Pressure to get a bf from Dad

I am now 16, 17 in October. And my Dad is getting rather obessed with whether i like boys as boyfriends and whether any boys have ever asked me out. I have never had a proper bf.

It has kinda got worse recently. I went to my new school for an induction day. When i got home, he asked whether there was any boys that i liked. Which annoyed me because I am new to the school and struggled learning names of people in my all girl form never mind any boys.

How can i tell him that he is annoying me and i want him to not be so obessed with my love-life?

Tell him that you are focussing on other things like settling into a new school...

Get some boys to phone your home phone asking for you, make sure your dad answers first. I'd do it for you if I knew you.

your dad is trying to find out your sexuality, and/or push you into heterosexuality perhaps?? Maybe he is intent for you not to be lesbian....?

Just throwing in my two cents here...

claim you're really into your subject X teacher and give a graphic description of what you want them to do to you. This will hopefully disturb your dad so much he wont reask.

He's probably just asking so that when you do say yes you're interested in someone/going out with someone, he can check that they're ok and everything. Dads can be really protective like that, especially with all the stuff around at the moment that you always hear on the news.
Tell him you're not interested in anyone at the moment, but when you are you'll tell him. Then don't tell him :p:

Wow count yourself lucky lol! My dad is the total opposite. It's like, "What? You KISSED A BOY? !?!?!?!?!?!? *pretends to be ok with it whilst asking not-so-subtle questions about his life history.*

I had exactly the same problem when I was your age, except with my mum, nagging me to go out and get laid. I wasn't all that interested in getting laid, in all honesty.

I just said "For f**ks sake, I'll get laid when I bloody well want to!"

I reckon you need to go up to him and say-

'You are annoying me and i don't want you to be so obsessed with my love life.'

I reckon :biggrin:

My dad was the same, if its what white_haired_wizard says, which i sense it is as well, just point out a 'fit' bloke on telly or something. Now that will make your dad feel awkward :biggrin:

Just explain to your dad that getting a boyfriend is not your biggest priority in life right now, and that when you meet someone you genuinely like, maybe you'll feel differently. Tell him you know he's just looking out for you, but that it makes you feel uncomfortable when he asks so many questions about your love life, because you feel as though he's putting pressure on you to do things before you're really ready.
