Okay guys, this one girl is really interested in me, but we live 15-20 minutes away (different counties) and she's always asking when we can hang out. Trouble is, my parents don't know her, I've never been on a date before (parents not used to this so I feel akward telling them that I'll be going on a date), and I have no way of getting there. The other night when we were supposed to go out I told my parents that a few friends would be picking me up and dropping me off...but that didn't work out because her friends weren't available to give her a ride. My mom seems overprotective and when I said my friend was picking me up with another friend and his girlfriend and she started asking a lot of questions about them, because she doesn't know them. And then she said "YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?" and I said "no mom...." So I'm kinda worried how she'll react if I told her I'm going on a date. Any tips on how to be able to go on dates (meeting wise..transportation and whatnot) and also how to slip the parents.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
OMG my mom is an exact copy. Damn it sucks. If you tell her you are going on a date she will be way too weird about it so just tell her you are going out with some friends, get a bus or cab or something and then go do something cheap.
Well I don't really know because that's expensive. Dating chicks from other counties is hard especially when you are under driving age. I guess you are screwed. lol.

Yeah that's great. If mom ever found me with a condom she would never trust me ever again. She was telling me about this aweful video game(Vice city) that she was so glad I didn't play those games. I have Vice City. lol. And all the property. How I can't hang out at my cousins because he looks at porn. lol. I feel kind of bad how much I lie to her.

Do you think if I'm open and honest with them they'll be cool about it? My dad is cool 99% of the time, but I've never brought up the topic of having a girlfriend. I was thinking of asking him "would you let me date girls" or "would you let me have a girlfriend?" and see how he responds. I would probably bring it up with him first since my mom is a worried freak and doesn't want her "baby" to get hurt and I'm 17 lol.
Well it depends on your dad. Mine was an ******* and a Drunk. lol and my mom is way to worriesom to tell but it seems like you got it ok. so I would talk to your dad first becaus ehe will talk to your mom for you and get her not to freak out about it.
But yeah relay everything you want your mom to know to your dad because he will probaly get her calmed down. lol.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
