and then hung out wit the wrong people and was influenced to do something so messed up. those some people started running their mouth when we got back from miami and its just like damn. parents sent me to boarding school for a month, but then they took me back. my moms cool with me, but my dad is still not really saying much to me. i know he cares bout me still, but damn it just really sucks
iight, just wanted to know if anybody had gone through a similar thing, im just trying to wait it out until my dad talks to me again normally

Don't worry, hun... your dad will come around eventually. You put yourself in a dangerous situation with a stranger and could have got yourself hurt or pregnant or infected with something. He's just disappointed right now... you're a teenager... you made a bad decision... that's to be expected... I'm sure he made some of his own when he was your age.
I think he's handling the situation poorly - ignoring you isn't going to solve anything or to help you learn why what you did was wrong, so that you can avoid situations like that in the future... what you need right now is guidance, and it'd be better if it came from your father rather than your peers who obviously don't have a clue... that's something he needs to realize. Its difficult for a lot of fathers to have conversations with their daughters about sex, aside from the "just don't do it" speech... they sometimes forget what it's like to be young and curious and impressionable... and the thought of their "little girl" having sex... whew lawd! They don't even want to THINK about that! But that's where they mess up... avoiding the situation isn't going to make it go away... who else are you supposed to turn to..?
You made a bad decision... you know it... he knows it... but he may not
know that you know it, though. Have you tried talking to him about it..?
