How do I tell my dad about my boyfriend

If the new guy's really nice and your relationship is going well, then surely your dad won't be too bothered. Maybe just subtly hint that you have a new boyfriend rather than telling him straight up. Just don't leave it too long!

maybe its the age gap. dads are pretty protective over daughters and he might be uncomfortable with that.but if he like the guy i dont think he'll have a problem with it.

that's why I'm so afraid of telling him, because it is a big age gap. bigger than the last one, and I was a minor with the last one

I know my mom was weary but you are an adult. To be completely fair dads will always hate the boyfriend. At least at first. But generally the most important thing to them is that their daughter is happy. As long as this man is respectful and makes you happy, dad will try his best to get along with him, if you ask. But honesty really is the best approach.

You're 18, you're an adult, you're not obliged to tell him nor are you obliged to dump your guy if your dad doesn't approve. Not saying you should disregard your dads opinions and advice, but you're an adult.

Well just tell your dad that you've met this really awesome guy that you really care about a lot. And it would make you really happy if he would be open to your new relationship since this guy means a lot to you. and if you are no longer a minor then the age difference isn't really that big a of a deal, since its legal.But I can understand your dad being very wary of up. I wouldn't bring up the age difference unless he specifically asks about it. And just explain it to him that you are an adult now and you understand why it would make him somewhat upset but you really care about this guy and you can handle it and be mature about it.

Yoooooooo! tell him! and make sure your dad knows that your dude is super respectable. and you can have a blast scaring your boyfriend about your overprotective father, it'd keep him on his toes and it'd make him want to get on your dad's good side if he's serious about you. I say nothing terrible can come out of telling your dad.
