      If this person has been your Dad for a number of years, then I believe you should still call him Dad. It takes a big person to be a parent to a child that isn't his. It takes a special person to be a Dad, not just a one night stand, but the person who has been there for you is your father. Hope this helps.

        Well it is all about the man, has he always been father to you through good and bad. This again is to question your gut reaction, it is all about what YOU think nothing to do with the rest of the world.

        If he has actually been a real father to you than I would say yes,but if he has just been another male in the house no,but if you have had that father son relationship there is no reason to terminate it at this point,be respectful to him as he respects you,and if you have always called him dad why stop now since he is the father you know and if he has been good at it, why not continue the relationship if it is not broke don't try to fix it,good luck to you,I know you will do the right thing......I'm counting on you......do shout

        Sure you can. This person has been your father since you were little. And I'm sure that you think of him as your dad.it takes a special person for someone to love a child and raise him even if he is not there own. Anyone can be a dad but it takes a special person to be a daddy. If you love him like he is your dad and you both agree about calling him that then i would go for it.good luck. Hope this helps

          I think if you care about him and he cares about you then yes you should still call him dad.

          Just another guy you'd be calling, "Daddy," Toast.  
          Nothing odd about that for you.  

          This one is also a bit more special...  Beings as you've known him longer than the time it took you to lock the bathroom stall door.

          A father is a presence in your life, not a DNA match!
