Re: I'm so sorry you and other members of your family went thru this. How

Thanks!  I'm sure the term "Am I Invisible" struck a chord with you in a different way. It's very odd that the very thing that turned you OFF about your Dad will be the FIRST thng that you will find "attractive in a man of your choice"  that sounds awful and SICK but the Father of my children WAS a sex maniac from hell and seemed to be addicted to sex, alcohol, weed, and drugs and ALLERGIC to work or anything that might improve our lives.  WHY would I be attracted to someone like that?  FIRST BAD CHOICE!  The only good thing he gave me was MY CHILDREN and between he and my Dad they created a MONSTER in ME. 

My daughter too is the only girl with four older brothers.  I warned her about anybody touching her in the wrong places from the time she was THREE!  I'm sure I made her TOTALLY paranoid of men!  She married when she was 18 and had one daughter of her own.  Her marriage wasn't good and she missed out on a lot of good things.  I WONDER if that was MY fault!!  She has now been divorced for about three years and is happier than I've ever seen her. I honestly HOPE that you haven't or didn't make these bad choices in men before you realized it.............................

I'm so sorry you and other members of your family went thru this. How
horrible...it's brave and good of you to share and start this blog. I was raised in a home with four older brothers and I was the only girl. I am lucky (and blessed) that this never happened to me. I had the opposite problem -- a dad that showed no emotional interest in me. Believe me, that has its consequences as well, though nothing like what you went thru, I'm sure. Welcome to Blogit.
