I’ve never met my dad. My mom doesn’t like to talk about it because… I’ll just say she doesn’t like the reason he left. But I got the best 18th birthday present ever– a card from my dad asking me to come live with him for the summer!!! I have no idea what a normal father/daughter relationship is but I’m excited to learn firsthand! My mom warns me before I go that my dad is the kind of guy a teen girl should be careful around, but that doesn’t make any sense cause he’s my dad! I should’ve listened to my mom, because it’s only after I was already living with him that I learn what kind of man my dad is and the reason he invited me to live with him specifically on my 18th bday. Or maybe it’s good I didn’t listen to my mom, because if so I’d never have had the chance to embrace the instincts I was born with ♥️
