It is generally believed that there is a special chemistry between father-daughter duo like the mother-son bond. The man who is her everything from childhood is her father and her childhood had been revolving around him. In return, a father has special affinity towards his daughter, as she has to be so delicately handled and taken care of than a son.
Some fathers influence, inspire, pamper, take care and love their daughter so much so, that no other man in her life could catch up to that even by half its extent. She is so 'badly' loved by the father that no one else in this world, in the present and future, could love and care for her as much as he does. Thus, he sets a a standard so high that no one else would surpass.
If your wife is her father's beti, then her husband needs to beware. Because in all its likelihood, she is going to compare every action of her husband with her father's, especially in the initial days of marriage. For the wife, her hero is her father. Now her husband's challenge is how much he could match up to her one and only hero. The success of marriage is tossed between this. The situation is even more precarious if she is the only begotten daughter of her father.
It is a reality that her husband can no way match the love, care and protection that her father has been giving his daughter. Her husband would be lucky enough if he could score the pass mark in the screening test done (comparison between her father's and husband's love) in the initial days of marriage, which would give him a good start. But the husband should always bear in mind that his wife would continue to do this screening test all throughout their married life at various junctures.
