It is done! ANd it was not great at all:mad:

I though it would be a nice relaxing, slightly fun walk up a mountain/hill. No it was not. The girls father had to come along since he deemed the place 'unsafe' Now I don't know about you but that is pretty low. And you can imagine how little happened having this older man crawling on your back all the time.

As for her sarcasm in the first sms, I have shrugged it off. No need to have any worries or such. But our current little 'issue' is of a greater magnitude. It really displeases me but what could I have done in the circumstances?
 
Best thing to do in that situation is give him equal attention. Is he a nice guy? Did he just lurk behind you and not say anything? Was he talkative? Was she talkative? Talk to both of them during the walk...family stuff, their interests, etc.

In other words, did you perceive the day as bad because he was there? Or did she have a good time regardless? :confused: :)
 
Just out of interest, how old are you (and the girl), Jasonbot?

If you want to go on another hike with the girl again, why not put it subtly and play along with the dad, ask him where he thinks a safer place to hike would be.

He will appreciate you asking him, think that you are responsible, that respect his wishes, and will hopefully name a couple of places where you two can be alone! :)
