Or...Tai is the biological father of both Ruby and Yang because you can't be half sisters if you're adopted. You're just an adopted sister.

Qrow is Ruby's father figure and did all that stuff that you pointed out because Tai shut down. As in, he wasn't available to raise Ruby and Yang, so Qrow stepped in to help out. Ruby learnt Qrow's fighting style because Ruby's body type (tiny) and semblance isn't suited to Tai's fighting style, while Yang's sembalnce and average height mean she can dish out the pure, brawling damage. Plus there's the fact that Ruby started learning it by herself at school, and even states "I was complete garbage before he (Uncle Qrow) took me under his wing." He only started teaching her after he noticed how terrible she was, which means she started learning it of her own violition because she thinks he's really cool.

You can move on from someone in 15 months. That's more than a year of Summer, Qrow and Tai hanging out together after school was over, during which Summer would have definitely stepped in to help with Yang and so the two of them would have been spending a lot of time together. Add in that they were roommates for 4 years before then, and they already had a relationship upon which to build and turn romantic. 15 months is plenty of time to go from 'extremely good friends/teammates/roommates of 4 years' to 'lovers'.

Basically, no. Qrow is not Ruby's father. You can hang around your friend's kids and offer support for them without having to be related to them.
