Parents do not let me out on my own/with friends on bikes.?
I want to go out on a first date(joint date, we'll be four people together) with someone(and I prefer to be private about it since I am unsure of how my parents will take it, I mean, its a first date and I want to be sure about the guy before letting my parents know anything about him(they would want to know each and everything about him) ). I told them it was a 'meetup' with some girl friends and asked if I could go out with them(they do not have a car, but most have bikes, so I can take a lift). But they think they would drop me(us girls) by car to the meeting place, and then to the cinema and back too(Now my father is gonna have a real problem if I call him up so many times and ask him to drop me here and there, so I'm going to get scolded for that too).

Now its a problem for me, any one can please try to give any suggestions that would help?
I am 18 (and I cannot just ship out all on myself, k? I'm not that independent)

I'm sorry, but if you are 18 you are perfectly capable of finding your own mode of transportation. Save up for your own bike, your parents don't need to know what you are doing 24/7. You are an adult.
