Crazy, I was going to make a thread on the same topic
Honestly my g/f has been RASHING my upbringing and pointing out all of the negatives to how I was brought up and how I interact with women. Granted I turned out ok as a person. No major crimes committed and a general respect overall for women .... but she's been pointing out all the little shyt. And kind of getting in my head. Fukking me up for real. I'm not Really gonna go much deeper than that until this thread at least reaches a third page. But even with that being said ... a year back my nikka @Mowgli pointed out a character claw of mines kinda on point ... that he attributed to overbearing single parent mom's ... had me all fukked up but I just moved on cuz I was fukking mad hoes .... it's wild.

Call me what u want but I'm in my shyt this morning. Life hard as a ho for real.

I grew up with a single mother for a little while and then she got married. I was in elementary school when she got married to my step daddy. But I guess I can say the best thing about having a single mother was that she was not alone. My grandparents lived right up the street so I would be with them alot just as well. It took a village....

My gf was raised by a crazy simple mother and though you can see the differences the father issues are very apparent. She'd be perfect if she had the consistency only a man could bring

Shyt my girl didn't even have a mom... had no family really. Shes crazy as hell and just innately doesn't understand how to carry herself. She kinda forces herself to carry herself well if that makes any sense. But deep down she's fukking feral.

was your father around at all OP
Sporadically. Left when I was around 6 .. saw him twice around 12 didn't gear from him again until like 16? But by that time I was gone. Didn't care about him... did the g thing like everyone else around me.

I did. Way more pros than cons for me.

I think coming into realization how much work your mom has done by herself helps you learn to appreciate the simple things in life.

It really depends on your mom though. My mom is encouraging, caring, supportive, determined, mellow. So I came out on top imo.

I can't really think of any cons tbh because I don't know what the pros and cons are of having a father, but you'd be wrong to think they're all pros, take a look around at the people IRL and on here.

I do think your gf is in the wrong though, especially to comment on your upbringing, to point out faults when your mother worked hard single handedly to provide for you. You need to check her, because your mom would be calling you a hoe right now.

I been checking her. I probably should've said that before but it's w.e... but still, she has been right in some cases.
