Okay. So I live with my dad and stepmother, Fran. She is, by far, my favorite of the women my dad has married or been with. Dad raised me. I understand that he is protective and he wants to see me do right.

I love that old man. But something I don't understand about him is why he expects me to trust him enough to tell him guy stuff.

He is not stupid. He knows that he just wants to hear about that stuff so that he can know how much he needs to hold me back.

I don't want to be held back. I want to go out and explore! I want to live! I know that I am going to get hurt and that he doesn't want that to happen.

But I want that learning experience. I want to gain all  the wisedom I can before I settle down to have kids.

But he is dead set on holding me back. When I don't tell him about things I get in trouble. Which forces him to not trust me.

He and I have no trust between us. That hurts a bit. But I can't do anything about it unless I want to be stuck at home until I am out of high school.

What is someone suppose to do in this situation. I know I am not the only girl who goes through this that not possible.

SIDE NOTE!: I bet in a few years I am going to look back at this and laugh. Probably even say, I wish I listened to that old man. But That's kinda the point of growing up right? To look back at your life and laugh at hoe childish your were and how much ypu changed.
