*DADDY'S TEN RULES OF DATING* [Guys take note.] :p

Rule One:

If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.

Rule Two:

You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so as long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.

Rule Three:

I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots.

Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes to big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact come off during the course of you date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.

Rule Four:

I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a "Barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.

Rule Five:

It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is: "early"

Rule Six:

I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you cry.

Rule Seven:

As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process than can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?

Rule Eight:

The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to entice my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka -- zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which features chain saws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

Rule Nine:

Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a potbellied, balding, middle-aged, dimwitted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless God of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.

Rule Ten:

Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy near Hanoi. When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as you pull into the driveways you should exit the car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car -- there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine.

I particularly like rule #6, ....if you make her cry, I'll make you cry! :roflmao:

The nail gun idea was a good one. The current styles have me baffled. Guys clothes are cool when around their ankles and girls clothes are cool when up around their, well, mammary area. Wuz up wid dat? Jeez, we all have navals and IMO, they are all ugly.

As a father who has suffered every teen moment alongside his ex - teen age daughter, I find the rules a bit on the soft side.

I have 8 & 11 year old daughters.
I'm dreading the day some kid shows up at my door and asks for my darling child.
I guess I see myself standing there, I remember what I was like.

Heh, that list bring back memories....one of the girls I dated back in high school.....well her dad was just like this. He took me to the basement to show off his hunting "trophies", and varaious markmanship awards. I think he didn't like it when he saw the indifferent look on my face...threats just don't impress me.

She was home on time, but that's just proper behavior....plus it was her older brother I was more scared of :p

hehe me too, but I tend to laugh alot when I'm scared :p

Actually the part I'm scared of is actually asking the girl out, I always get embarrassed then i can't talk etc. etc.

Serious question to Applehead57 & MtnBiker66, and anyone else who cares to express themselves...

What would you do/how would you react if when you answer the door tomorrow night, your daughters date is a girl and not a boy as you are presupposing for her.

There is only one right answer.... the truth.

i'm not sure if it reflects badly on the girls i have dated but most of their fathers (and mothers) were cool, some even gave money to make sure that their daughters 'had a good time' when i was a penniless student.

So, then you are saying, if I'm understanding you correctly...That if your daughter was lesbian, you would put your personal preferences ahead of her happiness? Is that right?

My Ex once accused (maybe only asked, I got it from my daughters point of view) her if she was a lesbian.

Now, whenever she can, my daughter does what she can to promte the Lesbian lifestyle in front of my ex just to make her uncomfortable.




I trained her well. :D

Alrighty, totally off the subject, but it was going around behind my back at work that I was gay. I don't ever have a girlfriend, I dress nice, like to look nice, anal about some things, pretty much all your stereotypical crap. It got back to me and now I do what I can to keep the mystery going. I was going to bring a buddy of mine to our Christmas party, but I opted not to do that one. Anyways, good on your daughter for acting that way. Ignorant and nosy people irritate me.

Back to the subject at hand. One of our sales reps came in and told us a story about how he told his daughter's boyfriend that there would be problems if he did any wrong doing to her, (he wasn't too subtle about it). The kid went to his parents and they called our rep and thanked him. I don't have kids, but I think if you would raise your daughters/sons to be honest, respectful and polite, they would be able to handle themselves.

Do you watch "Rescue me"? I kind of imagine I'd take Dennis Leary's approach - public disappointment and private joy. :D

Having been a teenage boy once, my opinion at the time was that most weren't worth the "scrap value" of the basic elements that made up their bodies. My opinion hasn't changed much since!

Oh yeah, one of my favorite shows.

"Most" is that females in general or just lesbians? ;)

this reminds me of "Bad Boys 2" when the kid came to the door, and martin lawrence had a gun in his hand and the kid almost pissed himself.

My daughters are 6 and 8 years old.

If my parents were meeting someone for the first time the guy would have to come in for coffee or a Coke and he would be asked how fast he planned on driving. My parents trusted my judgement. They had me set my own curfew for the date; so if I wasn't so sure about the guy myself, they would tell him I had to be home early!

I've got three boys (none teenaged yet), but when it's time they'll treat their girlfriends right or they'll get my boot up their arses.
