over protective parents

Tia

soooo i’m 15 and about to turn 16 and i never had a boyfriend. i want to get one but the problem is, in the middle east my parents think that i shouldn’t have a boyfriend because im not ‘responsible enough’. like, what does that even mean?? i tried my best to show my mom that im responsible enough but it just wouldnt work. a lot of boys are interested in me but i shut them out with the excuse of:”i dont date” although i genuinely want to. please give your girl some advice..
