I am a 23 year old woman, I live on my own, take care of all of my own bills and such. I am very close to my dad. I am madly in love with a 29 year old black man, who loves me as well. I haven't told my dad about how serious we are because I know he will disapprove. Do I do what I want, or should I still obey my father? I know that if we were to get married, my dad would probably refuse to pay for the wedding, and I am ok with that. I don't want to lose my relationship with my dad, but I don't want to give up my happiness to accomodate him

    I reckon you already know the answer to this if you think about it. 
     
    But if your relationship with your man is that good then what else matters? There is always a reason to dissaprove.
    AND
    If your relationship with your Dad is that good then it should survive this. If he loves you he'll understand.

     Your Dad is aware your seeing him, so must be aware there is a potential for it to be serious?

    Do what you want. If your dad wants to be close-minded and miserable, too bad.
