Today is our Chinese's traditional festival.At first,I feel very very happy.So I am still online though it is 1 o'clock at night.I play QQ.But suddenly one of my friends ask me :"Have you ever made a BF?"Oh.I really don't know how to answer it.What was worse,at that time,my father was near me!And he saw all the words!Now you needn't I tell you,you will know what happened to me,not only shut,but also............
Oh.Who can tell me?Why did parents shuted at me before they knew all the reasons and things.By the way,from first to last,I think I have never done a little wrong,Why?Why they shouted at me.Now I have no face in front of them!Who can give me some good ideas?Many thanks!

Sorry, winkydragonfly. you have a strict father. I don't think your dad was right. but you can't change him. we all can't choose our parents. you have to wait until you leave your home for your college. I mean, if you are lucky enough, you will start your college in another city, then you will be far away from your dad's strict control.

My mom used to treat me like that. therfore, I had no boyfriend during my high school years!! I remember...I had to be a bookworm in those hard years. But I finally owned freedom after I entered into my college. and that's amazing!! without your parents around, you can date whoever you love, and listen to any absurb music you like; keep any weird hairstyle you like....

Just be patient!!

I think you don't need to act like you are guilty, just behave normally. Your parents get angry, maybe they think you are too young to have that kind of relation. They are afraid you would get hurt, and influence your study. If you think you are ready to have such a relation, and you are sure that it won't distract you from your study. You should prove it to your parents. Probably they will soften gradually. However, if you are still very young, maybe you should pay more attetion to your school work.
By the way, Happy Lunar New Year !

Tell them that you are innocent. However you are really innocent. And as long as you didn't do anything bad you shouldn't worry what your parents say. However if you wanna have career then making boyfriend is not good.

even if you have a boy friend. it is meaningless, it isn't a serious problem!
you need time to persuade your father. I believe he will understand that you're mature enough to have a bf! Wink

Winkydragonfly i coulnt really understand why you worry too much.
If your father heard all of your conversation than there is no problem. Confused
Also i think you make him more suspicious by behaving so.Just behave normally and dont be so fussy.I suppose you are not too young,so they must learn to trust and respect your rights.

pfff phucauto what are you saying?
Mr. Green She is trying not to get a boyfriend, and you tell her getting boyfriend is not serious?

Don't listen to him.

I believe, for a girl who hasn't have any boyfriend before, one can really be bad for her career because she will be imagining a lot of senseless thoughts which will overtake her brain.
And in China school is really hard so if she wants to have career then she can't have boyfriend before university.

phuc, you don't know anything about China

And however as long as you believe you don't have any boyfriend then you are telling the truth. I believe the truth will always stay at last.

But if you are not sure then try to be sure, because being inconsequent is not good.

phucauto,Thank you all the same.Even though I don't agree with you,But I think shall thank you!

eda,I will thank you too.You gave me a very good idea.I think I should show all the chat record to my father.And then he will know I am innocent!

admiral,Of course I shall thank you!You are really understand China,understand me!Do you know how greatful I am now!I really can't describe!Of course I want to have a career.So I won't have a bf till I have got a nice steady job.

At last,Do you know how old I am now?
Tell you the truth,I am just a middleschool student.What is more,I am a junior!Junior Three!So I needn't to think more about this!It is unnecessary!
But that day,to my surprise,how dare my friend asked me this question?Because of his question,trouble so much problems!But now,they are all solved by us.
At the same time,I have known so many friends!
How lucky I am!
Thank godiness!

Oh,By the way,admiral,from you speaking,I guess you and phucauto aren't Chinese.Am I right?But could you tell me where you come from?
Do you know,in fujian ,such a small province,we almost have no chance to speak or meet foreigners!And how I wish that one day I can have a chance to speak English with foreighers!
Oh,You see.my words are too more.I am sorry.But please let me say it!
When I was 10 years old.I went to the city named fuzhou.That day,I met a foreigner,(I guess that he was from the USA,just guess!~~)And he was friendly to me.When I got on the bus,he kept saying"hello.how are you?"to me.But at that time,I know little English,(How foolish I was!)So I hadn't replayed him.Even felt a little afraid of him.Now,I know he was greeting to me!How regretful I feel now!
I think if there will be another chance,I will take it!
At last,I will say:"Because I have just learn English for 3 years.(From Grade 1 to Grade 3)So my English is poor,I think I have made a lot of mistakes in my compositions.Could you show them to me?"
Now,by expressing myself on paper,I have a lot of confidence in learning English.And I think I will learn better!


Oh.What I have said is far away from the topic.I am very sorry about that!

Your guess is utterly wrong!
I'm from Yunnan, they have good 过桥米线, you should try it.
But I don't really know fujian, so you are supposed to invite me in the summer.

I can totally understand what winkydragonfly meant. because I used to be a Chinese teenager, and now I am a Chinese mom. I know everything about Chinese education toward teenagers.

Winky, as I said before, you have no choise. you have to wait until you go to another city to start your college years. By then you will own freedom and happiness. and you can date anyone you like.
