ok well im very upset at my father for sumthing that he does. so my boyfriend is a really big guy and i dont mind at all and my dad likes him and all but my dad always calls him shrek when my bf is not around. i always get mad at my dad for sayin that bc i like my bf alot and he cant help if hes a big guy. i mean my dad isnt that skinny either so i dont think he should be sayin nething. but its like everywhere we go my dad finds sumthing shrek and says "hey we should get this for shrek" and it really hurts me. how can i make my dad stop before he slips up and says sumthing in front of my bf?

Say that your being seroius and it really hurts your feelings,. and it would probably hurt your boyfriend if he ever found out. Thats a surprise that hes your dad making fun of your big guy! hope it works [ babiiLindS89's advice column | Ask babiiLindS89 A Question ]
Lizzy answered Tuesday July 13 2004, 1:00 am: Tell him that your boyfriends is important to you and that when he says that, it wouldn't only hurt your feelings too. If your bf is important to you and you are important to your dad, i'm sure he'll understand. Good luck

blackmamba answered Tuesday July 13 2004, 12:07 am: you have a right to be mad at what your dad is saying. maybe you should tell him how upset it gets you, and how pissed your bf would be if he knew your dad was making fun of him. its incredibly childish to make fun of people who look different than you, and if your dad is too immature to see that, i say give him the cold shoulder and refuse to speak to him until he is on your level of maturity. peace out [ blackmamba's advice column | Ask blackmamba A Question ]

united_python_cheerleader answered Monday July 12 2004, 10:48 pm: Tell him nobody deserves to be called names and im pretty sure your bf is not AS BIG AS SHREK ( that is really mean ) so dont feel bad when your dad says he is as big as shrek because i mean nobody deserves to be called names and stuff so i would try to tell your dad that you really like your boyfriend and you dont want to lose him for soemthing you didnt do ( he did )
Jessie1734 answered Monday July 12 2004, 10:47 pm: Listen, Tell your dad you want him to respect your boy friend, and that you really like him and you don't want him making fun of him because he is big. Even tell him "People don't go around calling you Shrek" Tell him to treat your boy friend the way you would want to be treated and if he says he wouldn't mind then call him somthing for awhile(if hes no so stricked) Give him a taste of his own medicine...
