Did you look at the Relationship Calculator and highlight the line that
says 3rd cousin?
That will give you the how.
It simply means that somewhere in your tree amongst his ancestors you
have people who are blood related marrying whether that be 1st cousins
or more distant relatives. Very common but a bit startling if you
weren't aware of it.
Once you look at what the Relationship Calculator says, you'll be able
to say:
Oh - that's right
or - OOPS I've got some people connected wrongly.

Hello Cathy,
Thank you for your prompt reply to my query re + symbols attached to
relationships. I can see how I may have two different relationships
with another distant person on my tree but I can’t see how my father
can have two relationships to me. Can you explain. Perhaps I’m a bit
dense?

It means they have more than one relationship to the starting person.
Right click and choose View additional relationships or choose to go
to the Relationship Calculator to see more information.
