She associates commitment with attachment, and attachment means loss.
She has a darkness to her that she hides flawlessly.
When someone mentions her father, habitually, she says she does not have one.

The words roll off the tip of her tongue so fluently its almost as if they had been rehearsed.
She isnt afraid of being loved, shes afraid of being left.
Because shes learned that even the people who promise to love you unconditionally will eventually leave.

The fatherless girl has a wildly independent spirit.
Thats because she needed to grow up a little sooner than others.
She was forced to accept to an apology that she didnt receive.
She had to piece back together a large part of her soul that was missing.
The fatherless girl needed to be independent, so her independence is something she takes pride in.
Her strength has developed through coping with the absence of a father in her life.
Its taught her how to be independent and self-sufficient.
These are the traits she admires most about herself.
The fatherless girl knows exactly how to avoid conflict because shes seen how easily it will make someone run.
She needs to stay on good terms with people she loves the most because she fears that theyll leave.
She knows it all too well.
She uses sarcasm as her first language.
Sometimes she wonders if shes just damaged and incapable of finding something real.
The fatherless girl has trusted men who didnt treat her properly.
She wants to find someone to take care of her like every father should.
She is searching for the part of her that went missing.
She craves the man she can put all of her trust in.
The man that would do anything for her.
But he fell short to all of her expectations.
The fatherless girl knows very well that people can leave, so she clings tightly and detaches lightly.
She cant let herself get close to you unless she believes in you.
She hates being labeled as damaged, because shes not.
She does not want any of your pity, because shes had enough of it by now.
You probably wont always understand the mind of the fatherless girl.
Its complex and bewildering.
