This is how I knew I didn't live in a happy home. My brother and I got along well when our father was not around. (I wouldn't say he was an abusive father. Just not a person anyone enjoys being around for extended time. He's an ex military man who's life was too rough for anyone to come out happy. And emotionally cold.)
Pretty much same here, but dad was a cop. And not emotionally cold, which made it probably a different kind of fucked up. (Got both the I-love-yous and the getting-taken-care-of and the familial-physical-proximity, but then also got the "I'mma teach you by screaming at you", "insulting and shaking you when you fail", and the "SHUT UP I'M TRYING TO WATCH THE NEWS" during dinners.)
I'm pretty sure this is one of the reasons why today, as a grown ass adult, I just wish to stay at home by my wholesome / with the SO and never call my friends and family. I'm just content... nay, I'm hanging to my calm and peace with my life, to the point of it being a problem.
This. And my family is like, why do you never come around???
Spend 20 minutes with them, "you still dating her?! We think dating outside the race and a trans women... We just don't agree."
Me "whelp, This has been fun. I'll see yall never."
