Search Results: daddy issues

So for the longest time I have thought that I have daddy issues. However, I’m not certain what the traits for it are. I basically grew up with a father that walked out on us every chance he got (one of the reasons is that he has schizophrenia and doesn’t accept it). Regardless he wasn’t around enough and whenever he was it was very unstable. Growing up I had a difficult relationship with my father, we use to fight a lot, he was very negligent, etc. Anyways about 4 years ago he got his shit together and even helped me get my degree without any loans. However, I’m not certain if the many years of neglect had an impact in my psyche. I’ve been in two long term relationships, one in high school and another in college (3yrs & 2yrs). The second one had a really shitty end, since I let my ex play with me for two years after the breakup. Ever since, I haven’t been in a relationship and have only had sexual relationships that tend to not last very long (my decision, don’t want to catch feelings). I find it very difficult to trust guys, or I tend to quickly feel in love only to realized that it really wasn’t the case.
