Sweetie, I think that you are going to have to be patient on this one... your bf's father is probably having a really hard time dealing with his son being gay.... His father might be putting a bit of pressure on him, perhaps hoping that your bf might just be going thru a phase... you love him and if he returns the feeling, be patient and things will work out. Although dont expect his father to welcome you with open arms, some parents find it hard to accept that their children are not hetro.Honeygir.

I think that at the end of the day his father has got to come to terms with the fact that his son is gay and that is his chosen path in life. There is no reason why you should split up from him, you love each other and want to be together, so don't let his Dad come between that. You still get these problems sometimes in straight relationships where one or the other parent's for whatever reason disaproves. But the question is whether the love is strong enough to push past these obstacles. Also his Dad has got to realise that he is a grown man who is free to make his own decisions, i would just give it time to be honest, im sure he will come round in the end.
All the best.
