My oldest daughter and her boyfriend were friends for a couple of years before they started going out.
When they first started going out I told him in all honesty

You may think I am a nice guy and that we are friends, but I am giving you fair notice if you ever hurt my daughter all bets are off.
My daughters mean everything to me and You will mean nothing to me if you hurt them.
Believe me you don't want to be a problem that means nothing to me
