Ya know I started dating my late fiancee when I was 34....he was 50. At that time though I had matured and had many of the skills I have today, skills I absolutely didn't have at 19....andwe did have many things in common...but him treating me like a "parent" definitely wasn't on the agenda.
Chances are this is lesson that Chrissy's D will have to learn on her own. If Chrissy keeps her eyes/ears open and her guard up towards this guy, as well as her arms/heart open towards her daughter (which I believe she will) hopefully all will work out fine and eventually this romance will run it's course.
