 Yeah, my parents mostly my dad wouldn't let me date boys until I was 16. You are under dad's roof so you must abide by dad's rules. The only thing you can do is ask, but when he says no he means no.

If that's not good enough for your dad, well then TOUGH! If you're a freshman in high school you're old enough to go out on a date. Dont let your overprotective dad run your life, be reasonable by giving him details of what you'll do when you're out, but don't let him keep you from living your life. It may take a few times of you going out at night for him to let up, but you can't give in or he'll just keep controlling you. It's easier for parents to take the lazy, easy road out of keeping their kids locked in the house just so they don't have to worry about them. And that is extremely selfish parenting, and sends kids the wrong message, that they are not trustworthy.

 Not much you can do, but ask and accept what you Dad tells you, be it NO or Yes.
