However, seeing as this is your father I'm going to assume you've spent years together so it must be something else. Perhaps he isn't ready for...|||I would suggest starting small. If someone asks you which restaurant you'd like to go to make a definitive decision instead of saying I don't know or Why don't you decide. Build up to bigger,...|||It's a week away now. Another one of those days that's always hard for me to get through, no matter how many years have gone by.

Also, I'm not a touchy-huggy kind of person in general, but I've always craved/felt comforted by being...|||I struggled with assertiveness until I hit adulthood...then I learned that no one will respect me if I act like a doormat. I still hate conflict, but I hate being disrespected or being treated poorly...|||I believe you are right about wanting to feel included.

I don't think I could stand idly by and let someone speak in an unnecessarily harsh or mean tone with someone I love...hell, I probably would step in even if I...|||No I was not. My goal was to stay under the radar, get good grades, and get out of there everyday.
