No, it means that you are 16 year old who is out of shape. And just because he is "fat" doesnt mean his is out of shape... and you cant and dont win in everything you do......and your dad doesnt have to "let" you win... sorry but life isnt like that....... you win some you lose alot..........

Sounds like your dad has played tennis a bit. A lot of people who haven't played tennis before would not be very good. You need to practice. 37 is not that old (might not seem like it, but there are professional sportsmen who don't retire until in their thirties when you think about it) and your dad is probably fit even if overweight. I think it is great you can play tennis with your dad. Hopefully you keep at it and he can teach you how to play and you will get used to it (and probably would start winning a few games before too long, and improve your fitness). It could be a good and fun way to spend time together. Good luck.

Absolutely Not!! Remenber that you have never played the game before!! He is used to playing tennis and working those arms and legs and he is practised in the game of tennis. So be not sad but instead,be glad that your father took the time to have some quality time with you! I feel certain that he enjoyed time spent went you. Its not whether you win or lose or are fat or thin,it's all about an enjoyable time with each other.

You've never played tennis before, so you really shouldn't feel bad that he won. But I would recommend you get more practice in to improve your game.

No. I'm 38 and I can outrun my 13 year old and the 25 year old down the street. And the 25 year old is a track star. And I'm a smoker.
