Women who have a close relationship with their fathers during their childhood want their partners to have the same qualities that their dad has.
What is your thinking?

hi bishu.i really agree with you.its because a daughter is more attached to her father from her childhood only.and in most of the cases they love thier dad more than their mother.from childhood only they adore their dad's work and his ideas and views because its gentic.so her views become like this only.now she is young she thinks she needs to marry a person who is like her father in ideology.i must say this is not only the case of daughter but also the case of son who want their wife to have the qualities that his mother has.this is all because of the views and attachment that one has and which created thier mindset right from their childhood.

it is not a bad thing.as a child my father loved me and taught me many things which include the principle how to be a man like a rock .I want to be a man like my father.I hope I have these positive qualities,like tough,loyalty,brave,etc.I think parents have big influence with their kids.the father is a hero,and the son is a hero ,too.

I think being close to a father by young girls is a natural thing-it is the law of attraction and if a girl grows up to want have a hubby who has traits of her father-its only proper that you choose to live the rest of your life with a soul mate

Funny I had this conversation not that long ago with someone that I have a thing for I guess you would call it-
I think on the contrary women looking for father figures in a romantic relationship didn't have an active relationship with their dad.
I have an awesome relationship with my dad always have and I would not want a guy that even closely resembles my dad...ewwwww.
My dad is very stubborn, confident, and old fashioned who thinks that instead of "having your head in the clouds studying something 'artsy'" you should actually study worthwhile subjects like math and science... yep- as for me- while he was right- I'm an artsy girl so I like guys who are this way I guess- sort of the romantic free spirit yet still a little responsible type with a great heart and soul..
So nope I would never want to be with a guy resembling or acting like my daddy!
