well, i agree with everyone. if you're restricted by ur parents, then it's probably because u really are too young. my parents restricted me in hs, and i didn't listen.... and i really really regret it. i really didn't know what i was doing. but even if u think u aren't too young, then i think its a proof of maturity to just listen to ur parents until ur outta high school or something. respect their authority as ur parents. if u really are mature and what u have is something mature, then it can wait.
so then for the other person... i think they should respect the parents no matter what. if the parents are restricting cuz they're too young but you really like them, you can wait them out.
honestly, i think i would have respected my high school bf more if he had told me he didn't want me to deceive my parents, even if that meant having to break up.
but if you're in a situation where its not about age anymore, if u really like the person then... as kangg fu says, talk to the parents. part of liking someone is being able to respect their parents. honestly, i would know my guy really loves me if he really cared about my relationship and his relationship with my parents and did his best to maintain that, even if it meant having to be more conservative about how he was with me... like seeing me less for a while, or only taking me out during the day, or whatever. i think if my guy said, "just lie to them, who cares," i would see it as a sign of selfishness.
he's gotta see the big picture.
