<human>: My dad won't let me date or go out with my friends. It was all fine until I started meeting some really nice guys online (and at school). This really nice guy asked me out and I really want to go but I'm too scared to ask dad. He might hit me or get abusive, who knows... It wouldn't be the first time. 
Mom can't do much, she's afraid of him too and doesn't want me to date either because they say I should focus on school first and date only after I finish college and get a job. 
I feel lonely and I fell I'm losing many great opportunities. What should I do?

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: Dad won't let me go out or date boys, it's ruining my happiness and ruining my life as I keep getting heart-broken or losing great opportunities.
