UWishUHadMyHemi answered Sunday October 17 2004, 12:49 am: ASk your dad what it is that he heard. if you know its not true, try to prove it to your father, but dont be disrespectful...thatyll only make things worse. If you have never heard what your father is talkin about, then may be you should confront this guy and demand the truth. If he swears up and down that its not true, tell him that he wants you guys to be together, he needs to explain this to your dad.If he admits to what yout dad heard, then you need him to go to your father and apologize, and have him swear itll never happen again. i hope this works for you! Good luck sweetie! [ UWishUHadMyHemi's advice column | Ask UWishUHadMyHemi A Question ]

basketballgal answered Monday October 4 2004, 6:54 pm: Almost the exact same situation happened to someone that I know. Stacey* and John* really liked each other. but someone wrote a letter to the parents of the stacey telling her all of these bad things about john, which were all fake or exaggerated. Her dad wouldnt let her ever go out with the guy. So what me and a couple of my friends got together and did is we wrote a letter saying all of the good things about john and sent it to stacey's dad. he went on staceys side after seeing both sides of the agrument adn things turned out okay. just don't do anything behind your dads back.
AnGeLtHuGsTa answered Monday October 4 2004, 3:26 pm: Have your dad meet this guy. Once, he sees that he's actually a nice guy instead of what he heard...He'll let you be with him...Let your dad get to know him. [ AnGeLtHuGsTa's advice column | Ask AnGeLtHuGsTa A Question ]
Siren_Cytherea answered Monday October 4 2004, 12:00 am: Get the guy you like to talk to your dad. Let them get to know each other, and let HIM change your dad's mind about him. Like, arrange for the boy to meet you and your dad at a local restaurant for dinner at some point. That's what I did with my dad and my boyfriend so they could get to know each other.
Talk to your dad, suggest just "getting to know him" to him, and suggest it to the guy, too. If both agree, everything should be cool.
I hope this helps!

neanea282 answered Sunday October 3 2004, 8:36 pm: i think you should tell your father that you really like him and that it is your life and he shouldnt decide who you date. he is just bein over protective thats all. he doesnt want his little girl getting hurt but you have to prove to him that you arent a little girl anymore. invite the boy over to dinner sometime so your father can meet him and show your dad how nice this bot is and how well he treats you. hope i helped!

S_C answered Sunday October 3 2004, 7:54 pm: hey, this isn't an actualy good answer, but a playful thing where if your allowed to cuss, you can say.
When you assume you just make an ass out of you and me. I love to say that when people say, I assumed...
Tell your dad that you are going to go out with him, and there isn't much he can do, or talk to you mom about it (sorry if you don't have a mom you can talk to) [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]
naimee answered Sunday October 3 2004, 7:41 pm: Woah, that sucks. Your in a very very bad position. Maybe if your dad got to know your boyfriend better, then maybe he would like him. Or get your mom to talk to your dad, but if she feels the same way as your dad, then that sucks. Well you have just got to talk to your dad, and make him think that whatever he heard isn't true. If that doesn't work, then your just going to have to talk to him SERIOUSLY about this, and tell him that he has to trust you.
