Asking bc my father is a piece of shit and I honestly have only met one person in my life that has a honest to god good relationship with their dad

My dad spent years acting as a surrogate dad to a whole pack of then-teenagers precisely because their own fathers were shitty in one way or another. He went to their concerts and games, he had them over for dinner, he taught several of them how to drive, he was there for them in whatever way they needed him to be. It wasn't until I was watching this (they were all a few years younger than me) that I realized just how common shitty fathers are. It was eye-opening. But also, I could see what a difference having one adult in their lives who cared about them and showed up for them and listened to them made.

u literally cannot have some sort of kneejerk panicked guiltspiral reaction to learning u hurt someone u cannot start playing out ur imaginary canceled callout metoo moment anytime a loved one thinks uve done something wrong 9/10 people are only communicating that to u bc they want 1) their hurt validated 2) a promise to at least try not to hurt them the same way again 3) a hug not some fucking malicious attempt to destroy ur life
