i don’t know if I’ve suffered enough to say that i have daddy issues. My father is trying to change, but the damage dealt has already affected me. Like, it’s hard to be around him. It’s hard to say “i love you” because you feel disgusted. It’s so difficult when he wants to give you a kiss on your cheek and give hugs because you hate his physical affection. I don’t know if I’m the problem for not accepting his change. But i can’t see him as the “newly improved and trying to be better” person he is now, I still him as a person who makes me afraid. I was afraid to cry because he hated it when I did. So, I usually cry silently or not at all. I cannot adjust to the person I always wanted when I was younger because he isn’t in my eyes. He is still the same person I am frightened of.
