You should've told her that she smells like your mom... And made it equally as awkward

WHY DID SHE SMILE ABOUT THIS.

While this is slightly awkward, I would take it as a compliment also. She may feel a sense of security with you as she does her father. That's a good thing! ;}

That might be a good thing...unless there is an abusive father...

Weird, but i think there is more to it! Ask her about it. Maybe when she explains it will make sense.

I'm guessing it's because they're older and have been dating for a long time. Even though they aren't married, boyfriend/girlfriend might start to sound a little bit childish and not really represent their commitment.

It's pretty common actually. I know in the UK they use it all the time to be politically correct.

It is actually the case that women are more attracted to men who smell like their fathers, so that's all fine. Being cognizant of it might be a little weird, though.

That's probably a compliment, girls try to find partners that usually have traits similar to their dads.
