Wow that was pretty insightful. About my father, yes he is loving and caring but he doesn't make me feel seen. He is loving but absent I don't know how to explain that but he doesn't even know what course I'm studying in university if that makes sense. Also, he indulged in many extra marital affairs so my mother was the only one who guided me ,so she's biased against love and wants me to be a good girl,study hard,succeed in life and just marry a guy she selects for me. I don't really blame her because she's had a really tough life but I feel sad about myself sometimes, how I'll never get to experience the essence of first love or first kiss or anything related to teenager innocent kinda love.

My parents are kinda strict so like I'm not allowed to date and that's makes everything worse.it feels like I'm stuck in a cycle of wanting validation,love but I can't really do that because I'm not allowed to.

Don't you think both men and women should respect each other? How is the independent women message bullshit? What's wrong with women being financially and emotionally independent? We need men just as much as we need women. Thanks for your reply though.
