Okay, her dad is right, sorry. She needs to go to college and be on her own. Let her go to college for one year and not live together, if you still want to move in together go for it. She is young and so are, don't rush things you have plenty of time. You have no idea what you are getting yourselves into, believe me. You will find out things about eachother and deal with things that you never had to before. Once shes 18, theres nothing her father can do anyway.

I imagine her dad doesn't like you because you don't have a plan for her future past your own selfish needs. If you really cared about this woman, you would be encouraging her to get an education that will help her not be dependent on other people. You have no idea if you will ever play football professionally, or if you will just play while in school and then not have a profession when college ends.
And you just want her to move in with you. You don't say a word about marriage. Do you think her father believes she is worth so little that the best she can do for herself is shack up with some guy who doesn't respect her enough to be concerned about how that looks?
Being a grown man is about being responsible and doing what is in the best interest of the person he/she loves. I don't think there is anything you can do to "make" him like someone who treats his daughter, the light of his heart, like she is a common tramp. Look up the words, character, honor and respect. Maybe that's what her father wants for his daughter. Why don't you?

I am sure its not you he doesnt like. Any guy thats she would want she would want to move in with, he wouldnt like. I think its kind of non-conservative and trashy when two people who arnt even engaged move in together.
My sister and her boyfriend have been going out for a year now and they dont even sleep in the same house.

are you sure her dad doesn't like you? Or maybe he just would like to see her take it more slowly before jumping into a live-in arrangement? Maybe its nothing against you - she's very young to move in with a guy. He'd probably like to see her spend some time living on her own first.
