In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Set up a time when you can hang out with your group of regular friends, and include your potential boyfriend. Group hang outs with your potential boyfriend will give your parents a chance to see you two interact without a label of “boyfriend/girlfriend” over your heads. When you are ready to speak to your parents about possibly dating this guy, they will know who he is instead of him just being a stranger.   Have a movie night at your house or invite everyone to your sibling’s soccer game; two places your parents will most likely be present. If your potential boyfriend is not already friends with your group, have an initial hangout session where he gets to meet your friends. Then take the next step and include him with your friends around your parents. Open up to your parents about what you feel for this guy during your initial conversation with them. Describe his best qualities and make sure to include any thoughtful things he has done for you. Let your parents know why you feel this relationship should move from platonic to romantic.   Make sure to emphasize how this relationship will have a positive effect on your life and how you see yourself. DO NOT say that you "can't live" without him. Having such an extreme reaction will just show your parents that you are still immature. Trust should not just be between you and your parents. Communicate with your potential boyfriend about your overprotective parents and how this possibly could be problematic. He should respect your parents’ opinion and work towards changing their minds, instead of suggesting you lie or go behind their back.  The less your potential boyfriend negatively interferes in your relationship with your parents, the more likely your parents will be convinced to let you have a relationship with him. If your parents find out that you were dating this guy in secret before getting their permission, they may demand an end to the relationship.
Summary: Plan a group hangout. Explain your feelings. Maintain a trusting relationship.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: True market value tells you what people are currently paying for your used BMW. It is based on what dealers are actually selling the car for and is averaged from a number of dealers throughout the country.  Go to a reputable website that verifies used car pricing. You should be able to find a number of pricing tools online easily. Websites displaying true market value will also display the invoice price of the car. This is what the dealership actually paid for it, which will be lower than the value or price of the car. You can also find the sticker price or the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). This will often be more expensive, since cars rarely go for their sticker price. You'll find listings for trade-in, private party, dealer retail, and certified used vehicles. These listings will all be different prices, so use the appropriate listing for your purchasing situation.  Trade-in value is what dealers are usually paying consumers when customers trade in their vehicle. If your used BMW is a recently trade-in, then this is likely about what a dealership paid for it. Private party is how much the car is selling if you're buying it from someone rather than a dealership. This may be more or less than the trade-in value, depending on the year or condition of the vehicle. Dealer retail is roughly what this car is selling for at dealerships. When buying at a dealership, this is about what you should expect the car to be listed at. Certified used vehicle is the value if it has a certified used warranty. It has greater guarantees, so can be more expensive. Before going to the dealership, write down how much you're willing to spend. Stick to your number as best as you can. If the car is still too expensive, there's nothing wrong with walking away.  Come into the situation with a clear price in mind. Know what you can (and are willing) to pay for your used BMW. Start off by offering a one step below the true market value for the car. BMWs are popular, so probably only one step is advisable. Used the best negotiating tactics. Don't make any rash decisions while you're there. If a deal for a used BMW is too good to be true, it may very well be. While we all love bargains, do remember that there is no such thing as "cheap BMW in excellent condition."  Buying the cheapest used BMW may not give you the best value for your money. Your goal should be to find a reasonably priced used BMW in good shape. BMWs that are too good of a deal may have some issues. Have a reliable vehicle history report and a mechanic look over the car thoroughly if the price seems too good to be true. If they are asking for less than the car is worth, you definitely need to be suspicious. It's possible the car has major liens against it or it could even be stolen.
Summary: Look up the true market value of the car. Pay attention to the four prices listed under the used car's true market value. Make a plan of what you’re willing to spend on your used BMW. Be realistic about the deal you’re getting.
