Mixed Signals

I am not really sure what just happened… My dad was talking to me about dating. You see, I went to a high school of about 100 people. People I have known since pre-school. You can understand why I never wanted to date in high school… Any who, back to the story. I am not sure, but I think that my dad was saying that I should have dated. I am off to college this fall. I told my dad not to worry because I would date in college. He said that that was what he was worried about. However, then he was going on about how A couple of the guys in my high school were nice. WHAT?! Is telling me that I he wanted me to date in school? I really do not understand. I was busy on having fun with my friends and getting really good grades. I guess having most of my college paid for by scholarships is nothing compared to wasting my time and effort on a guy I do not actually like… I know everybody says this, but I will never understand parents. They say they do not want something, but then make it clear that they do want something else.
