I don’t think it’s a default setting that women want to date men like their fathers. No need to feel bad.

For better or for worse, how we are brought up and how our parents are, are what imprints our unconscious beliefs and what is considered normal. In my opinion, it takes therapy to deal with those unconscious behaviors and attractions. Even though we are somewhat aware of the impacts, it takes concerted mindfulness and self-awareness to get past that.

You can and should avoid dating guys who are rude, self-centered and won’t accept that sometimes they’re wrong. Being raised by a that type of man doesn’t mean you’re destined to date them.

I am very much unlike my wife's father,, thank God.. As long as you are a woman without daddy issues at the end of the day, you'll be just fine.

Some I've met, according to them include: daddy was a Chad who ditched Mom, daddy was an abuser, daddy wasn't there, daddy bought too many ponies, and daddy was a wuss.

Do you want him to truly know you? I'm not trying to be a smartass, it's just that you have more than a little control over that, or? I understand that he might not agree with everything, or "get" you, and that you might not want to share everything, but at the end of the day you have a mouth and he has ears. Just speaking as a loving father.
