I don't think she cares. She would do anything for anyone but me. I guess I can just say that I am kind of just there. I always thought I wasn't even a planned...
The worst thing that can happen is to be born to bad parents. I'm sorry that you didn't have a great experience with your father. Any of the trauma inflicted upon you isn't your fault so don't blame yourself. You stated you forgive him but closing old wounds takes time and sometimes even separation from the source that caused said wounds.
Do you feel that if someone 'nursed' you that would help you to heal? I don't have the entire context on what you mean by that but I suspect that using that coping mechanism may lead to forming unhealthy relationships with others. I feel that might be the last thing you need.
At the end of the day your feelings are valid and are real. You aren't a bad person and you are strong for acknowledging that you didn't grow up with the much needed lack of parental care from your father. You do however deserve acceptance, love, and healthy bonds from people who genuinely care for you. They are out there waiting for you and I know you'll find them.
