Answer #1

hey gurlie my opinion is that you are alittle to young to be goin on dates..if you are only 13 most gurls arnt allowed till about 16…and the whole dieng your hair thing that isnt a big deal I dont think…juss tell your mom that you want alittle something different then what you have had for the past 13 years but if that is what you moms rules are then there really isnt nehting you can do to change them

Answer #2

Well actually i had the same problem that you have but i dont have sisters so it was my cousin they let her have a boyfriend when she turned 13 but i had to wait until i turned 15…I didnt think it was fair at all but its not that their not being fair buts that they are trying to be protective…So just dont hold it against them they are just doing their jobs as parents…When the time comes for you to date you wiil know and dont be afraid to tell your parents when you do start dating because you cant keep secrets from them ir then they wont trust you enough to let you do anything

Answer #3

Trust me, you dont want a boyfriend, too much drama. And you DEFINITLY dont want to be in love, too much heartbreak.

Answer #4

Umm,

I hope you dont believe that your parents wont let you date till you are 32, they cant legally do anything about. so stop making a big deal.

if you keep making a big deal they will think you are immature and less likely to let you date because they think you’ll make bad decisions because you are being so immature. wait till you are 15 or 16 to really date. goign to the movies on a group date is about as much as you should do for now.

Answer #11

ok hunny im in the same bat as you. I really want to go to this party with friends that are at my new school in myrtle beach because I just moved here and I sorta want to fit in lol. Im not really the kinda girl that cares what people think but I’ve never been to a big party like this. Im 16 years old still a virgin and never drank or smoked in my life and im proud of it. my parents are just so protective over me I really hate that I love them to death but I really hate the fact that they wont let me do anything or go anywhere if they dont no the person that im hanging out with and like there whole freaking background. I sorta understand were they are comeing from the like so many kidnapings and rapes and crap and expecial sence my dad is famous so that they wont let me do nothin man. what ever tho I no who you feel girl and you no what to tell you the truth it gets worse lol but at the same time it gets a lot better if that makes like any sence to you at all lol.

Answer #12

No, you know what, screw everyone else =P They dont know how it is. 13 isn’t too young to have a boyfriend. I mean, exclusive dating would be different. But I know for sure, I grew up really fast. I acted like I was 16 when I was 13. Still, I think your parents are HONESTLY just trying to watch out for you.. so Idk, just tryyy 2 listen to them. But we all know your human. so cut yourself some slack and do what makes you happy. [within reason.]
