Boyfriend vs. Dad


Question Posted Saturday April 9 2005, 11:58 am

13/f
I don't get along with my dad. He has been gone all my life until last year. We totally clash. He's not happy about me having a relationship with a boy. My boyfriend, Warren, is scared to be around my dad. I invited him to my church but he doesn't want to go because my dad will be there. How can I convince Warren to be around my dad if I can't even stand my dad? Please help!
Thanks,
Macie

You and your dad need to take it slow. He missed about 12 years of your life and now your getting used toc being around each other. You should have your boyfriend over someday and have dinner or hang out in the house watching a movie. Let your dad see he isn't a bad guy and let your boyfriend see that your dad isn't a bad guy, he just isn't used to being that father that you need or the person he would expect him to be. Good Luck!

If your dad has been gone for your whole life since recently, that took away your young relationship with your father, and he does not have any memories with you. He could be very sad, and he has never had to go through that before. I think you might need to spend some time with him and keep Warren on the down low for a while until you become very good friends wtih your dad.. good luck

Well since he didn't see you all your growing up years...it's probably pretty hard for him to get it through his head that you are growing up. He will hopefully get over that.

It seems to me church, or someplace neutral like that is a good place for bf to meet dad. The thing is that it is hard for boy's to meet girls dads even if they do like them. He has it tough.
Since you are only 13 though, I don't know that I would push the issue. If your dad wants to meet him then let him ask you to invite him over.

Ok well i sugest you bring warren to your houseW whether your dad likes him or not. he has just suddenly come back into your life but he cannot just start telling and giving you orders. If you want your boyfriend to come to the house then bring him round! Tell your dad that you dont agree with him about Warren and no matter what you are not gonna stop seeing him. Once you've told your dad this then he should get the picture that you like Warren alot and nothing he says is going to change that! but dont shout at him so much that you get into trouble lol
hope i help
luv shelly
