It sounds like they're holding on to you harder than you want to be held. That you feel convinced you're old enough but they are not sure. You've mentioned that you and this girl are of similar 'status', as far as education and a 'respectable' background go, but that doesn't appear to have changed the problem. As to what to do about that, really it is up to you to decide how to respond to this problem. But I understand your wish to ask for help - I know my own parents tended to hold on too tight when I felt ready to face adult life.
