Issues

This was brought up briefly in a thread in yesterday's meme.

So what I want to know is:

What are your Daddy/Mommy/Parental issues?

I'm in the process of transferring a good chunk of my need for approval to my idiot manservant - who doesn't know how to dress himself or walk in a straight line without tripping - his mother, my foster sister, and in a pinch, my foster sister's maid, Guinevere. Does that count?

Absolutely. It is amazing what the least bit of approval and validation will do for someone who is starved for it.

This is probably why girls with Daddy Issues tend to be such raging sluts.

Yes, that sounds about right. Girls. Yes.

Have I ever... mentioned that the one girl I ever thought loved me and I loved in return although that was totally a spell turned out to be an evil magical creature looking to drown me?

Not that that contributes to any other issues I may have. Or the fact that my father went on a murderous rampage when the love of his life died and he still hasn't stopped, yet. Then again, I suspect that if you and I start to really delve into our issues, we'll be here for a while.
