I know someone that is engaged to a great guy. He has an adult daughter that lives 1400 miles away. The daughter is visiting him now. My friend said that when they all go out somewhere (like the grocery store, etc...) the father and daughter are all huggy, huggy, and almost look like they are a couple (my friend ends up walking behind). I didn't believe it until I saw them at an ice cream stand hugging with her head on his shoulder and his head on hers (not just for a second either). What do you all think about this? Should she worry?

I wouldn't worry - his daughter lives 1400 miles away. How often do they get to see each other? If they're a close knit family, they're probably storing up all the hugs they can until the next visit rolls around.

She should consider herself lucky.

Lucky???

she should worry!!!

..... about her petty jealousy....

her low self esteem...

That makes sense. I hope you're right. Thank you!!!!

I only wish I could see my father just one more time in my life, I would hug him so tight. I would kiss his cheek and tell him over an over how much I love him, I would love to go out to dinner with my father just one more time...

Let her have all the hugs she can get for some day there are no more. And Moms hugs are not the same! I love my mom but I have not seen her in 9 yrs so all i get are internet hugs and phone kisses.

I don't really think it's jealousy or even low self esteem. I think it would be sick to be jealous over a man's daughter. It seems like she's worried about an unnatural relationship between them. Did I mention that his daughter was taken away from him when she was a child during the custody battle?....Sorry I forgot about that part.

some families are really close like that. i guess it just varies from family to family.

She should consider herself lucky that he has no issue with showin his adult daughter affection cause that means he should have no issue doin the same with her. Has she ever thought of holdin his hand walkin with them while they're all huggy huggy?

Awww....I'm sorry about your Dad. I totally agree with you.

She should get down on her knees and thank the Lord that she has a great guy that loves his children. His daughter lives 1400 miles away how often does he get to see her. I am very close with my kids and I dont' get to see them all that often. I am all over them. If someone was bothered by it I would tell them later days.

I don't think she has Redd. That is a great idea!!! I'm going to pass that on to her. Thanks!!!!

I think the fact that her mind even goes there is sickening. Does she think fathers are incapable of giving and receiving affection from their children? If I was with a woman whose mind automatically went to such a place and I found about it I would relieve her of the worry. I'd deep six her azz in a NY minute.

Perhaps she received no such affection from her father, so she has no experience in the matter.

Age of the adult daughter is??

so shes jealous that the father and child are close?they live that far apart and probably dont get to see each other often. can u say insecurity issues?


sounds like shes the "all eyes on me" kinda person


and yes she should be thankful a man like that loves his kid that much no matter how old they are the couple are together everyday im guessing and how often is the kid home?

really now

sick paranioa, and yet she thinks she should marry him. With thoes types of suspissions. Poor man wonder what else he will have to go through over the next 5 years before the divorce. just my gut reaction.

Well that just clinches it. My ex is VERY close to the girls and I didn't even take them away from him, but up till this year he couldn't see them very often because of distance. It's natural.

I think someone loves and misses her daddy.

Don't even go there on this one. The woman is obviously a daddys' girl and dear ole' dad still sees his lil' princess instead of the grown woman in front of him.

Nothing wrong with loving your children. My baby is 11 but when she reachs 412 and I'm like 897 she will still be my baby.
