Welcome, I’m glad you’re here! And I like your father’s advice… I’d like to hear more about what you think, do you ever think about taking his advice?
Are you a psych major or an author…or got some fucked up trauma fetish?
I can understand why…
my dad is an absolutely wonderful person and i’m thankful for him every day. he’s a total dork which is definitely where i get my dorkiness from. my stepdad (who i no longer have contact with), on the other hand… he was pretty awful. he’s left me with PTSD, but thankfully it did have it’s pros because i know better how to protect myself and my family if an abusive relationship ever happens again.
I have no idea why but this video helped me once when I didn’t even know if I should exist on this planet… I also knew that I was blessed to have at l least one person in my life who loved me like that… It built me better for who I am today… Now I know there are more…
@RBG This is the Father Story I relate to. Very similar to mine. Thanks for sharing . I’ll write mine when I’m up for it. I’ll just say now that I understand him more when I was a 7 years old than he has ever understood me. I knew at that time it was wrong and lame. So little has changed and now he’s 86. So sad.
My Dad is a good man. A simple man with simple tastes. He’s smart, witty and good with his hands. He’s a hard worker who can’t sit still to save his life. He’s a good teacher and very patient. He’s generous, thoughtful and selfless. He has bailed me out of financial situations on many occasions and never once asked for anything in return. I look up to him and respect him very much. I hope to be half the man he has been, when I grow up.
Still waiting for your story!
