[quote=Anonymous]My dad was there physically but wasn't really "there" in that he never paid me any attention. He also used me as a pawn to get back at my mom after they divorced (withholding money/paying for things for me as a child to make her pay for things despite her being the one paying him child support). As a result, I desperately sought out male attention as a I got older. I would say this is the more classic "daddy issues" you hear about. I confused guys giving me physical attention for love. I was never not casually dating/"talking" to a guy or in a long term relationship (serial monogomy). I felt scared to not have a man in my life I think because I was missing that security from my father. I've been married for 2 years (together for over 7 years) and my husband is not at all like my father. He pays me a lot of attention, actually he complains that I'm not affectionate enough. Clearly I've been in therapy for this haha. [/quote]
