Tell him it won't just be you and him but your other friends too, since your other friend and her bf are going. (Don't tell him her's is coming too). If he says no, try inviting some more friends to make sure you won't do anything with him like that.. or at least tell him that. :)

Trust me Hun, my dad always said the same thing to me.. well kinda.. he use to say that he once was a guy and knows how they are... I would say, "Hey dad can I go to the mall with my friends (for school clothes, etc)".. Your in a safe place (well in a sense), it is not like the two of you could do anything risky there (you know what I mean)... And when he asks with who, just say the names... Don't say with my boyfriend..... give him a name rather then the status of that... the word boyfriend makes fathers go crazy.....I am sure your dad trust you.. oh, don't forget to say, "ma said it was okay"

Well just be very honest w/ ur dad. Don't ever give him a motive or reason to not tust U. Tell him u'll call him from time to time so that he know's U are OK and u'll be home by the time he tell's U to. As U grow older U need more freedom ... If he could strech his trust in U just a little more.. U'll prove to him that U make wise decisions and ur more trustworthy when on a date, etc. . .

It sounds like you are daddy's little girl and he doesn't want to lose that. My father was the same way... the best thing to do is to have your dad meet this guy. When your dad sees that he is really a nice guy, he will be less overprotective. Just give your dad some time to get used to the idea of you dating. It's not easy for dad's to let go.

If you are younger than 16, you know you do not need to be hanging out at malls with boys. Have patience, honey. You will grow up so quickly, anyway. Ask if they can come over to the house for sandwiches and soft drinks. Okay? Grams

Tell him that you are not alone you are with your best friend who I'm assuming he knows and trusts and that you are with 2 responsible boys and that you will call him at certain periods when you are there. And there is nothing you can do at the mall anyways other than walk around surrounded by people.

Tell your dad that you are going as a group and really do that. Invite to him go to the mall, just keep his distance (not to embarrass you) earn his trust, first and he will allow you to do more the older you get. Plus its your dad and most dads are very protective of their daughters. I would also recommend letting your dad get to know these boys first before you go off anywhere with them.

It can be no longer that he thinks you're going to do anything and i'm sure he does trust you. Boys are sneaky and they may be able to trick women or speak them into doing almost anything. There's rape or blackmail. (no longer pronouncing he would try this.) additionally lies. Like, "Dude, we so hooked up." (and when nothing occurred, however putting out.) there may be so much happening on the planet at present and parents are not taking any probabilities. Sorry lol I watch the lifetime channel lots.

Honestly you cant convince him if he doesn't trust the person you are with. Mental distrust isn't a good thing.
Theres only 1 thing i can suggest. Bring the girl/guy he doesn't trust and have a talk and perhaps that will lighten the distrust load he has on that certain person.
A dinner works too...

you didn't say how old you are, which might be part of his concern. the best way to get your dad to trust you and your boyfriend is to let your dad get to know him. invite your bff and the guys over for pizza and movies on a night when your dad will be around. hang out in the family room or kitchen, so your dad can wander in and talk at his leisure, but you'll still be able to have fun. play board games or cards, even invite your parents to join in. i know it could cause you to feel embarrassed to have the folks around your friends, but the sooner your dad trusts your bf, the sooner you'll be allowed to go out alone with him. trust me. explain it to your friends and they'll be more than happy to oblige.
