All I can say is that if I was looking for my father in a relationship I'd need to find an emotionally unstable, egotistic, absent man who would let me down at every turn if I would ever be stupid enough to trust him. I can honestly say I'm not looking for that. As for anyone else, I have no idea. [huh]
Aaaaand... I just realised that I described my longest relationship. Exactly my ex, that. My problem is that I fall for guys I find intelligent and who make me laugh and I think the other things slipped past due to poor screening from my side (I was painfully young).
Well, at least I'm wiser now. Burnt child fears fire, as the Swedish expression goes.
