I talked to my dad after you called.
basically the main things are, he doesn't want me going alone to the other side of the world to be with people he doesn't know, and that I don't know in real life.
and he also has a problem with you loaning me so much money.
mainly that he thinks that if I'm not responsible enough to raise the money myself, how am I going to pay it back? and how am I going to deal with travelling alone to a foreign country? etc.

doesn't sound good :(

I was rather afraid of that.

(and why isn't my focus following me?)

well... you could buy something from me... want a bass guitar? :D
it helped him to see the amount of trust we have with each other on the forum.
so now it's not as much "you don't know these people" as "people are different online than in real life" :rolleyes:
yea, exactly... he's got nothing against you personally, btw... he said you sounded really nice, etc. :]

I cannot say he's wrong.
