dad seeying a woman half his age?!

[haycal2008]

We have just discovered our dad is seeying a woman half his age (he is 62 she is 31) from Kenya!

He has been there a few times alone over the last few months and has returned today for 5 weeks to spend wiv this woman. He had a gf of 16 yrs who he has told he is in love with this african beauty! She is heartbroken and cant belive whats happening, neither can we!!

Could she actually be with my dad cuz she loves him or is she just after his cash?! I mean why would she be interested in him, dads eldest daughter is older than she is! We are all just concerned about this woman who may be trying to fleece our dad, any help wouldbe appriciated x

And can i just say i think its really nice that your looking out for your dad as thats what families are for.

There is always a chance she is after his money but also they could of found love. Age is just a number. I married my 46 year old husband when i was just 17, we are divorced now only because i found us to be better friends than lovers. Give your dad a chance to make his own decisions, he is old enough to do so!


ps. i do understand you wanting to look out for him but you really don't want to burn a wedge between you and if she is fleecing him who will be there to catch her out.

Can i just thank you both for your replys. As i have already stated i am not being funny with him at all, i actually respect the fact he has fell for her just hope she likes him for the right reasons! I would never do anything to put my realtionship with my dad in danger i love him to much, and respect he is old enough to make his own decisions. He knows that i am behind him 100% no matter what happens i will be there for him. My sister has wrecked her relationship wiv dad over this going balistic at him when she found out - thats not my way. He knows i have concerns but knows i will stand by him no matter what he does x
