Its not sad, its reality. Despite what you may have heard, respect and trust are earned not given. Honestly, if you’re not willing to earn trust then you should date a girl whose family doesn't care. Protective fathers aren’t that way because they just like being an ass to people on a constant basis. They are that way because to many people today are utterly worthless human beings that aren’t worth the time it takes to wipe your ass.

Look at all the post on here about women who ended up with the wrong guy and they regret it. A smart father can sometimes prevent this, not always but definitely sometimes. All you have to do is prove your worth; it really should not bother you at all. The best people to be around are the ones who make you earn trust. Why? It is because they are the ones that are worth your trust usually. Do you really want to hang around people who don’t really give a shit about the people they say they love and care for? No, in time you will appreciate that they made you earn their trust. One day, you will grow up to be a father who may prevent your daughter from getting pregnant and left alone and miserable because she got too involved with the wrong guy.
