Going on two years with my Dad
Im a 23 year old female in a loving, consentual relationship with my Dad. He is 45.
My Dad raised me as a single father from the time I was 12 years old. My mom made some bad descissions that led to divorce and ultimately, my Dad getting sole custody if me. He dated here and there but his main concern was my well being.
I made it all the way through high school, and started working soon after graduation. We lived a normal life, we both worked and shared houshold chores.
Things started to change when I was 20.
I saw him differently than I ever had before.
I had a huge crush on him. I tried to keep it to myself but it wasn't easy and he saw through it. After a while he started showing signs of a mutual attraction.
On my 21st birthday rather than our regular father/daughter night out, I suggested we call it a date, he went with it and it was a really great time. At the end of the night we kissed. After that, we kissed frequently and we got to that point of discussing our situation and what we were going to do about our feelings for each other.
We decided to move forward and see how it goes. It was a good descission. I couldn't be happier.
