Yeah, I felt it in my heart too. Or I'm having an emergency. He reminded me of a toddler I had to look after in daycare. Not rationalizing, just stating a demand at the cost of others and that is that. We can but hope that it is a joke. I know my dad would've praised me for my independence, had I said this at her age. Especially when she tries to explain herself over and over. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

@versuzzero5335 Fairly sure the parents are seperated and the mother has a new partner.

@quinnlevy8996 It would be funny if it wasn't the life of so many girls.

@acidset You're speaking about the father as if he is the child and she is the adult. She is a child, speaking about her future, suggesting she might one day find love and she wonders if he father will miss her. His response is that she cannot find happiness if it means she'll leave. That is not love, that is compulsive controll.

@versuzzero5335 No, he started telling his daughter she was not allowed to have a boyfriend in the future.

@versuzzero5335 The guy didn't lose his wife to a boyfriend... they broke up and the woman found new love. Leaving someone you do not love, is not a questionable decision. She did not say she was an adult, she said; 'I'm talking about when I am an adult. WHEN I AM AN ADULT.' And whatever would be happening, he cannot vent his trauma on her, that is not healthy.

@versuzzero5335 So you're suggesting that because she loved the father and they broke up, she made a mistake? He could've cheated as well, who knows. Also, maybe the daughter was visiting her dad in the weekends, like often happens. And why is it wholesome that the father is still trying, when we don't even know if the mom is still trying? It could be that the father is just doing his weekend-job of parenting. Why is it more special for a father to 'still try' than a mother? And again..no matter how wholesome it all is, the fact that he suggests that he doesn't want her to move out and find her own love, is disturbing. He is projecting his trauma onto her.

@versuzzero5335 "As far as normal people know, being difficult about your daughter potentially getting a partner in the future is not unhealthy behaviour.' Well, I must have weird parents then, that just treated me like an individual, rather than venting their own trauma (the fathers trauma) onto her. Suggesting having a relationship is bad and that he doesn't want her to have it. As if it will always go wrong. I did not suggest he causes her trauma with his own issues, I am saying HE has got trauma. He has been hurt and now he is projecting his own fear onto her. Ruining her chances of happiness in the process. That is awful and he should get therapy for it. And you should stop defending him.
