getting hurt

I'm not allowed to date until I'm 16. (In... 6 months. *twirls finger* Yahoo.) It doesn't really matter though... we're moving and I'm not really looking at the moment.
