How can I try to get his dad to be nice to me?

Question - (3 October 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 4 October 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Ok. This is a teensy bit awkward.

Basically, the guy I've been seeing for over a year, I've had a crush on since I was 12. Although I payed him a lot of attention, he was never really interested in me, so I gave up and dated another guy. We all go to the same youth group.

The guy that I'm seeing now, his dad's a leader at youth group, and when I was dating the other guy, his Dad was always hovering over us, making sure that we didn't kiss or cuddle at youth.

Me and the other guy broke up and I was upset and the guy that I'm dating now realised that he'd missed my attention whilst I was dating the other guy, so after a month of talking and being friendly to eachother, we started seeing eachother.

His dad has NEVER trusted us. His first impression of me was when I was dating the other guy, and he caught every kiss that we sneaked in at youth group. It's gotten to the point now that I'm terrified of his dad, and when my boyfriend has parties, I don't get invited because his dad doesn't trust us.

I've never been anything but nice to my boyfriend's parents and siblings. His mum hugs me and kisses my forehead, and his younger siblings are happy in my presence, to the point where they kiss me on the cheek when I leave or they go to bed, but I feel so awkward around his dad, and I try so hard to be nice to him, and my efforts are very rarely acknowledged.

Please, does anyone have any suggestions for how I can at least try to get his dad to be nice to me?

This is really getting to me now, and any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
