I know it must be hard, but try not to take it personally that you're little girl is turning into a teenager and seems like she doesn't want to see you in particular anymore. All little girls go through this, there are a few years (maybe as many as 6-8 or more!) where they are so busy figuring out who they are and how they relate to the world that they get preoccupied away from their daddies. But don't worry, they almost always come back, unless there's some terrible crack that opens up which I sure don't see happening with you because you obviously love and value her very much.
I'm saying this from the perspective of a little girl who didn't really have much time for her family from age 14 to 21. But I sure missed them when I realized how far away I'd been!
Hey, thanks for this kind insight. Truth be told, I'm not terribly worried about it. Probably because I'm a really pragmatic guy, and I know this is how these things work.

But it's still good to hear.

Yeah, she's at that age. All you can do is just be there in the background for her, and she'll come back eventually.
I've met another woman through eHarmony, and, at the risk of "jinxing" it, I must say I'm just blown away with our apparent perfect fit.
Good luck with that. You're braver than I am.
I hope like hell that soon-to-be-hurricane Emily doesn't fuck up the trip.
I hope so too. I hope you two have a great time. Take lots of pics!
