yikes i know how you feel. talk to him. he understands, trust me! just tell him flat out. it will all blow over sooner or later. or if you want to give it some time.. talk to your school nurse. hope i helped <3333

Just ask him for money and if he asks why say you need to get something at the store and if he asks what just say its girl stuff and if he stilll doesnt get it tell him that you need pads.. it may be embarrising but its better than not getting what you need !

its always good to talk things out with your dad. i know how you feeel. i am so much closer with my dad than my mom. i tell my dad everything. he does need to know whats going on with your body and the changes you are experiencing. just go tell him be like "dad i started my period and i was wondering if you could go get me something for this." its that simple. if you need anymore advice just let me know.

try talking to one of your friends mom. or one of your friends that have their period. its normal thats what people do at my school.
if you have one of those meshines at school, bring atleast 5 bucks in quarters. and buy them there.
umm maybe when going to your friends house. tell them that you need some pads/tampons and you have money and could quickly run to the store.
well your dad will find out soon anyway.. like cleaning your clothes. and having to buy you bras. just try to tell him straight up or in the grocery store when hes shopping go with him and run and when hes not looking stuff some in the carrige. thats what my sister did when she started
Good luck and happy period!

You could try making it really simple by saying, "Dad, I have to pick up some stuff at the store." Bur I know how you feel because I'm just plain embaressed to talk to anyone about that kind of stuff.
As for someone to talk to, maybe you can talk to a friend, or a friends mom? Even lady teachers can be easier to talk to that about rather than a guy. If you feel SO uncomfortable asking your dad to take you to the store, maybe you could go with a friend and it would feel less awkward.
Hope I helped!

just go buy them yourself. be like hey dad can i have $5 i need to go buy something. its a kinda personal girl thing. i bet he nos where your coming from. or just kind add them to your shopping list or write a note for your dad to buy them and dont really say anything to him

You have to be really straight forward. Go up to your dad, and say, "dad, i'm running low on girl supplies. Would you please take me out to get some more soon.?" And leave it at that. He probably won't mind if you ask him. Anyway, Good luck with that!!! I promise, it gets easier!
BYE!

Well i think you need to bring it up gently,discreatly he will get the message. he may get them for you or if you tell him you want to do it alone tell him that too. hes a dad it had to happen someday he knows that.
Hope this helps

The most important thing first, is not to run out of supplies. If you get pocket money, go to the shops, and buy yourself some. (Not that I would know 0=) but I can imagine running out would result in losing you a lot of dignity. It would probably also make talking to your dad about it a little more embarrassing.
Once you've got what you need, you can take your time about talking to him about it. Hey, if you REALLY didn't want to bring it up, maybe you could just leave him hints (Like a packet of libra in the medecine cabinet).
Of course, you could just work yourself up, make sure nobody else is in the room, and say "Dad, I've started my period." (make sure you don't ger nervous and go blurting loud enough for the people in the next room to giggle about ^.-)

I'm pretty sure dad knows its going to happen sometime soon! Try this though because if you think you are embarrassed...he will be too.
Just tell him you need some money for some female supplies. I think he may get the hint. If you need a ride to the store tell him you need a ride and a few dollars to buy some girl stuff.
He will probably know exactly what you mean. Maybe he will talk to you about it, more than likely he will quickly say OK and run you to the store without asking questions.
You really could probably tell him about it though. He knows what its all about. I can understand how you would be embarrassed to say anything though. I would be too.
You know what? My husband used to not even walk down the aisle they were in! He has grown up a little since then but most guys are like that. LOL :)
