Does this make me a bad daughter?
Okay so it is my dads birthday tomorrow, and he is on the older side so we are going to see a movie just me and him and then im making him dinner, but tomorrow night there is this concert going on at this boys house. He met my best friend and since she has a boyfriend shes introducing him to me. what ive heard we have a lot in common. the party isnt till 9 and my dad is known for going to bed aroun 9:30, and i really want to go. would this make me a horrible daughter to go to it?

Ask your best friend to ask her boyfriend if you could possible come at 10 or something because it's your dad's birthday. She shouldn't mind. She's your best friend after all... And of course it doesn't make you a horrible daughter. Just go later. :)
By the way, this is assuming it's a late night party and it's until the early hours of the morning. If it ends at 11 or something then make the day EXTRA special for your dad and treat him like a king and then just ask him if you can go at 9. NOW. Go and ask him. now. :)

I'm of two minds to this question. This is a special day for your dad. An opportunity for him to spend the day just him and you. This may give him reason to want to stay out later and enjoy your company a bit longer. Being your fathers age or older I would most likely feel that way. , I know I value the time I get to spend with my son just the two of us doing something we both enjoy. This time is becoming harder to find as his work schedules make more demands on his time.
Then Of course if you (or he) were to ask me if you could go to the concert so you could meet someone? As much as I value our time together I would not want to end our time together on a sour note or feeling or place a cloud over our time together by making it an obligation on your part. So I would of course would tell you I was okay with; it even if I was slightly hurt by your request to set a time limit, after we had made our plans.
Your fathers birthday comes but once a year and sometime, hopefully in the way distant future, they will come with him not being there to celebrate. I'm fairly positive your girlfriend can arrange to introduce you to this boy at another time, especially if he wants to meet you.
While I would never tell you yes or no to this question. I hope I have given you some insight into what dad would say, why he might say it and how he would probably feel. The decision of course on what to do remains with you.

Not really. You should first ask him if he minds of course, and if he doesn't then go ahead!
If he does mind, then maybe give it a miss: it's his special day, and you can always meet this fellow another time.
But just casually ask him. I doubt he will mind, because you are putting so much effort into making it special for him: just try and make it extra special!
Good luck! :)
