OK - first things first. Its time to tell your boyfriend who your Dad is. Explain why you were there and apologise for the 'scene'. You can't keep it hidden and it will help your boyfriend understand things - not so bad - and he might even see it as a positive and have respect for your situation.

As for your Dad expecting you to 'do better' you have plenty of time to settle down and in the meantime I think you are free to date who you like.

Its time for you to try and start being an independent young woman with a mind of your own and part of this is managing the sometimes difficult expectations of parents v partners.
