DATING
Having a tough time

My parents are so strict and I want to spend more time with my boyfriend but they limit me so much. I’m afraid he will breakup with me.

2NDFLOOR

Most parents just want to make sure that their daughter (or son) are happy and safe. So they tend to limit the outings and phone calls. These behaviors can seem strict, overwhelming and even overbearing, but always remember its is coming from a good place.

Try keeping an open communication with your boyfriend and let him know what is going on. Ask your parents if your boyfriend can join you for refreshment so they can get to know him. If you want to talk more with a support counselor, please contact us through the 2ndfloor app or call us at 888-222-2228.

Oh I’m so sorry I get how you feel. And trust me as you get older they will get less and less strict.

If your boyfriend won’t understand you about that then I don’t think he will be very good but plz don’t take this to hard.

Hi, I have strict parents too. My boyfriend started to introduce himself as a friend and eventually my parents loved him and were okay with me dating him
