Perhaps this story is for those men out there who struggle with lust and are, or aspire to be a dad/husband.
Growing up being the eldest daughter, I was soo close with my dad, I viewed him as the perfect man, and that he has no flaws. Little by little that perfect image started to fade away, but as I grew older, I realized that not everyone is perfect, and even our parents are human too. But his red flags become clearer and clearer as time moved on: putting all the responsibility of raising me and my siblings on my mom, being emotionally unavailable, and so much more. when I was 15, while I was on my dad’s phone, I decided to check his YouTube history cause I was curious, aside from endless videos of politics, I saw a sexual video of a girl, my heart sank. Idk why but I litteraly began trembling, like I was not supposed to find this out. From that day, I never looked at him the same way again. This man, the same “religious man” who keeps telling my mom to cover herself up cause he’s “ jealous” and she’s his “property” (he literally said that in front of me btw). I felt so disgusted, I feel uncomfortable hugging him, and so on. Now seeing with a clearer lens, I see how my mom, despite them being married for 20years, still putting an effort on doing her makeup, wearing appealing and revealing clothes to satisfy him. I feel bad for her tbh, like he should love you no matter how u look, especially after being married for 20 years and having 3 kids. So many times he emotionally manipulates her in front of me, and I hate it. He’s selfish, and only using mom to satisfy his never ending desires. Now I’m 19, and no matter how hard I try, I just can’t see him the same way again. I don’t even like talking to him, and by that it’s just a one sided conversation from his side since he doesn’t even listen to what I say.Even now, from time to time I check his YouTube history, only to find the exact same shit…
