Early in the morning on day three he texted me saying that we can't go out anymore because his dad won't let him. He said we could still be friends but I like him so much more than that, and he told me he liked me too. I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

Hi there,I'm suspicious if this guy is using "dad" as an excuse; maybe trying to break the relationship in a way that doesn’t force him to confront his feelings with you. If so, consider yourself lucky that such a weenie is out of your life no matter how much you may currently like him.Regardless if I'm right or not, if he isn't going to go out with you again than he isn't, no matter the reason. Despite how you feel it is healthier at this point to move forward and onward. It is perfectly normal to feel hurt and to dwell on this a little; after all it is a sudden break without satisfactory resolution. However, know that you will have more relationships in the future. I wish there was more to be said to mend the hurt and confusion, but there are no Band-Aids for the heart. Except ice-cream. =)Hope this helps!

If you really like him, you'll still really like him later, when his father decide he's old enough to date. I know that's hard to hear. Until then, you could just be friends.
On another note, it is okay for a girl to ask a guy out. It will send a message that you are an independent young woman who wants to have a say in her relationships. Although it may bother some more traditional guys, others may even find it attractive. It that's who you are, it's who you are.

One more piece of advice: Guys ask girls out, please don't ask guys out. Be a a good girl and classy. Let the guys ask you out.
