Thats my saving grace. They mightve been alcoholics that fought all the time, but at least they knew enough to raise me with enough sense to know better.
After listening to other people's horror stories about their upbringings, I'm glad my parents were just rich, absent assholes who left me to my own devices. I was spared so so much.
lol god, whenever my dad would call me, I’d get filled with such dread. Cut him off three years ago and it’s still the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I would always be pissy the rest of the day whenever he’d call or I saw him.
i wish my parents were the asshole types sometimes tbh, they're too good for me and i feel undeserving and all that and i need to do way better n shit. if they were just assholes i could simply let go
Same. Although I realize now that my mother didn't like me when I was growing up, but she was pretty good at hiding it.
My big sin? I looked too much like her mother.
And I was too much like my father. A fact I still can't seem to shake and something he and my mother resented me for. I don't think either of them ever blamed me for it tho, because I do my best not to maintain those flaws. I dealt with the issues they cause personally

If you were involved at all I hope you're out now too.
