Hi all,

Thanks for reading my post. I feel like this is a 911 emotional emergency..

My 29 yr old daughter has many issues and I have tried for many years to be there and help but now I am lost. In October, a hookup with her 55 yr old supervisor led to what she calls a relationship and I call blatant abuse of power. My daughter has not seen her father in 15 years and this man is almost her father's age. She refuses to deal with her issues of abandonment with her father despite having been in and out of therapy for years . All her relationships, including a 7 year abusive relationship which she still cannot completely detach from, have been disastrous and she always comes to me when things fall apart.

Yesterday, she told me they were talking about marriage. She also told me that he just last week went to court to divorce his 3rd wife... so she would be wife #4... Of course the reason's the marriages fell apart were all the women's faults..

Also, he has gone from saying he doesn't want children to saying he does, He does not have a relationship with his own 28 year old daughter, claiming his ex-wife poisoned the well..

She refuses to see any red flags in this relationship and we argue whenever we talk. She has no respect for me and yells viciously at me.

I feel like I need to do something to stop this... it's tearing me up and affecting my physical health.

Thanks again for reading this...
