" i can support you, i can love you but sometimes you just have to get over things. you are not the only person in this world with divorced parents"


THIS. 

this seems so friendly on the outside. it even might seem like a caring friend or a nice gesture with a purpose of consoling me. 

this is not the case. 


THIS.

This is belittling.

This was written by my father, in a text. after i spent the entire night before crying. no,not just crying.
i mean clutching-your-heart-unable-to-breathe-at-3-in-the-morning crying. i cried till my tear ducts were dry. 

when i went to tell him how i very seriously felt. that was his response.

no responsibility, no guilt, no consolation prize. 

jut this. yeah OK, there are tons of people dealing with this, but your daughter is struggling and you gave a response that you would give a stranger. 

thanks.
