Meeting your daughters first boyfriend

[rivermobster]

So you deprived him of the full parenting experience then?
That's not very nice....

We tried!

We really liked the first guy she was going out with.

Then one evening I came home late and she was laying on the couch in her beautiful, awesome formal dress and make-up soaked tears quietly running down her face.

Looks cute as hell and a pic would have gone viral,, but instead I bent an ear and maybe we could figure out the way through the sadness together.

The guy was nice, but a big bore. She was having more fun with all his guy friends at the prom, and he was a cigar store Indian standing there the whole time like a dope.

She realized then he wasn't the guy for her and knew telling him that would really hurt him.
We figured a way to let him know she wanted to see others and it worked out good.

I was a 60 second hero.

Both and college ones a senior about the graduate neither one of them is bad on the eyes they’re am-Asian. Had a few dates usually no more than one to three figure out the guys don’t care much for them to because they’re more busy talking to their friends are on a computer. Keep in mind the older one of mine is a bit of a geek, but stone beautiful she just walks away and calls it a day good for her. She tells him sometimes that busy on studying I haven’t got time for nonsense. All the friends that have big-time boyfriends have nothing but drama they know they live in two separate houses with other frat girls off-campus.

… I can’t remember whether I’ve already posted part of this but… I dated a girl for quite a while, whose father was… Well, he had a trucking company… and was directly affiliated with the Mickey Cohen era guys… Sica brothers, etc…. The real deal mafioso….

… I think this was before I was dating her… But myself and a couple of friends had a few beers and went over to her house..: we tapped on the front window… She came to the window and said go around to the back… nothing was going to happen… Just some drunk kids visiting a pretty cool girl …

…I don’t know whether we made it around to the back… But the next thing we knew we were in handcuffs… Guy across the street was a sheriff… And he had called her father… And asked him what to do with these guys… Her father said call the Lapd. .

…Well, guess where the three of us spent the night… Foothill division LAPD jail…
… I am still really good friends with her to this day

I went thru this a while ago but we made him go out to dinner with me first. He had to call me and select the date time location, I ignored his call for a day or so. I picked him up and paid for the dinner but it gave me one on one time and I clearly got the point across that he was asking to spend time with one of the most important things in my life that I cherish and would die or kill for. His grandmother loved this and invited me in before we left his hose.

Sounds like a solid program. I bet that will weed out booty call wannabe's lol
It also sends some very clear messages to your daughter of her value and worth.
Good job dad.

The boys bringing girls home and on trips the wife or one of our girls had to always be in their presence.

Yep chaperoned.
That was my girls doing. What they absolutely insisted on and they followed through 24/7. Strictly watched.

I didn’t wake up to how aggressive and competitive girls can be until we had girls of our own. Our girls spotted that especially towards Maynard.

Our oldest boy and our youngest lucked out with good looks and girls throw themselves at them.

Middle kid looks like Napoleon Dynamite and acts like Arnie Grape so no concern there.

Visiting Girls will all pile together in the master bedroom in a king bed that's no issue with girls and the boys slept in the opposite end Toy Hauler garage.
Alice and I between sleeping in the living room.

Mom and sister sleep-radar scanning the trailer all night long. They could be sound asleep,, but they are still scanning for illegal movements.

Had to do something similar a couple of times, it was torture.

I would take out my 9 inch fillet knife and start sharpening it when boys came into the house. Something like 20 years later i meet a guy and he says do you remember me? I said nope. He goes I sure remember you! You were sharping that big ol knife when your daughter introduced me to you. I just smiled.

I had a dad pull a 10in blade on me and try to corner me, I looked at him and said

"What are you gonna do with that, kill me? While you're in jail the next guy will come along and have his way with with her and you won't be able to do anything."

He had a lot of respect for me after that.

Thats really all it is. I'm sure i'll catch a heap of crap for this but...all the sharpening knives, cleaning guns and rambo shit is just for the dads to feel good about themselves. Ego boost to feel good about protecting your daughter when in all reality NOTHING is going to happen to said kid. Now if your angel was harmed in any way, thats another story.

My oldest daughter was a sophmore and my son was a senior in high school. And there was this guy, a senior, who wanted to and did date her and take her to dances. I didnt' know much about this kid and along the way he ended up causing problems with my daughter. I told my son to go take this guy aside and explain to him that he needed to back off and get lost. It was interesting because this guy got the message. My son is 6-3 210lbs and this kid is 6-4 maybe 205lbs. My son said he told him there would be one loser, and he, my son, wasnt going to be that becasue he didnt want me to chap his ass when he got home.

This. I read some of the stories posted in here with all the tough guy shit and just laugh. If any of the fathers of girls I've dated did that to me, I wouldn't ever have been able to take them seriously because that just tells me a lot about their character and flat out shows how big of an idiot they are. It would have also told me that the girl in question was likely also raised to be an idiot and she's ultimately not worth the effort.

The guys who really will do something and actually know how don't advertise. Maybe a small reasonable comment during the course of normal conversation like, "Treat her well is all I ask" is put out there, but that's it. They know surprise is the biggest advantage and you don't telegraph your intentions by being some dumbass blowhard.

Cleaning your guns and otherwise brandishing weapons or puffing out your chest. Come on, you clowns. Do you really expect your daughter is never going to date a guy? Don't be a dick about it.

Nailed it.. and the kids are gonna do what they are gonna do anyways..


Anyone remember when you were 14? A boy that age would fuck a knot hole in a tree if he could get away with it and the girls aren’t any better.

To the point though for anyone that thinks their quiet geeky little kid isn’t like that.. just remember the phrase “this one time at band camp”

Best you can do is raise em right and hope they make good decisions

Well I finally met the kid tonight, they are on spring break and wanted to hang out. I had my daughter invite him over to the airport for a flying lesson in the simulators. The kid showed up with flowers for the girl, and a solid handshake and eye contact for me. I set them up with a CFI and he gave them both an intro flight lesson with about 30 minutes of whiteboard instruction followed by another 30 minutes in the simulator.

Just so happened a few buddies dropped in unexpectedly, one is a giant dude who’s retired LEO, the other is retired military officer, both have a no nonsense presence, the kid looked them in the eye, shook hands. Both visits were unplanned, but I could see the kid realizing that there are some serious dudes in this girls orbit. I was very chill with the kid, after the flight lesson I took them out for pizza and got to engage in conversation with the boy quite a bit. Turns out he’s not that into cello but his father is a music teacher and wanted him to play an instrument, his deal is track, hes hoping to make varsity next season as a sophomore, 4.0 student and wants to be an engineer. All in all he seems like a solid kid, and his folks are on him like white on rice, you could tell LOL

 

[Flyinbowtie]

Sounds like a squared away kid, D. It will be fun for you to watch and see how this goes.

 

[wzuber]

Sounds like a potentially cool kid to have around doing projects with. Kinda challenge his inate skills and abilities to see where his talents land. Check his engineering math apptitude etc. Teach him fun, cool basic mechanical engineering type stuff.
