okay so my friend is beyond shocked that I don’t like my dad because apparently her dad is like the best fucking thing since sliced bread (wow congratulations friend but not all dads are as wonderful as yours) and she always brings it up at school around people and she’s always saying stuff like “Olivia hates her dad” and “You don’t really hate him” and “Shut up you love your dad”

so today she brought it up in english class while all these other people were around and she was like “well it’s not like he hits you or anything lol” and I just kind of sat there and she was like “does he hit you?” and I was like yeah we get in fights sometimes and she was like “haha yeah my dad used to spank me with a belt when I was little. does he hit you in the face?” and I was like yeah and she was like “do you cry” and it kind of went on like that for a while

it just pisses me off a lot because she doesn’t understand how shitty he is to me and getting spanked when you’re a kid isn’t the same as your dad just getting mad at you and smacking you okay? i mean it’s not like he hits me a lot but he’s a jerk in a lot of other ways, like always calling me names and pointing out what I do wrong.

and then she always brings it up in public like I really dont want to have this conversation in the middle of english class while other people are listening and probably think i’m really pathetic but she just doesn’t fucking get it and I wanted to cry and I almost had a panic attack in the hallway today and it’s just not a good day
