How to get my Dad to let me date?

ok well my best advice is to hide it from him untill you feel comfortable to tell him my dad got merried a few years ago to my step mom and ever sence then she has brain washed him into being a mean stricked dad.. when my sisters were my age they were aloud to go wherever whenever date dye there hair and curse but now im the youngest and my dad wont let me do anything but work with him without geting payed and I cant date but I hide it from him and hes stupid and doesnt think im that kind of girl and he wont let me dye my hair and I ask him almost everday but he always says no! and I get in trouble for bringing up that my sisters got to… well I don’t know

Im in the same boat :/ my mom and dad wont let me date because “teenagers arent ready to handle emotions like that yet.” I have no idea what to say to this but last case you could try the whole: if you box me in now, I might just break out someday and never come back. your driving me crazy and I need to live my life. but again…last case scenario lol.

I know what your going through b/c my dad is the same way. I’m a senior in high school and he treats me like a little kid. I’m not even allowed to go out that much with my friends and my boyfriend. Which by the way, my dad consider my boyfriend as a “friend.” My dad knows very well that his not a just a friend. He just can’t let me go. He’s strict with me and way too protective. I’m just glad I’m graduating so I can learn from life on my own b/c he just won’t let me. He never has. I don’t know if he will change his ways if you sat with him and talked things out. I have and he hasn’t changed a bit, but I don’t know maybe your dad is different. My advice to you would just keep up with your education; when you find a good boyfriend ask him to call or visit your house so he can meet your father. But make sure you tell you boyfriend how your father is. Maybe your boyfriend will win your father over. My sort of did. If you have any more questions. Just funmail me… Hope my advice helps… Good Luck =)
