Your daughter will: always be in your life and your gentleman friend needs to know that being in relationship w/you is a "package deal." Continue to have your own relationship w/her. Don't let his OCD be a excuse to dislike your daughter. Folks dislike others w/out OCD also. Peace and good health. Don't forget that he's your boyfriend, not your father.
