I mean she doesn't even know him well and she has never met him but my
sister and my mum are saying that he's probably not even committed and
that he is probably jut playing with me... Isn't it slightly unfair of
them to say that when they haven't even met him and seen how lovely he
is? and every time my mother gets angry at me, she always shouts at me
by saying that when I'm older, I'll be having a lot of one night stands
and basically labelling me as a S**T. I don't understand.
By the way, I come from India but i was practically raised in England
and my mum has always told me that she's 'different' from other parents
and that she would not mind if I had a boyfriend. But now that I do, she
keeps judging me and its like the whole family has turned against me
just because of the reason that I am seeing a guy who i really like. And
now my mother is also saying that Im not allowed to go out to see
him...but I like him and do you think it is okay for me to keep seeing
him secretly? or is there a way to talk to my mum about this without her
head literally blowing up with anger? :( Im sixteen by the way.
Your mother clearly has issues from some kind of bad experience and is
afraid for you. That said, you have the right to live your own life. If I
was in your position I would secretly date the person until I was of
age. Short of locking you up, I can't see her stopping you.
If you want to reason with your mother, try getting her head first - ask if she has had any bad experiences herself.
