[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It gives me creepy 'daddy' vibes.

I remember my dad went with me to view apartments (I was 26 and he was 55 at the time) since he worked near me.  I realized at some point we both realized the apartment reps thought we were a couple which instantly had us almost throw up and vehemently clarify I was his daughter.  It never dawned on me somebody would ever think my dad was my boyfriend. Gross.

At 26 I was after guys my age or a few years either direction.  I wanted someone with the same energy level, same cultural references and experiences and someone who wouldn't be an old fart much sooner than me.  I also found youth and vigor and thick hair and muscles hot, not older men---the kind at work that were married and hitting on me---YUCK.

So for me--it looks really strange to see an old man or old woman dating someone 15+ years younger.  I see often on the sports' sidelines the 'dad' is mistaken by everyone for grandpa.[/quote]

After I graduated from college and before getting into a serious relationship my Dad and I would have a “date night” almost every month just for us to catch up and stay connected. I loved it! We’d go to really nice restaurants and often we’d notice people looking at us as though we were that sugar daddy couple. We’d roll our eyes and laugh. I’d love to do it now but with a husband and three little kids it’s not going to happen. [/quote]
