Yes, we teamed up together and made fun of my mom, or he’d pick me up at church and we’d go to breakfast instead of me going to church.  However, he was cruel to me; when I practiced driving with him, I started crying when he yelled at me, and said “oh, don’t indulge yourself” (by crying).  I remember an incident when he shamed me, for the wide tooth smile I gave when we were opening Christmas presents; “oh, don’t do that,  just smile…” It seems I have always been highly sensitive, and I have had a complicated relationship with my dad.  I just would like to not have this impact my ability for form a committed relationship with a man.
