There's this girl I've been seeing regularly for a while, and I'm at the point now where I really want to make her my girlfriend. The other weekend I had a nice night planned for us (dinner and movie sorta thing) but when she asked her parents if she could go, they were shocked at the idea of her dating and got all over-protective. Now I'm not allowed to see her at all outside of school until I have dinner with her parents at their house on a date that is yet to be determined.
The problem is that she occupies almost my every waking thought. This is painful for me that I have to wait until a date is decided upon that I can meet her family to get approval to date their daughter. And I know this isn't as painful for her and I'm trying to hide my impatience but I'm doing a crappy job at it.
Her dad's a farmer so much of this rests on whether or not he likes me. I imagine him pointing a shotgun at me as I walk up to their doorstep. I don't know if that's realistic or if I'm just paranoid.
I'm gonna kinda split off into 2 questions here:
For anyone who is or has dated a farmers daughter, any advice for first impressions and etiquette or whatever?
Considering she isn't feeling as strongly as I do on the matter... is this just infatuation... not the real thing?
