I have not met her yet because she refused to accept me and her Dad as well. What is funny though, my hubby told me that if his daughter and I were in a pub (without him as an issue), we would definitely get along so well. We had a few spats because he was a bit scared to lose his relationship to his daughter as they were really close, the relationship of a daughter and a father is incomparable-I know that for sure as I'm one and only daughter among 3 brothers. Now, even my mum in law is giving my hubby a hard time about his chosen path (with me). I don't give a d@mn, it is true that I feel saddened that I couldn't hug her the way I would hug my mom though. My mum in law had given 30 years of hell with her another daughter in law (hubby's bro's wife) and she is still giving her a hard time. Life is too short to burden yourself with hurtaches and heartaches dear. Goodluck!
Our age difference is twice than your gap. My partner is afraid of losing his kids and his jobs. His kids knew about their dad's sex orientation but employers don't know about it. That's why he's afraid. We're both confused on what we need to do in our situation.
