Man for some reason my parents are so strict. They weren't born from this country they form the carbiean and when I say their old school their old school. Like their gay cause I can't go anywhere like I've been only going to home, school, and school events which are gay. Like I only go to parties with invitations so if it's like a spur of the moment thing like my parents won't let me go. What should I do to let my parents less strict should I wait till I get a car and it'll be easy to say oh I'm going so and so and I don't need you for a ride since I have a car or should I do something about it now. What would you say to your parents to confront them. They won't even let me get a job. I am doing kind of bad in school. Come to think about it my parents are crazy. They won't let me date, hang out with friends, won't let me hang out pass 1 o clock with MY COUSINS, and always asking stupid ass questions. My father got mad when I started signing up for college questionares for more info and ask if a college in Washington or something sent me a scholarrship would I go ( Live in NY) I said yes and he said no way wtf. Like I hate being the ****in first child. Man had to rant a bit since I missed this celebration party for this game at school. Thanks for anyone who actually takes the time to read and listin thx in advance now off to my boring as life
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Well, first bring up those grades. You shouldn't be allowed to go out whereever you want if your grades aren't good. Once that is settled, along with anything else in your life that you should be doing that you aren't, then try talking to your parents, saying you need more freedom. If it doesn't work then either just wait until you get your license, or try getting another, more understanding adult to talk to them (relative, counselor, family friend, whatever).
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

you say they do not like you going to partys with out invitations, wow that must suck since 90% of of partys you do not get a formal invitation your freind just asks you to come along.
But did it never cross your mind that if an invitation is what your parents want to see, an invitiation is what they shall see!
come on use some creativity how hard is it to go on to microsoft publisher and write up a fake invitation as if you have been formaly invited, it will take you like 10 minutes, then just print it out and show your parents.

Sounds like you have to earn trust from them.
In any case, there is nothing you can do, you are 16. They control your life until you are 18. If i were you i'd use all my free time to excersize/bring my grades up.
