Well, your Dad is old enough to do what he wants! And look at it this way.... maybe he forgot what to do in a situation like this!!!! It has been a while, hasn't it???? And... Would you want your Dad to tell you who and how to date??? Maybe you should just be his Buddy and give him some pointers. K

Consider yourself lucky! Please cherish these years with
your dad. Time goes by so quickly.
My father is 84 and when he turned 80 he met a wonderful woman who he married a few months later. We all love her very much and feel so blessed having her in our family. I understand how you feel about your dad dating but try to look at the situation differently. Just because he wants to date doesn't mean he feels less for your mom. My dad still talks about my mom..
He is still in love with her after all these years. She passed away over 26 years ago.
My father had 2 strokes in the past 3 months and is
paralyzed on his right side. He has been in a rehab facility and possibly going into a nursing home. His speech is getting better. He has had 84 wonderful years. Good luck with your Dad and enjoy your
new journey with him.
God Bless....
