Dear Panel,

About a month ago I found out my dad had a girlfriend. We went to her house for dinner and I met her and her 2 daughters. Her daughters are 11 and 14. I'm 15.

Me and the older one got along real good as soon as we met. We both really like each other but not in a brother, sister kinda way.

So a few weeks ago they got engaged, but then 2 weeks later we got talkin' about us and we want to go out but she is worried about what they will think.

Our parents aren't gettin' married for a year so I dunno what to do. Please help!
