I am completely shocked everyone is supporting the OP.
I get such creepy vibes from the way he is describing the young girl and their "relationship".

Being hyper aware of the body of a child is NOT normal.

He wrote above:
"Thank you. Sometimes, I day dream about being a normal father - being able to hug her good night, being able to drape my arm around her shoulders while we're walking around the mall, being able to sit next to her without being too conscious of my movements, etc.. It's just the small things. I can live without those but.. I bet it'd be nice to be a real father."

noooooo! How are people not seeing this?!
