my Dad worked 2nd shift most of my life which means he pretty much missed everything providing for us. it's why Love for me is something implicitly understood without question, but without corresponding action and built on a lot of assumptive fantasy. it's why i married a man who was always gone and another one whose career has him on about the same hours. don't see you for days or weeks or months or years? cool, whatever. it's probably responsible for my personality being borderline. i don't think anybody meant to neglect me, the attention i received was full of unearned praise b/c *surprise* being the only girl among a bunch of boys meant nobody gave me any expectations above being adorable and pleasant, but i sure did spend a lot of time alone--still do. i have to be hyper aware and make conscious efforts to hold up the obligations that come with being trusted and having healthy relationships. i can be awful cruel or dismissive without realizing it or be very aware and just not care. Love isn't contingent on the things you do or don't do; it just exists, frozen somewhere in space/time. i'm a treat! or dangerous. whatever. #DaddyIssues
