I would sit your parents down and discuss your boyfriend with them. The sooner you do this, the better. You don't have to mention that you've been together for four years or anything like that yet, just bring up the subject with them. If it's easier, talk to whichever parent you feel more open to first. Another approach you can take is talking with an older sibling or another family member that you can trust, and getting their advice on how to approach your parents with this.

This is obviously going to come out eventually if you plan on spending the rest of your life with him, so do it now instead of waiting even longer because the longer you wait, the more problems you'll have to deal with in the long run. I know from experience that it is NOT a good idea to hide relationships from people. It's hard and very nerve racking but if you really are in love with this guy, it should be worth it.

Just Be Like "Hey Mum And Dad! I'm Going To Go See My Boyfriend Now" And They'll Start A Conversation With You About Him And You Can Talk To Them About Him And Hopefully They Will Approve!

No, but seriously, just tell them. Be straightforward. And don't act immature like "but mommmmmmy we loooooove each other."

I'm in a similar situation, and after things fell through with dating my boyfriend legitimately, we just kept the relationship a secret and will have to until I turn 18.
