I'm a 24 year old and my dad's drunk on the night after work. He's been asking questions about me & my boyfriend,"when your boyfriend's going visit me & your mom here, come ask him to come & drink with me?" I was telling him that my bf have 2 jobs & is going to school for the english, (he's Mexican & learning english). My dad doesn't even know him & met him yet. They've talked on the phone when I was in the hospital on Jan. 17th. told my dad that my bf was trying to reach me to my cell & i didn't answer, told my dad that he wanted to visit me in the hospital but dont know where! my bf wanted to know I'm ok, he told supervisors where is the hospital, but dont know.he's been there for me,even not in person,but calling me i'm ok! My dad said 'tell him bulls**t!' & maybe he don't love u! I told him he does,but I kept telling my dad to give my bf time & patience! he needs to know my bf have 2 jobs & need his education.he told me get another boyfriend.my dad wasnt like this not drunk.

If it's a serious relationship then you might as well drag your boyfriend into the house sooner or later, so they can meet...having 2 jobs and going to class isn't an excuse... he still finds time to date you right? So stopping by the house for 30 minutes isn't gonna kill him. As for your dad, he is never gonna change... old people are set in their ways... just deal with him the nicest way you can.

Your dad has more pressing issues than your bf. He is an alcoholic. He does however have good intentions. He wants to make sure your bf puts you ahead of his own agenda. My advice is to slow down. See other ppl. Tell dad that he is not your bf anymore, but you are still dating. You are young and he is busy. If you two are still interested in each other 6mos down the road (and you havent met someone else) then start again. By then he should speak english and hopefully have more time for you-and dad should have had time for him to grow on him...

I hate to be so obvious, but did you ever think about moving, or never seeing you dad on Fridays? Ignore him, you are 24, what are you waiting for?

u'r bf must b very busy. pero he still needs to make some time to meet w/ ur parents. maybe he's scared, tell him to b extra polite n have a brief talk w/ ur parents. it's just much more respectful, so that ur parents know that he's aware that they care about u.
Good luck

Get out of the house. You are old enough to be on your own.

you are 24 yrs old?
if so, then move out and start living your own life..
Pay your own bills and you can date whomever you wish at any time you want to..
As long as you live wth your parents and are not financially supporting yourself, they can put down rules as to what happens under their roof and you are obliged to follow them..
