Hi, I like this lad..but my dad is very protective over me. When i split up with my ex boyfriend, i wanted another lad to come round just a few days later (i was upset) - obviously, the answer was "no, wait a while" [dad]. so i've waited.. 6 months.. and now..all i think about is this lad.. i wake up thinking about him and i go to sleep thinking about him.. we get on really well.. i just want my dad to let him come round our house.. but.. :| i don't see why he won't let me have lads round :S.. he wouldn't even let him come round as a friend! :( What can i do? :(

A female reader, Katie-cola United Kingdom +, writes (26 May 2008):

Your dad is worried that you are going to get hurt again and be upset. He doesnt want lads using you, which is turning him to be a bit over protective. My suggestion would be to go out for a few drinks with this lad. Get him to come to your door and pick you up, so then your dad can see that he is treating you right and its not all about sex.

Your dad will always be protective over you, as he doesnt want to see you treated badly. The guys you date or want to have fun with, will need to gain his trust first. Then once your dad can see your happy and this guy might be nice, he will open up and allow this lad and maybe other lads to come round.

If you simply cannot wait this long, go to the lads house. But if your dad ever found out, then the trust will be gone.

Good luck x
