Should I keep convincing her?

[DippityDoo]

So I broke up with my ex last week and it didn't make me sad or anything. I lost feelings for him. I met another guy at a quinceanera who I really like. We already went on a date and it went really great. I really like this guy but my mom doesn't want me going to fast and ruining my "reputation". It's not like I cheated or anything. The timing was just weird and I met this guy at a weird time but it happened anyway. I don't want to go fast either but whatever happens, happens. So this guy wants to go bowling with me. Regular activity that's public and she's not sure about letting me go because she doesn't want people to think that I'm some sort of hoochie even though I'm not having sex until I'm married. So should I keep convincing her to let me see this guy?

If you are broke up with the other guy, then why not? Whatever people are saying, uf they are saying anythin, is probably already being said, so there's nothing you can do. Might as well just go. And yeah it is in public so it's not like much can happen.

Just try to forget.

If its common knowledge that you have broken up with the other guy, then why not? If your Mum is concerned about your rep, then perhaps try and compromise with her by saying for now you're just friends with him and you're not in a relationship. That way you can enjoy his company, keep developing your friendship/relationship slowly by going bowling with him or whatever. Perhaps if things go further maybe you could keep your relationship quiet for a while before telling your Mum. I don't see a lot of harm in that given you have no intensions of having a sexual relationship anytime soon.

From your mom's point of view, your peers might view you as a cheater or "promiscuous" by moving from boyfriend to boyfriend so quickly. But you obviously had no feelings for him for a while, so it doesn't feel that way to you. Based on your other posts, it seems to me that your best option is tell your mom that you never connected with your ex-boyfriend, and you do with this boy, so you want to hang out with him and be friends.

I can see how the timing isn't great but if you lost feelings for your ex then why do you need to keep worrying :) life's short so I wouldn't worry about what other people think of you! So go bowling and you never know that he could be the one. I hope all goes well!

If you like him just do what you thinks best :)

I'd say go with him, you shouldn't care of what others think if you actually like that guy.

Yes, you should!!! If you really like him, then date him!!! No one can hold you back or keep you from him!
