[quote=Anonymous]I was largely abandoned by my dad. He was an alcoholic. He was either out drinking somewhere, or home getting drunk or passed out. I learned to avoid him or face down his rage. He checked out of family life and was emotionally and physically unavailable. I keep everyone at a distance. I'm easily hurt and sensitive to others' moods and tend to take everything personally. It's very difficult for me to trust people and sustain relationships with other women, yet I was intensely focused on dating/boyfirend relationships as a very young teenager and adult. Married for 25 years.[/quote]
