Siren_Cytherea answered Tuesday July 27 2004, 10:24 pm: Lemme tell you what I did.
When my guy and I had been dating about two months, I realized that he and my dad were way too...formal for my comfort, so I called up my boy after school one day and told him he was coming to dinner with me and my parents at a local restaurant thing. My mom and I talked about random things while getting my guy and my dad to bond.
At the end of dinner, everything was relaxed and they were talking about bad old movies...Lol
Get them to chat over dinner, or a relaxing situation. It'll work wonders.
I hope everything works out!

SWAN answered Tuesday July 27 2004, 7:06 pm: well you obviously really like this guy and if you have that much trust in him and you are falling in love with him there's not much you can do to change that..you're dad is just gonna have to accept that. you cant be his little girl all his life you know..so try talking to your dad and tell him your feelings on it..ask him why he thinks so badly of your boyfriend..after all maybe daddy is just trying to look out for you..but let him know you trust this kid..allright well hope i helped!!! good luck. :-D

texangirl01 answered Tuesday July 27 2004, 6:00 pm: well if your dad wants you to be happy and this guy is what makes you happy then your dad should support that. Try and find out what it is about your boyfriend that your dad doesnt like. And also you have to remember that fathers are very protective over their daughters!!!! so maybe he is just a little shocked by the fact the he isnt the only man in your life now [ texangirl01's advice column | Ask texangirl01 A Question ]
