How do I seduce my dad's friend?

Brittany writes, "I am attracted to the best friend of my father. I'm not sure that he has been looking at me, but I think my dad warned him because he knows what he's like. He's overprotective. In fact, he never looks at me, even when it wouldn't be inappropriate for him to do so. However, he did smile at me when my dad was nagging me yesterday, as if to say 'what's he like' or something. He also spoke, briefly, directly to me for a change. I know he was probably just being friendly, but it's a start. So, bearing in mind my dad's always around and I am a shy, modest person, how can I get his attention and eventually attract him? I am 21."

It is natural to get attracted to a "fatherly" figure. Daughters always have a special connection to their dads and obviously they are attracted to the friends of their dads.

And it appears to me that this man has been looking at you in a certain way and that is why your dad has been warning him. It also means that if something were to happen between the two of you, it would not make your father happy. And it might even destroy the relationship with his best friend. Do you think it is worth this risk?

If it is, then of course, it is possible for you and him to have a secret relationship. Obviously you will need to hint to him that you are also interested and he can trust you. I think once he is assured of confidentiality and interest, it should be pretty easy from there.

I think it is always a good idea to have a modest goal first. And since you are shy, it is best to first start talking to him more often. That will give both of you a higher level of comfort to at least smile at each other more often and even start flirting. I think you can start off by asking him more questions about something that could be of interest to him and to you, at least to some extent. It could be something that he is good at, or might love to talk about, say sports or gardening or cooking.

It also does not hurt to show interest in something that you may want to learn from him. Just as an example, let us say he is really good at making an egg sandwich -- it is something that you can ask him to teach. It is something that will not involve any sexual tension and your dad might want to share the sandwich too.

My goal is for him to see that you like to be around him and then he can simply make other things happen from there. Most men his age what to do once a girl has shown her intentions.
