Ok I'm sorry I only read about half of that because slang gives me a headache. But something along the lines of your dad disapproves because he thinks white boys take things more casually while your mother says it's puppy love and therefore not a big deal?
Well first of all, you're 14, odds are against you marrying this guy and being with him forever.
Now as for your dad, I mean I guess he has a problem with you dating. Try to get to the exact root of the problem, why does he think dating is a bad idea, why is having relationships before you get married a bad idea.
Sounds like a real cultural clash. Thats always so hard. Would he feel differently if you were going out with a guy of your same race? Also the fact that your mum seems to be more open minded about it, but she can't convince him. Do you have any aunties or uncles on your dads side who he respects, who could take your side a bit more?
