Not allowed to date:(

[Spinner]

I am unable to date because of my age but I wish could. Dont want to get into mushy feelings what like about a relationship. Kinda embarrassed to say:/ what should I do?

[Jess]

why can't you date? there are plenty of people at 16 that date

get to know a girl better first, maybe?

[Spinner]

My parents won't let me date because I am 16 I'm too young they say. I need to be 18

[Skyhawk]

My parents won't let me date because... ...I need to be 18
Exactly the same for me.

Edit: You could just turn and not care about much like I did, but I honestly don't recommend that since it can actually ruin someone's personality.

Same here I feel your pain dude

[Steve01]

that sucks dude. why dont u just bring a nice girl home and introduce her to your parents. maybe they will like her, and switch their decision

[dontcare97]

Your parents probably want you to wait until you finish high school.It's kind of a good idea because I know people you were so into dating and the opposite sex, they school work suffered greatly. but if you feel that yo can handle it and that you are physically and emotionally mature enough to handle it, go for it.

[bestintheworld]

I agree with Steve. bring a girl u like home for like dinner or something or a hangout day and see if they like her and maybe gradually have her over more often and then eventually confront your parents and see if they will allow you to date her

[Spinner]

They don't approve of me being emo either we just now had a fight about it she allows me to dress emo but she hates the thought of it the name I can't grow long hair either :( so I can't be total emo a girl I used to like said I look emo with my short hair

[MonsterBear]

Well i think you should find a nice girl and get to know her and is she likes you enough, you guys should wait until you finish highschool. If not you could always do it secretly?

Its risky but ive done it before and it was horrible at first. I wanted to tell my mom because i hated sneaking around. The guilt just kept on building but than one day i got caught ditching with my boyfriend so my mom found out. At first she was furious but she told me as long as i could handle it and take responsibility for my actions. she would let me continue my relationship with him.

my foster siblings can't date and some are over 18, but in the house. their parents believe in courting only. dating is out of the question completely. they tried holding me to that standard, but no way! i have a gf.

[Spinner]

Well it's never gonna happen that's why I'm depressed the only girl I ever liked only likes me as a friend. This gets off this subject but I have come so close to cutting myself with my buck pocket knife people still believe I'm that little kid I was 5 years ago but I'm not I grew up everyone around me is 18+ and they don't wanna hang with a younger guy the only girls that crush on me it 13 year olds

[judahtics]

i'm the youngest guy in my class. i'm 14 and this is going to be my junior year in high school.

[Spinner]

I hate it because I get attached to a girl easy but no matter how much I like or love I'm stuck I can't do anything about my feelings. Now I have deadend my feelings that Way which means I stay away from girls and I hate it.

[loveconquers]

I've been there, I know what you're going through! My mom used to literally flip at the mention of a me having a boyfriend when I was about that age. I think the best thing to do is try to talk to them and be open with them about how you're feeling. Communication is key, and hopefully they'll listen. Tell them that you're growing up and you think you're mature enough to handle a relationship. Maybe you all can come to some kind of compromise on the matter. Hope that helped, Good Luck !

So what if you aren't allowed? Do it anyway.

just try talking to girls get comfortable round us an our hormonal ways ;) then when you get slightly older try taking up the topic with your parents, when you find the girl. If they disagree invite her round or something, eventually they will understand. xxx
