dads and boyfriends
okay, so, my dad is totally changing his views on everything now, and I don't really know how to talk to him like I used to. I mean, I could tell him anything, and now its just kinda weird. He won't let me read Seventeen until he cuts some "articles he doesn't want me to see" out. He says that I am not allowed to date (whereas in 4th grade I had a boyfriend and him and my stepmom would always be like "did you call him yet" and stuff). Him and my stepmom used to ask me how to have kids on the sims, i am not even allowed to make my sims kiss now (which I do anyways, but still). They used to be so cool and all, but now they are so overprotective. I don't go to school (homeschooled) so I don't have those kind of problems. They think that I will fall into all these stupid fads and trends and sex and drugs (yes, i love fashion, and music, and yes i do try to impress people and stuff, but only to a reasonable extent). I like this boy, who i like, just met about six months ago, but I have only seen him a couple of times. I know that he likes me, but when we get to know eachother more, and if he asks me out or something, what do i say, i mean "i have to ask my dad" or "i'll think about it" will sound like i am a baby or he might think that i don't like him and he might just look for someone else. I don't think i could do something like have a boyfriend behind my dad's back, and how can i have a boyfriend in front of his back? How do I tell my dad I like this guy and he likes me? (by the way, don't say "well, this guy hasn't even asked you out yet, and he might not ever." i am asking in advance so that when anyone does, what the hell do I say to my dad and future boyfriend?) thanx i rate :) (srry this was long, don't even answer if you're going to give some retarded answer like "hmmm...idk umm.. DON'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND!") thanx again

Did something happen to change the way he thinks? In my experience, people generally don't change that drastically unless something has happened. If you know what happened to bring on the change, you might be able to discuss it with them.
As far as the boy, you might try asking your dad and stepmother if you can invite him over for dinner one night. Because they'll be there, they might be more inclined to allow it. It will also give them a chance to get to know him, which might make them feel comfortable enough for you to go on a date.

I agree with the person below. Talk to him about it. Explain to him that it is okay and you already know this kind of stuff. Ask him what you did that made him so overprotected and such. Let him know how you feel about this situation. Tell him that, yes he should give you some boundrys here and there, but be realistic you need space, you are a teenager (I guess?). Then if he lets go a bit, then tell him about this boy and that you are just friends but what if the time comes that you become more then that. Tell him that you won't give in to drugs, sex, and drinking. Let him know you are responsible enough to handle dating.
I hope this helps you and if you need anything else, just ask me!

Well Maybe you could talk to or dad before this boy asks you out so when he does you know what to say. I dont know how old you are so. For your dad changing so quick did you do something that you shouldnt have and your dad found out? You could ask him why he is being so over proctected of you and why he wont let you play sims fully. And the magazines if hes going to cut out articles you maybe shouldnt buy them because that kinda destroys the point of having a magazine.
Idk if i helped you much but i tried And that counts right? I woulkd just talk to your dad.
