FighterNoLover agony aunti had the same problem when i was 14

but actually my dad liked my boyfriend

mayb you should try becoming realli close to this boy like yur best friend and mayb when you guys doo try to make his parents like youu so if anythiiing both of your parents would be cool and they would actually be able to belive hes your age thats the only thing i can think of right now cause i was like best friends with my bf so our parents were cool too and they didnt have a problem with us being together they actually encouraged it...

Mystic Moo agony auntHe's probably worried about you. Over-protectiveness is common in parents, especially fathers. I've heard in the past that dads don't want their 'little girls' to grow up too fast (or at all!) and knowing that you have a boyfriend has made him realise that you're not a baby anymore.

He probably let you go out with boys in the past knowing that you were younger and it wouldn't have lasted and now you are 14 it might last.

Maybe your boyfriend looks old for his age and your dad might think he's going to take advantage of you.

You could either convince your dad to give this boy a chance or if that fails then say you've dumped him but don't dump him if you don't want. You don't need him to know everything. Good luck.
