Woody Allen married his daughter....I am SURE she is COMPLETELY NORMAL (said with tongue planted firmly in cheek).
Like others have said, you are feeling unconditional love. That is great that you can get that. Don't expect you will always get that from her as she grows older, teenagers have a mind of their own, but, it is OK. And, it is something she will outgrow, and, as an adult, she will LOVE you even more.
Now, you say "Why couldn't I marry you instead of your Mum". OK, now, that is weird. First off, it is Mom. But, you are British, or something, whatever. You need to realize, that without her "Mum", you could have NEVER created such a wonderful person, and, no matter how hard you try, you cannot take parts of her Mom out of her, just like you can't remove you from her. You are both a part of her.
Sounds like you should try to work on your relationship with her Mum....assuming you are still together. If not, you should at least appreciate that your daughter is a part of both of you.
While it is cute to say things like that, it kind of sounds a little creepy, and, you don't want to send mixed-messages to your daughter. Worse, you CERTAINLY don't want her repeating this kind of stuff to her Mum....because, if there IS a fracture in your relationship with her, you better believe her Mum is gonna find a way to use it against you!
Don't give her Mum ANY ammo to break the 2 of you apart.
You sound like a good Dad, with good intentions.
Keep it that way.
PS - I just re-read your post, did the math. You were 17 when you had her? Sheesh, that is YOUNG. Good for you, still maintaining a relationship with her. But, realize something, a lot of guys were TWICE your age before having kids...including your's truly (me, if you didn't figure that out!!!)....you are SO young. It makes my heart hurt. Just, do the right thing, and watch what you say....it CAN and WILL be used against you!!! Especially when you post it up on WEB SITES!!!! My advice, once again, be VERY careful what you say. You did a pretty good job on this one, but, your on the border.
Is it normal that I'm in love with my daughter?
