Girlfriend, Friend or babysitter?

I have been seriously dating a dad, he introduced me to his (almost teenage) daughters very quickly. He is seperated and has full custody. Because of the distance, I spend the night (on the couch alone)and spend time with the girls all weekend. We end up giving them all the attention and not having any adult time. Also, he says I am his "friend" and to others "their babysitter" or "friend". I even sit in the backseat of the car! I love his girls and they love it when I come over! He is scared to let his girls know we are dating because they will be Jealous and wont want me to come over. How can we move this in the right direction so I can be a welcomed girlfriend?

You sound as if there is no real dating going on. If you're not getting any adult contact the answer is obvious.

towapa agony auntNot being funny, but it sounds to me he's avoiding it all. What I mean is, how come he's only letting you come round to look after the children, and not spend any time with you? Sounds weird to me. Also, if the girls love being around you so much, then don't you think they'd love it if you was the 'girlfriend'? You just need to talk to him about it all. I also think he may not be ready because of the divorce and everything... I don't know, you just need to have a word with him.
