You seem to be taking walking in on your daughter f*****g her boyfriend pretty calmly. (that is, you're taking it calmly...I have no idea how calm the f*****g was)[/quote]

Wow, vulgar much?

Why wouldn't he be calm?

Sure it's a bit awkward to walk in on anyone unexpectedly, but reasonable adults should try to react calmly and minimize the embarrassment for all involved.

I tend to treat my older teens with roughly the same attitude and respect I would give another adult unless that's not what they want/need or they show me they can't handle that. If the DD is old enough to make the decision that she's ready to be in a sexual relationship she should be old enough to [b]me[/b] mature about associated awkwardness, and so should the father.

Kudos to OP for his sensitive and respectful handling of a tough situation, especially given all the cultural issues surrounding the topic and the fact that he is a single dad dealing with this particular issue with a teen daughter, something that may add to the awkwardness.  [/quote]
