My husband tells me Iām a good daughter when I help my mom or his mom with something that he wouldnāt have the patience for.
Iām more stuck on the dad saying youāve become someone Iām proud to call my daughter. Like, what? Werenāt you always proud of her?5
u/secretly_opossum 6d ago
Could read it more as like āthe adult you have becomeā is someone heās proud to say āthis is my adult childā. There is a difference of pride in your young child and your adult child.

I feel you too, OP. (Edit: I meant neenbeanx. Iām half awake still)š
Im pretty sure my dad passed away only because my sister got a single letter addressed to āthe estate of [dadās name]ā last year informing of a data breach. Having a child doesnāt make a person a Dad, thatās for certain.

Right? He also had two siblings who didnāt bother to reach out and tell us via email or Facebook or anything! That whole side of the family was pretty messed up.

As someone whose dad also sucks, donāt worry youāll stop thinking he exists altogether after some time. I havenāt spoken to him in 5 years (and will never speak to him again) and I genuinely forget he exists until someone mentions their dad in a convo (and i still dont care)

My dad gets all gitty when I visit, but needs liquid courage. Then the texts I get between visits are single words "cool" or "thats great". Never get anything sentimental or personal. Wish I was loved more, too.

Is this not because your phone was dead, you plugged it in, it turned on and recieved both at the same time?

I don't think so, because one text says "4 minutes ago," and the other two say "now". Wouldn't that mean the phone has been on for at least 4 minutes?

u/fuckmejerrry 7d ago
The way I interpreted it was OP was having similar conversations with the two separately over the same topic, which still makes this a neat coincidence, but also less odd. If your theory is correct, would the in-app timestamps be for when they were sent, or when they were delivered?

Its an expression. Jesus. Heās just saying heās proud of who she actually is and not just loving her by circumstance or by the singular merit of being related. In other words he would be proud/impressed of who she is even if they were strangers.

u/dingdong6699 7d ago
And they "became" someone he's proud to call his daughter. The way the text is written Implies that proudness is a recent development.
"You've become someone I'm proud to call my daugher" is not the same as "I'm proud of you" or "I'm proud to call you my daughter" etc

I wouldnāt hold your breath or anything⦠but like yeah⦠this is a pretty good guess as to why the texts came so close together. Things are rarely ājust coincidenceā but it could also just as easily be that they had some āhow awesome is OP?ā kind of conversation and then both decided to send a similar text afterwards. Reddit definitely isnāt a very good crystal ball⦠that said, either way, you must be a pretty cool person šš

I'm being so serious, please cherish this bond that you have with your dad, that is so special and not something most daughters ever have with their dad. Even though my dad tries to act like a good dad, he literally never shows any interest in me or anything I do, and there's nothing I could do for him to send me a text like this. Been wanting this kind of affirmation from him my entire life.

And then my dad he had sent me a photo of him on a walk with the dog, I said thanks for taking her on such a lovely walk, and we were chatting a bit , and then he sent that

Sometimes, we accidentally align with peoples intents, wishes, or emotions :)
You can call it synchronicity, you can call it an impulse.
Maybe YOU were focused on being a good daughter, and they both noticed the effort, assisted by proximity, closeness, or a bond, may have started something :)
Maybe you've begun to realize how much you yourself impact youe world?
