Confessing feelings for my father
So I (F22) grew up not really knowing my dad (M39), it wasn't until I was a teenager that I got to meet him for the first time. At the time I saw him as a deadbeat so didn't really care to get to know him. After my mom passed however he opened his door to me, and I live with him for the next 2 years before college. Those two years were rough but ultimately fine, we got at least on speaking terms and I stopped outright hating him. I at least knew why he wasn't ready to be a father.. and didn't mind not having him in my life before that. College came and went, I almost finished my associates before having to drop out for personal reasons. Now I've been back to living with my dad since about January? I thought he'd give me shit for dropping out but he never did.. he just let me start working with him. And I guess that's kinda were the feelings started. I didn't realize they were feelings at first, moments of obsessively thinking about him, or worrying about disappointing him. Or the times were I made up reasons to not hang out with my friends just to hang out even on our days off. We slowly bonded more and more through excitement, interests, and sadness. But I put those feelings aside, cause he's my dad. I knew I had feelings for him at this point but I didn't realize how strong until he mistook me for my mother one night when we were drinking.
Nothing serious happened, but he came on to me a bit and kissed me. We were both drunk and he doesn't seem to have remembered it, or maybe he's just suppressing it. Idk, but that really did something in me and, I just need to tell him about these feelings. I know what he's going to say and I'm 100% fine with that. It may ruin our relationship but I need to tell him so that I can move on past this. This is my way of psyching my way into doing it, ripping off the bandaid and moving on with my father as my father.
