Yeah, totally one of those people. I still have it, even! What do you say to telepathic bacteria?

She kept letters and gifts my dad sent me and didn't bother to tell me, just let me believe he dropped off the face of the planet. I convinced myself he died because that was easier than thinking he didn't care about me at all anymore when he clearly had cared about me up until he left after their divorce was final. And I accepted my parents didn't love each other anymore when they divorced, but it didn't change the fact I needed both of my parents to help me back then. My mom did everything she could for me, I'm not knocking her for that. I'm mostly thinking I could've avoided a lot of shit in my teens if I hadn't gone and convinced myself my dad was dead when he really wasn't.
