Phone Calls
My dad won't let me date till im 16. Im only 14 right now and I have a boyfriend, and i have guy friends. My boyfriend called me this afternoon, and my dad heard the message he left me. All it said was his name and phone number, but my dad got mad. Then a little later, one of my guy friends called, and dad got even more mad. He said im too young to have guys calling me.
How can I convince my dad that im just friends with these guys? I really want to keep my friends, but he doesnt want me to hang out with guys. What do I do?

*hey sweetie*
Your lucky! Some kids cant have boyfriends till their out of the house, or until their 18 or never! But I had the same problem, Im not saying what Ive beening doing n what I did was right but its just advice. My parents dont let me date either, my mom understands that its okay if a guy calls me but my dad doesnt. Their was no way convincing him that its okai to have guy friends! I couldnt have guys call me either but heres an idea, If your parents will let you get a cell phone get one so that way you can talk to anyone on it. One other idea which could be wrong but I still went out with guys n have guy friends I just call them. Last is you can try forever convincing your dad guys are just guys! Well good luck n I hope I helped you out!

Tell your dad that you're fully capable of having a boyfriend. You're responsible and know your limits when it comes to guys.
Your dad may be just uneasy because some guys can be real jerks and just use girls, but ask your dad if you can invite one or two of you guy friends over so he can meet them and know that they're not total losers! =)
Hope I helped you!

to convince him that theyre just friends, it would help if you didnt have a boyfriend first of all. give him the pros and cons of having guys as friends so he knows your not just thinking of yourself and that you do care about what he says. if you feel like being rebellious, just keep dating him because your dad cant do anything about it, otherwise listen to him.
hope i helped.

I think your dad is being a little bit overprotective. You should definitely sit down and talk this whole thing over with him. It is ridiculous! I myself am 14 and my mom lets me callhang out with guys and she is very old-fashioned! So tell your dad how you feel. :) hope i was able to help!

Wait till your dad is alone and in a good mood. But don't act like you expect anything. Then, simply just walk into the room and sit down next to him. Then start explaining the TRUTH. But still, tell him only what he wants to hear. MAKE SURE YOU TALK SLOWLY! If he interupts you, STAY CALM! don't let him get to you. once the conversation is over, give him a kiss on the cheek or do something touching to make him know you care about him even if you don't like his answer. Later (NOT ON THE PHONE) talk to your boyfriend at SCHOOL. talk to him at a time you think he will listen. Tell him the problem you are having with your dad. Tell him you love him very much and you don't want to break up even though you might have to. if you are really feeling it, you might cry. This will show how you are not willing to break up with him. If he understands, you know he was a boyfriend worth having. But if he reacts in the wrong manner, you know that he wasn't worth while. whatever choice you make DON'T FEEL GUILTY. you have no reason to. besides, life is too short to complain, but so long and beautiful to give up.
Good luck

your dad is the typical dad hes gonna hate every boy you know because your his little princess and is always gonna b his little princess...the best thing you do is like have an older sister or older brother talk to your dad about it..if you dont have that option i guess you can have your friends meet you dad but thats a last resort otherwise i dont know what to do for you....

OK haha sounds alot like my father!
heres some ideas:
A. you can sit down with your dad and tell him listen dad I know you dont like my guy friends and worry about me, but I just want you to know they are JUST my friends nothing more...
and about your boyfriend...well just tell your dad you guys are going out because you really like him and its just for fun and nothing bad will happen!!
if he still refuses and tells you no more guy friends...personally if i were you...would just ignore him...because honey your 14 and your dads protective just like mine...before you know it you'll be 16!!!
good luck
