    We’re all putting our own experiences out there, yours might not have been good, but mine was, so I wanted to share it.

    We don’t really have enough reliable information to say what is right and what is wrong here, if he is indeed grooming/manipulating her then of course that is bad, but I didn’t read anything to suggest that either of them are insincere.

    I knew exactly what kind of relationship I wanted when I was 17, it took me years to find it, all I’m saying is they could have both found theirs.

    I’m 34 and my partner is 54, We’ve been together for over 10 years, this is the best and strongest relationship both of us have had, not that I have had many, but my partner has and he says he’s the happiest he’s ever been with me.

    17 is young but it isn’t too young (imo), she might be mature for her age and they might work really well together.

    Not sure what point I’m trying to make, other than this kind of age gap does not always mean doom and gloom and that your dad could have found someone he could really enjoy being with, and you don’t want to destroy his happiness do you?
