I think it's normal, but don't over-psychologize it. Remember psychoanalysis isn't science, it's just speculation. And for all I know, every woman has some degree of attraction for father-like men, not only those who suffer abuse. Don't let that experience define you, and ruin your life.
(I could add that I didn't live with my father, so in school I used to be close to some male teachers, because I wanted to know what means to be a man. I'm a guy and it wasn't sexual, I just needed some male model, and I was very conscious of that.)
Is it normal that I try to make male teachers father figures?
