Please GIRLS only..... Ages from 16 and up.?

Question

I'm 16 years old. And I still love to sit with my father and have him hold me when we was tv. And before you say anything IT"S NOTHING DO TO WITH SEX FEELING. My father is a pastor. My firends tell me I'm sick. I just love my father so much. My question is are there any other girls that do this with there fathers?

Answer 1

girl that sounds nasty but it only means that you love your father very much and its nothing wrong with that so keep hanging with your father and let your relationship grow

Answer 2

There's nothing wrong with that. It's beautiful that you feel so close with your father at your age...most families only dream of that type of father/daughter relationship these days. And just to let you know, I'm 25 and I'm not afraid to curl up on my daddy's lap once in a while...sometimes you just need to make yourself feel safe in this world. I was so lucky to have been adopted as an infant into a family where I grew up knowing that I was daddy's little girl and that any time I needed him, he would pick me up and brush me off and help me feel safe again. If more people could say the same, this world would be a much better place for everyone. Cherish the relationship that you have with your father and never let it go. Your friends are probably just jealous because they wish they could be so close with their families!

Answer 3

At sixteen your dad needs to be setting limits. I understand you love your dad, but it's time to not be quite so touchy feely with your dad. But he should be the one feeling wierd about it not you.

Having said that I think it's great that you have such a good relationship with your dad. But by 16 you need to adjust that relationship to a more age appropriate manor. What is good for a parent child relationship at 6 is way different from 16 and 26. I suggest you talk with your dad about it, as wierd as that will be and let him know what your thinking, because if you suddenly stop sitting on your dads lap without talking to him he is likely to think you are having sex. And we all know you don't want that. He will also think "wow I've done a good job raising my daughter" and parents eat that up. (translation: whatever you want you get)So talk with him about what your friends are saying and the two of you can figure out a way for you to get that one on one time and noone feels weird. Truth is he might be wondering when it is appropriate to stop this. Parents are winging it as much if not more than the kids. So cut him some slack and just talk to him. Parenting is almost as hard as being a teen. I will NEVER say harder, maybe as hard just in a different way. Good luck.

Answer 4

I don't thik that it is sick. I think that you just love your father! The only sick people are the ones that read into it too much! Your love for your father is something that no one can ever take away from you! Don't listen to them! I am 18 and I would still sit on my fathers lap but he is handicapped and I am a little over weight so.... But I think that it is perfectly normal!

Answer 5

Your friends are just sick-minded. I'm 16 too, and I still sit in my father lap & we talk all night long. Just because you gotten older doesn't mean that the love between you and your father should change. If your friends have such a big problem with it, then they are not true.

Answer 6

I never had a good relationship with my dad. It was like he was afraid of me because I was a girl. My best friend lived across the street. She and her dad had a great relationship. They were very huggy and affectionate. I can remember staying at her house, and she and her dad would always snuggle up to watch tv. It was never inappropriate or ackward. It was just the relationship they had.

I think it has a lot to do with your family's culture and background and personal moreys. My friend's family is Irish. They're all huggy and affectionate. My family isn't at all. I still don't feel comfortable hugging my mom hello.

My husband is more like my friend's family. He's very affectionate. With his parents, his sisters, me and our children. It took me a while to get used to it, but I hope that he'll continue this close relationship with our kids. I'd love for my daughter to have the experience with my husband that my childhood friend had with hers.

Answer 7

I wish that I could have a nice relationship with my dad, we really don't like each other, we never talk except when we fight, he hates the way that I dress up an d the music that I listen to, I think that he's not smart at all. It nice that u can get along with ur dad, and u r not sick at all.

Answer 8

I think that it's wonderful that you are a "Daddy's Girl," but I think you are too old to sit on your dad's lap...pastor or not. You can still spend quality time with him in front of the TV, but sit beside him...not on him.

Side Note: I have a slim, six-year-old son and he is too heavy to sit on my lap now at 43 pounds.

Answer 9

that's a little weird. but you aren't alone. i have a cousin who is almost 18 years old and she does the same thing with her dad. she's always been really close to him and it makes him really happy that she cares about him so much. just be happy that you have a loving father who you are that comfortable around. it's not a bad thing. not a lot of people are like that though.

Answer 10

you are just a spoiled teen. You and your dad have a special relatiomship so what, if there's nothing sexual to it, there's nothing wrong. But you are becoming an adult, and this kind of behavior needs to be expressed in another ways maybe. Listen to the lady that adviced you to talk to your dad. I love my dad a lot too, he's my life, I'm so grateful with GOD that gave me wonderful parents.

Answer 11

There's nothing wrong with that at all. Let people think or say what they will. You are lucky to have a loving daddy like that! I was never too close with my dad, but I wish I had a relationship like that.
