Weird world, an
18-year-old woman from the Great Lakes region describes her romantic
relationship of almost two years with the biological father she met after 12
years of estrangement. The 18-year-old girl has revealed plans to marry
him and have his children! Read the excerpt below:
What was your
family like when you were growing up?
My parents had me when they were 18 — they met in high school and I was conceived on prom night. They were serious for about six months but broke up while my mom was still pregnant with me. My dad wasn’t there when I was born. I think my mom’s psychological problems meant the relationship never really worked out. She has bipolar disorder and some other mental health issues. They just weren’t happy and didn’t really keep in contact after I was born. She wanted to do it alone. When she’s manic it’s hard to know what she’s going to say. After I was born she had a nervous breakdown and couldn’t take care of me, so I lived with her grandparents until I was about 2. I think that’s part of the reason we’ve never been close: We didn’t bond when I was a baby.

Did you have any contact with your father when you were a
child?
He briefly came back into my life when I was about 3 or 4 and I saw him on weekends until I was about 5. He lived about an hour away from us and my parents constantly argued about visitation. He was always doing the drive to see me because my mom wasn’t very fond of it — she wouldn’t even meet him halfway.

.......my father
and I didn’t end up meeting for two more years, so there was no contact for 12
years — we were reunited when I was 17.
So can you
remember what it was like the moment you and your dad were reunited? Was there
an instant attraction?
It was so weird and confusing. I was seeing my dad for the first time in forever but it was also like, He’s so good-looking! And then I was like, What the hell are you thinking? What is wrong with you? I saw him as my dad but then also part of me was like, I’m meeting this guy who I have been talking to over the internet and really connecting with and I find him attractive.

Was there a
single moment you realized that you were sexually and romantically attracted to
your dad?
After I had stayed with him for about five days.

.........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. I didn’t know this
at the time but later, after we admitted our feelings, he told me he had had
“morning wood” and had gone to fix it.
Did you feel it?
No, I was asleep and he quietly snuck off to the bathroom.

........ That
night we were play-wrestling in the room I was going to sleep in and I bit him.
He was wearing a pair of basketball shorts and a tank top and after I bit him I
could see goose bumps pop up from his toes to his shoulders. Then he pinched my
inner thigh and I got goose bumps.
We stopped and
said that we didn’t know what was going on but admitted that we had strong
feelings for each other. We discussed whether it was wrong and then we kissed.
And then we made out, and then we made love for the first time. That was when I
lost my virginity.
What was it like?
There’s a reason I lost my virginity to him — because I’d never felt comfortable with any other man. It was insanely sensual. It lasted for about an hour and there was a lot of foreplay. We both had orgasms. We are so similar, so it’s so easy to sexually please each other. For example, we both love neck-biting. I’ve never been in a more passionate, loving, fulfilling situation.

I’m curious,
given the age gap and the perceived power dynamic, did you feel forced or
coerced at all?
Absolutely not. He made sure I wanted to do it. We both initiated it and he kept asking me if I was okay, not because he thought I was distressed but because he wanted me to know that we could stop at any point. It was like any other man and woman having sex after they had each admitted their feelings.

What was it like
afterward?
It wasn’t weird at all. It felt so natural. It didn’t even feel taboo. I felt like I had just made love with a man who I’d been with for years.

.....We plan to move to New Jersey where we can be safe under the law, since adult incest isn’t illegal there, and once I’m there I’ll tell everyone. I’ll call my mom and let her know that we are in love and we are having children. If she wants to see her grandkids we’ll send her money and she can drive to see us. Once we are out about it I won’t be comfortable going back to my hometown. What if someone calls the cops?
So would you have
kids together, or would you adopt?
We’ll have kids together.
We’ll have kids together.
Do you think you
have something special that other couples don’t?
I think we have a better relationship than any couple I’ve met because our bond is so strong. I just feel so close to him and so in love with him. We are almost two years into the relationship and I’m still head over heels with that “first few weeks in love” feeling. Everybody says we are the cutest couple they’ve ever seen. I took him to prom.

.........When you
are 18 you know what you want. You’re an adult under the law and you’re able to
consent. I can take care of myself. I don’t need protection. If I were in a
situation where I needed to get out I would. I’m not afraid to defend myself.
My mom taught me self-defense, whether it be stabbing someone in the eye with a
mascara brush or kicking a man in the crotch, and she was careful to teach me
about inappropriate touching. From a very young age she told me not to listen
to the classic things an abuser might say, like when they tell you to keep it
secret or that they will kill you or your family.
