TheTeenGirl answered Saturday September 24 2005, 3:03 pm: You crossed the line big time with her dad. I know that he was really rude to you, but you just made thing a whole lot worse by acting childish and saying what you said to him. Breaking up with her wasn't a smart move either. Don't break up with your girlfriend because her dad is just flat out rude for no reason. Unless there is a reason for him to resent you. You cannot control her dad, if this were a friend, or a person that wasn't related to you or her, that you could solve and get rid of. But you will never be able to get rid of her dad, if you end up marrying her, you're stuck with her father forever. Thats the first big reason why you shouldn't have said what you said to him. If you still want to be with her, which I wouldn't doubt, then I suggest that you talk to her dad and ask him what was the problem before anything happened on the phone. Don't yell, just ask him calmy what is the problem. And no matter how rude he is, just say you're sorry before you stop talking to him. You also need to get your girlfriend involved in this, have her talk to her dad about it too. Get some information on this. If you really cared about her, you'd try hard to talk with her dad, and do everything possible to find out what is wrong.
