Your Dad’s Lesson:
For many years I picked girls who couldn’t be treated well, meaning that the better I treated them, the worse they treated me. It wasn’t their fault — I was the same way. They would show me love, and I would treat them poorly. I would show them love, and they would treat me poorly. Like many trying to find a suitable companion, I thought that making a better list of the qualities I sought would improve the result, but it didn’t matter. I had yet to love myself. Sometime after I learned to love myself, your mother came into my life and confirmed that I could give a lot of love and get it back in return. Not to mention that she took my breath away.
