No fool like an old fool

“If I can save just one sorry mf from a life of misery then I know what I’ve been put on this planet for, greetings btw” -Quiet Desperation

I share the sentiment, even though I escaped young enough to make up for lost time in pumping and dumping. My dad tried to hint at this so many times. I think it was just his frustration seeping out. I don’t know why I didn’t listen. Maybe it was because he was always so negative about anything I did, and I discovered as I grew up, anything he did too. I suppose his frustrations wore him down. Though I did forgive him about the time I turned 18 for always tearing me down when I noticed him putting himself down, I hadn’t made that much effort to reconnect. Now I am feeling that I should.

I always figured there was a reason he was divorced because I remember the fights, or at least how scary he got…like a bull in a china shop, but I never really remembered why the fights got started. Now that I have seen how ridiculous it is to try to talk, reason, beg, or yell a bitch into acting responsibly, I suspect he had his reasons.

Before you say NAWALT, condemn those women publicly; it's like a signal flare to the good men you can't find. But. first...stop being THAT girl.
