My Parents Love; And How They Saved Me
I was average in school, my appearance and my grades. I didn't have a lot of friends. I found it more pleasant to play by my self or read a book. Nancy Drew was my favorite from the time I started reading until well into my high school years. Boys were always a curiosity to me but they were simply too erratic and impulsive for me. I kept my distance from them. I still had a great relationship with my dad and mom during my high school years. I see now that once puberty hit, I changed how I behaved with my dad. The onslaught of puberty seem to wreck what we once had. We went from wrestling and hugging and hanging out eating ice-cream while talking about sports and music to a more physically restrained affection. We didn't talk as much about sports and music because I started to listen to music that he didn't understand and I simply loss interest in sports. I thought it too boyish for me as I was becoming a woman. More like a silly girl then a woman in retrospect. Still, we all loved each other and that stayed the same. I suppose it is still there now, I am just too filled with shame to accept my parents love. I don't believe I am worthy of it anymore. They tell me no, that I am as worthy of their love as ever. They try to make me feel like our love, the love of a mother, father and their child, can never change. I hear them but I see a difference in their eyes when they tell me this. It is different then before. My life changed in college. Not for the best. I met and began dating my first real boyfriend in college. His name is no longer important. I will call him Tony for the sake of using a name.Pages: 1 [2] 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
