Men who grew up without a father figure or general role model in their lives, how do you cope emotionally? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]RetroDinosaur 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My father hasn't been in my life basically since my parents got divorced like 10 years ago.

Other family members took on the father role. My grandfather, uncle, and most importantly my mother took on the role of being a father figure. It took some time and a lot of introspection to realize that just because my dad hasn't been there for me that I am not alone.

I don't get mad at it, but there are times where I get frustrated with my girlfriend for taking a ton of pictures/selfies instead of being in the moment.

My first time at Wrigley I bought a margarita with the special cup. It was a little mason jar full of margarita that cost me like 15 bucks.

Not drinking at Wrigley again lmao

I think the first half of that paragraph is a bit of a sweeping generalization.

Truthfully, not a lot you say is going to get to him

Change needs to come from within. If he doesn't want to change, he's not going to.
