My father is a CG but our outside facade to the world doesn’t show it. Hes very educated, has an excellent job, people always thought I was spoiled and had everything (little did they know, right?). Hes functional Monday-Friday but when the weekend comes hes off to the races and all he does is lose.
Now that I am in my mid 20s and thinking about settling down I am plagued by the idea that I really dont deserve the perfect man because with me comes my problem father. Why would a perfect guy want to be with me when I have so many problems that come with the package? Who would even want to be with someone who has this type of situation going on behind closed doors- its like a liability.
Has anyone else ever felt this way?
