When a woman found out a secret about her dad’s sex life, she was left horrified and unable to look at him – but her husband defended her dad, saying that it wasn’t a biggie
There are some things you just don’t need to know about your parents, so when one woman found out a horrifying tidbit of information about her dad’s sex life, she was left struggling to even speak to him.
The woman shared that her 68-year-old dad had been single for around six years after her mum died, and she was “surprised” that he’d been going to dinner with multiple women.
After speaking with her husband, he assured her it was “unfair” for her to assume he’d be single for the rest of his life, but she became suspicious as he met with four different women in a short period of time, saying it made her feel “weird”.
After her dad had gone on a few more dates with different women, curiosity got the better of her, and she had to confront her dad about what was going on and she found out that he’d been using an escort service, so wrote into MailOnline’s ‘Dear Jane’ agony aunt column.
“He could clearly tell how appalled I was by this information because he immediately began making excuses for himself – telling me that he was so nervous to get back into the dating world after so many years and thought this would be an easy way to get some practice”, she explained. He also shared that the relationships were not “physical”, but she was still left baffled as to what he was getting out of the arrangements.
He said that he wanted “company” from the women he was spending time with, but the fact he was “paying” for these services from women was something his daughter couldn’t get her head around.
“Maybe I’m being dramatic – my husband thinks I am, but that’s a whole other can of worms I won’t open right now – but this has made me look at my dad in a whole new, and rather unflattering light”, she admitted, asking for advice on how she could get over it.
Jane responded to the woman, saying that she needed to “butt out” of her dad’s business, saying that it’s his decision what he does with his free time. She said that he’s “an adult”, and she should treat him as one, saying that she shouldn’t be asking him to explain himself.
Jane said: “As for his behaviour being horrifying, I find his clarity around his choices to be completely reasonable”, saying that she needs to “busy” herself with her own life.
