Just wanted to throw in a side comment...
I think this is probably a very common thing. I've read many studies on this while completing my sociology minor. Girls tend to find men who are much like their father. Girls who were daddy's little girl tend to find a guy that will treat them like a princess. Girls who have an ambitious father want to find the same in their mate. Sadly, many women who were emotionally/physically abused by their father find a man that does the same to them. The reason women do this is because their father is main male role model in their life and they try to find a mate to fulfill that same position. Not every girl tries to find a man who emulates the same characteristics as her father but it is really common. I find many qualities about my boyfriend that are the same in my father. It's scary!
But, I love my father very much so it's fitting that I would want to find a guy that I feel will treat me as well as my daddy has treated me.
I would think that if a man is a very good father that he should be flattered that his daughter is bringing home a guy just like him!
Even if the guy does remind him of his younger, wilder days!
