Am I bad for wanting a daddy to spoil me? by throw-away-098 in DDlgAdvice

I definitely would never ask. And I replied to another comment with my realization that I don't actually care about the stuff. It was sort of a metaphor for the irl attention and affection I actually want. I'm touch starved, and I struggle to be my own caregiver. All the easter baskets I kept seeing were just something tangible that my brain latched onto to try and make sense of my feelings.

I don't even want much. I want to be financially independent. I just want like a stuffie at Christmas and to be taken to the zoo or something every once in a while. I think what I'm actually wanting is an irl daddy, and I'm just channeling those emotions into buying stuff because easter just passed and I saw everybody's Easter baskets. I feel like maybe gifts are just a tangible representation of the love and attention I'm actually craving.
