A teen has revealed what it’s like dating her biological father.
Warning: This article contains details some readers may find distressing.
In an anonymous interview, she admitted falling in love with her father, who is 18 years her senior, upon their reunion at age 17.
From that point on, they began a ‘consensual i****t’ relationship.
People have been left horrified by the controversial article, with one person penning: “Shame on him. If he had an ounce of decency he would end this.”
Another agrees: “The mentality of some people is shocking. To even think this is acceptable is beyond comprehension.”
“Could have gone the rest of my life without seeing this,” adds a third.
The woman, who has never been close with her mother, was conceived on prom night when her parents were 18.
However, they separated before her birth, and her father was largely absent from her life.
Her mother’s mental health struggles and instability during her childhood led to her being raised by her grandparents, further straining their relationship.
Despite intermittent contact until she was around five, her father’s presence in her life faded for the next decade.
This absence significantly impacted her, leading to feelings of abandonment and confusion.
When she was 15, her father reached out, expressing a desire to reconnect.
Although her mother opposed the idea, the woman was interested. Their reunion finally occurred when she was 17, facilitated by her own Facebook account.
As they reconnected, they discovered shared interests in TV shows and art, strengthening their bond.
However, the woman also experienced a confusing attraction to her father. She described it as a mix of familiarity and attraction, leading to internal conflict and self-doubt.
Seeking escape from her controlling mother, the woman moved in with her father.
“Sleeping in new places makes me very anxious so I asked him to stay with me in case I had one of the terrible nightmares I usually experience,” she told the outlet.
“The second night I had him sleep on the couch again and then the third night I fell asleep with him on the floor lying on his chest, in his arms.
“The fourth night rolled around and we ended up on the floor again. This time we actually cuddled. When he woke up, we were spooning.”
Over the following days, their relationship escalated, and despite her father’s initial efforts to maintain distance, their emotional connection led to physical intimacy.
They eventually admitted their feelings for each other and shared their first kiss. Subsequently, they engaged in s**ual activity, which marked the woman’s first time.
She expressed her desire for him to be her first partner and emphasized that their relationship was consensual.
Surprisingly, the woman found the experience ‘so natural’ and ‘not taboo at all.’ She felt as if she had been with this man for years.
Now, they live together as a committed couple, even with the knowledge of their relationship.
The woman has expressed her belief that their relationship is not only passionate and fulfilling but also natural and comfortable.
She has never felt forced or coerced into anything and insists that she is a willing participant.
Despite the societal taboo surrounding their relationship, the woman and her father have chosen to be open about their love.
They have shared their story with many people in their lives, including family members, friends, and their current living situation.
The woman’s father’s parents, for example, have expressed their support and excitement for their relationship.
They treat them just like any other couple and are eagerly anticipating the possibility of grandchildren.
The woman’s best friend is also aware of their relationship and has been supportive. She has seen the happiness and fulfillment that the woman and her father have found together.
Their living situation is also unconventional. They live with the woman’s father’s girlfriend, who discovered their relationship accidentally.
Despite the initial surprise, she has embraced them as a family and considers the woman her daughter.
The woman and her father’s decision to be open about their relationship is a testament to their love and commitment.
While the teenager hasn’t informed her mother yet, she intends to do so before moving to New Jersey, a state with no laws against incest between consenting adults.
The couple desires a unique wedding to reflect their unconventional bond.
Black and purple will be the color theme, with Converse sneakers replacing traditional shoes. Her father plans a dress shirt and jeans, while she will wear a black dress.
They envision their wedding as a “growing tree,” symbolized by centerpieces featuring bare branches.
Although this relationship is controversial, it may well be linked to a phenomenon known as Genetic S**ual Attraction (GSA), a term coined in the late 1980s to describe romantic attraction between reunited biological relatives.
The Guardian reports that GSA may occur in up to 50% of such cases.
