writes: Dear friends,I'm in love with my girlfriend and things between us are really great ! But now I need to ask u guys about what to do about my dad. She really wants him to like her... He knows that we are friends ( he's not to happy about that either) and any talks with him to tell him that it's love sends him into a foul mood. We are rather conservative and he doesn't like the thought of girlfriend and boyfriend. Moreover he has issues with the girl's parents. He feels that they would interfere in our family life after marriage. Also he thinks my girl is spoiled and petted and has no value for money. He thinks that her mother is trying to get my girlfriend married into our house by hook or crook. These all aleegations are baseless and when i told my gf and her mother that this is the way he feels, they were deeply hurt.. I felt very bad too. He dosen't say anything or even try to explain to me..which makes it worse. He just goes into a foul and silent mood. I don't know what to do anymore. He won't even listen to any explanations. I'm really really afraid that after 4 years of our relationship (she doesn't want to get married till age of 25..she's 21 now), he will say no to me and her union. although it can go the other way as well, I can't help but have negative thoughts!

Your Dad sounds like a nightmare. Is he still so mean and rude and over bearing, and disrespectful towards the family of your girlfriend and to you girlfriend?
And have you managed to stay close to your girlfriend, despite the nasty rude pressure from your Dad?
if you are still with your girlfriend then I say 'all power to you'
And if it did not work out then commisserations to you
Sorry that you did not get replies at the time, But it seems like that must have been a very busy month.
Regards
Abella
