I am paralized by the fear of becoming my own person. I am struck down each and every time I hear the phrase "You know what your problem is?" I sometimes, no, make that often times, hear it in my head when noone is around. I catch myself saying to myself when I do something he would criticize. It's easier to not voice an opinion, because my opinions are always poo pooed. It's not like I don't try to be my own person, and yes I have grown leeps and bounds since my Dad's illness and I was away from hom so much. My independence grew and is still growing. It's just sometimes so frustrating to deal with someone living in the 18th century. He's maddly in love don't you know and that is supposed to solve all of life's riddles. And yet, I don't even have the nerve to hurt him by telling him that not only do I NOT love him, I don't want to be around him, he grosses me out, and I can't stop finding fault, and his years of lack of respect towards me has finally oozed into my poors and I have no respect for him. I need Dr. Phil. seriously, I need Dr Phil.
