This felt pretty weird today?
Right my Dad's in his 30s and he has a 17year old girlfriend and we'd gone on a day out like we do every Sunday and we'd taken my cousin who I just met today and it just felt weird cos it was just like being with a bunch of mates with 3 of us being teenagers and my Dad technically being the only proper adult and it didn't really feel like being with family at all.
Would you feel weird in this situation?
I mean I like to be able to see them more as mates than family cos mates you can choose and they don't tell you off but seen as they are all technically family except for my Dad's girlfriend it just felt weird.
Is it normal for me to feel weird in this situation and will I eventually get used to it?
Don't get me wrong my Dad and his girlfriend rock and my cousin, well lets say I now know which side of the family I get my intelligence from and it's really enjoyable talking about science crap that usually bores my Mum's side of the family.
Incase you haven't figured it's only pretty recently I've started seeing my Dad and his side of the family.
Yeah my Dad's girlfriend is 2years older than me.
Hey, I am happy for my Dad and his GF, I'm just saying it felt weird knowing they are family but them feeling like mates.
Let me get this straight, my Dad isn't a peado, nor is his GF a gold digger, my Dad is a bus driver and he is no where near rich(no offonse to him).
Him and his GF love each other and it was pretty easy to know what to say around them.
No my Dad was 18.

Yep. I understand how it could be awkward.
In some family situations, all you can do is stand by. Whatever you say, pro or con, will be the wrong thing to say. You have to decide if that fits the case here.
Girls mature quicker than boys do. However, the age difference will create some cracks that will split further and further until one, the other or both decide to call it quits.
Unless your dad is titled or rich, this will be a passing moment and hopefully, a tale that he will tell that a young thing as she was still interested in someone his age. But, that's just my opinion.

It's all so new for you at the moment, so it's perfectly natural for it to feel strange for a little while, but once you get used to it, it'll feel completely normal to you.
It's great that you felt like friends and you sound as though you may have a new best friend where your cousin is concerned.
Enjoy it :)

properly, it sounds to me like the two one among you're no longer too excited approximately being together. the entire ingredient to a female pal/boyfriend is to have somebody you shelter and have faith, and decide to spend time with. once you're actual unhappy or uninterested in her, then you rather might desire to evaluate looking somebody else. i think of you will possibly desire to frivolously and with courtesy ask her approximately her remark. What did she mean by utilising announcing "God" merely needed you to be acquaintances? that could properly be her way of announcing, "it wasn't meant to be" and she or he needs to confirm people. As for the two one among you being in love, it would not sound like it. once you adore somebody, you won't be able to stand the belief-approximately dropping them. Sounds to me such as you adult males merely had some mutual allure that has dwindled now. in the experience that your female pal defends a guy pal, it would not might desire to intend something. in line with threat she merely sympathizes with him or thinks he's real with reference to the problem. Now, if she's consistently taking his area and appears like she could extremely spend time with him, you have have been given an issue. attempt asking her why she acts this form in a independent way. If she would be able to no longer consult from you, it somewhat is an exceedingly massive problem. Feeling gentle speaking on your boyfriend/female pal is the main serious component to a courting. i'm going out on a limb right here, besides the shown fact that it seems such as you're an adolescent. if so, you have lots of time merely before you for severe, significant relationships. If this one isn't that kind, do no longer sweat it, yet do no longer settle for below what is going to make you happy.

it sounds like you had a great day. i don't think it's weird at all, families are so diverse & it's brilliant you get on so well. dads should feel like mates, mums too, but we can't always achieve that. the "weird" feeling will soon disappear. go on enjoying it, hun. diane.

i would feel weird. How old are you, about the same age as your Dad's girlfriend? That is way awkward!
- gemba253Lv 41 decade ago
You can't choose who your family are, i wish you could but that's just life. That situation would probably weird me out too but the key element here is that they are your family and that's all that matters right?
