    So my dad and I were making trips to stores and whatnot today.

    I forgot what we were talking about exactly, but then the conversation was kind of like this:
    Dad: Do you have a boyfriend?
    Me: No. :icon_redf
    Dad: Would you tell me if you had one?
    Me: I don't know.

    Then, he was letting me know that he wouldn't be mad and that I'm 17 or something. The next bit was what surprised me.

    Dad: Do you have a girlfriend?
    Me: No. :icon_redf
    Dad: Would you tell me if you had one?
    Me: I don't know.

    Then, he was telling me that he wouldn't be mad at me. I was kind of shocked. (Some of you may be offended with this next part.) He told me that he would be happy as long as we both look like girls. I don't really identify as anything personally, but whatever.

    Now... I know some folks would be mad still because of what he said at the end, but to be honest, I'm relieved. At least I can someday HAVE a girlfriend without being so afraid.

    At first I thought you meant that your dad would be happy as long as both your dad and you liked girls...but I realized I had just skipped a word. And then I thought you meant that he'd be happy as long as you and your dad looked like girls. Which made pretty much no sense :grin: .

    Well, it's a start, even if it's far from perfect. It's great that he's cool with you dating girls. And, who knows, maybe he'll improve even more some day?
