I’m her 64-year-old dad. My daughter is 25, her boyfriend is 26 and they’ve been together for three years.
During the first lockdown, she asked if he could move in with us. My wife and I didn’t even have to think about it.
We loved him from the moment we met him and he treats our daughter amazingly well.

I know I have to respect her decision but she’s going to regret this. She won’t find anyone else as honest or hardworking as him.
It sounds ridiculous, but it almost feels like a bereavement.
