Hehehe funny conversation, but you made an effort to do something with your dad and that's great because it's what you want to do.
I am exactly the same as you, watching golf is the most boring thing on earth but I quite like playing a few holes or hitting a few balls at the driving range.
I'm sure with your dads friend there with you there wasn't much time to talk, maybe suggest some golf just you and him.
You might find dad likes to play golf just to get away from the females in the house ;)
haha! you're right, I am a slacker! I keep telling myself to get it done sooner but I always end up waiting til the last minute! I need to change that!
Good for you! Glad you did something with your dad! And I think the conversation will come easier in the future.
As for Courtney, it's nice that you wanted to spare her feelings, but if you want to spend time alone, feel free to say that. Nothing wrong with it. If she has a problem with it, it's her problem and she needs to learn to deal with it.
When I feel I have to start making up excuses to rationalize my behavior to people, that's the first sign of losing authenticity in our relationship. It begins to build distance.
Yes, getting up at 7 on a weekend sucks. Waking up even earlier is worse. Such was my summer job. :/
If you understand that he might do it as a way to get some time alone, then somehow tell him you don't expect to go everytime, you just appreciated him taking you that time.
I have a feeling, however, that he liked you being there.
