Father’s Day is fast approaching, and with it comes the perfect time to show your old man how much he means to you. L’Oréal Paris Men Expert and our brothers over at JOE.ie have paired up to thank dads with a fantastic competition, and to celebrate we’re taking a look at some of the many reasons we’ll always be “Daddy’s Girl”.
______________________
He Believes In You, Always
Decided you wanted to be a ballerina at three, and a nurse at four? Whether you dreamed of being a star or a scholar, dad always had your back.
He Always Sides With You In An Argument
Mother/daughter relationships can be fraught when you’re younger. You could always rely on dad to stand up for you though. (In hindsight, we can see why mam hated this so much).
He’s The Man All Others Measure Up To
A father shapes your view on how men should treat women: with care, respect and love. It goes both ways, of course, but for future relationships this lesson is key.
He’s Your Personal Chauffer
For your younger years, dad spent half his time in a car driving you to and from lessons, matches and playdates. Even now, he’ll offer to pick you up after a night out at 3am if you need him. “Sure why would you be wasting money on a taxi?”
He’s Also Your Personal Bank
In your younger years you rarely went to him without a right hand outstretched in search of a fiver. Now, you swear blind you’re a grown-up and you can take care of yourself, but will he listen? Like hell. You’ll go back to your house after a visit, fifty euro better off than when you left.
He Partakes in Dad Dancing
Who could resist moves like this? Adorable.
He Also Makes Dad Jokes
Admit it, you secretly love them… not matter how loud you’re groaning.
He Needs You As Much As You Need Him
There’s something really lovely about that stage of life when your dad asks you for advice or help. Whether it’s “tune in the channels for me there” or help shopping for your mother’s Christmas present, there’s a special joy in being of use to the man who has done so much for you. Bless.
This Father’s Day, L’Oréal Paris Men Expert and JOE.ie have paired up to give you the chance to win the ultimate Father’s Day gift for the amazing dad in your life. For more on how to enter, click here.
