Thank you so much for the hugs and for replying, TishaBuv It helps knowing I'm not alone. I'm sorry you've had to deal with unloving fathers as well

I know several women who had unloving fathers and went on to have abusive relationships later on... I've gone to the other extreme in that I've hardly had any relationships at all. I just haven't felt good enough But I'm going to change that kind of thinking...!
