How to tell my parents I have a boyfriend?

Question

So I have a boyfriend I’m 19 and we’ve been together for almost a year but I just can’t get the courage to tell my parents about him. He’s perfect and I know they would like him because he’s a good guy with a job and treats me so good. I know they would be okay with it but I just don’t know when or how to bring it up?

Answer

Just say i have a boyfriend... youre a adult.

Answer

Just tell them. Just be like “hey so i have a guy I would like y’all to meet...” and go from there. But you are 19 years old... you should not be scared to introduce a guy to your parents unless there’s something wrong with him.

Answer

I think the bigger issue is why have you hidden an important relationship from your parents for a year? At this point you just need to tell them.

Answer

Wow he must be great if you've kept him a secret and away from your parents for a yr. Whew. 
You're an adult so just tell them.

Answer

Hey mom and dad I’m seeing someone I’d like you to meet him .... done

Answer

You just need to do it already.  They will probably be more upset about not knowing for a year.  Set a time that you can sit down and talk with them and tell them then.  Next thing will be to plan for him to meet them.

Answer

You’re 19...

Answer

You are an adult and they don't get to dictate whether or not you have a boyfriend. Is there a specific reason you are afraid to tell them? Do you have reason to believe they will react badly?
