A teenager went viral after revealing what it was like to date her biological father – and opening up about their plans to get married in 2015.
In an interview with The Cut, the unnamed 18-year-old woman, who was born and grew up in the Great Lakes region, explained how she established a relationship with her father. He is 18 years her senior, after being estranged for 12 years.
When the teen was 17 years old, she and her father met again. She said they quickly realized that they had “strong feelings for each other”.
She shared “We discussed whether it was wrong and then we kissed,”
“And then we made out, and then we made love for the first time. That was when I lost my v.i.r.g.i.n.i.t.y.”
The teen revealed that her biological mother didn’t know about this relationship and added that she didn’t care that the pair couldn’t be legally married.
The girl said “I want it to represent our uniqueness, so we aren’t doing a white wedding,”
“The color scheme is black and purple, and we are both going to wear Converse tennis shoes. He’s wearing jeans and a nice dress shirt. He says he’s not wearing a bow tie, but it’s my wedding and I am saying that he is.
“My grandmother and grandfather – my fiancé’s parents – are going to attend and my grandpa will give me away.
“The tables will have bouquets of trees without leaves to represent our marriage, which will be like a growing tree. My dress will be black.”
In 2015, when news of the pair’s wedding and their plan to move to New Jersey where they could be safe under the law appeared online, this has gone viral on social media, with people flocking to express their outrage. Many people hoped that the teen would consider marrying her biological father.
One Facebook user said: “No, no, no. I hope to God she doesn’t go through with this wedding and she comes to her senses.”
Another said: “This is so wrong, so so so wrong. I wish someone would step in and save this poor girl.”
