Why do Christians have to get creepy?!

You mean like some of the "Contemporary Christian Music" as this this?  It has a "Christian" theme so why would anyone object to it being sung in a worship service?

Yep! That is creepy. Christians can be creepy.
 
Yes, it's creepy

True Story. Our son brought two different girls home in a two year period (age 17-18). I banned both girls from coming back.

The second incident, he was 18. After his first "official" date with her...he came home telling us  "Her father took us to the movies and he paid for it! he's really nice. He invited me over to their house for dinner tomorrow night. Her parents are cool"

I thought, WTH??? Both of had a poker face.Soon I convinced myself maybe he's alright. Just concerned his daughter is might've dated a nutt.

I insisted she come here for dinner instead. It was awful. She's was the Biggest Dingbat on the face of the earth. Teenage girls are my least favorite group of people anyhow. I spent most of the evening in my bedroom. Coaxing him nicely not to see her again was fruitless. So the rubber hit the road and I disallowed him from seeing her, at least while he lived here.Or move.

By law, if anything intimate happened, it would be illegal. And she was a FRUITCAKE

So he informed her. Then she called our house repeatidly. It was scary. Like 4 times in a row crying like crazy cause "they broke up"

For Gods sakes, they'd only been seeing each other for 2 weeks! Then she was in our driveway having some breakdown refusing to leave.

She finally left. So parents, whether you have a girl or a boy, be very cautious.

Now our son is 23, and married to a great girl. Thank God :)

"Let your first couple conversations be mainly about him, and not her. Demonstrate that you really want to get to know him, not just scare him away. Learn his story. Ask about his hobbies. Study his relationships with his friends and family. Don’t be too proud to take some notes while you do"

LOL! Boys if you see your date's Father with a pen and paper in hand, RUN!

I dunno..hope not. Pray alot.
I gave the first one $2000 dollars to go away.
Nicely suggested she save it and move out right at age 18, which she later did.
 
I just ell them that if they mess with my daughter I'll slit them from crotch to eyeball with a dull deer antler. Then I show them my scalp. They're never sure whether it's real or not. Cleaning and loading my Colt Peacemaker in front of them also makes and impression. A .45 Long Colt round is  big bullet. One or two of them have left and not returned. One of the little twerp's father called me all upset because I'd terrified his son. I told that if his son was terrified of me then he wasn't man enough to date my daughter.

*shrug* Piper likes to use provocative language to get people to take notice. It's a good tactic, actually: obviously, it worked. (He didn't write this particular article, but the author has used his tactic.)

The key thesis of his post:

If dad has typically picked, approved, conceded, or disappeared - what if instead dad discipled? What if a daughter’s father took some responsibility not just in vetting a young man, but in investing in him and preparing him to make much of Jesus in dating and marriage?

It's a very good point, actually.

My daughter's beaux will not only put up with my eccentricities, they'll like them.  Otherwise they're not coming back.

Your methods sound a great deal like Tim Lee's (I fondly remember a post of his on the old FFF about this topic that involved camouflage, hiding in the bushes and a Ka-bar) . I think I would be the same way if not more so. Perhaps that is why the Lord gave us three sons and no daughters. 
 
I misread the title at first. I thought uh oh, I'm creepy!

I never dated their boyfriends but I "dated" all of my daughters.
 
John Mark has called a few guys that were interested in my daughter. For some reason they chose not to date her!
