My mom died a year and like, 2 months ago and my dad already has a new girlfriend. It upsets me, and i have told him that it does. She took me out to dinner tonight and i could tell she didn't really like me at all.
How can i work this out?

Try to bond with your new mother... make sure she really doesn't like you...
But, at the same time confront your father and straight up tell him that you're his daughter, that you should come first, that you would be deeply hurt if he goes with this woman and not thinking of how you feel. Tell him you're not ready for a new mother figure in your life, that you need your dad to stand by your side still, that he is your father after all. And, don't mention that she doesn't seem to be taking a liking to you (because he could only backfire and disagree)... it'd do you no good.

You can't actually escape this situation.What I would tell you is to focus on something else to drive away your attention for it. Set very high and ambitious goals for yourself and work it up to the top and get busy for college application and indulge yourself in community activity,sports or arts.This is really effective since the only solution you have right now is just divert your attention away from it...

Step i understand your fealings,you think your dad is suppose to stay single the rest of his life.But your dad needs the company
of a lady friend.
Your mother woulden't want your dad to be alone and lonely.It don't mean that his friend is going to me your step mom.If you
love your dad help him to be happy.
Its ok to be friends with his lady.Call herby her first name,let her be nice but not bribe
you to like her.If she tries just tell her you
don't like bribery.it's dishonest
don't be scared to talk to your dad and her
about how you feal,.

Again... talk to your father about this. If you are willing to make this work maybe you should all go to counseling.
