So I asked a question just a couple of minutes ago about my miserable relationship with my dad. The answerers were very nice and told me to talk it out with him. They obviously don't know my dad... but that's not what this is about. My father issues are becoming more prominent because I'm going through the 'teenage angst' thing. I never thought it would really happen to me though! I've always been very bookish, and happy with it, but suddenly I want to be pretty (which I'm not particularly), and fit in (which I don't very well), and I want to have a boyfriend (I have a great best friend but I still feel desperately lonely). I want someone to hold, someone to touch, somewhere that I feel like I belong. I want someone to stroke my face and tell me they love me, that they accept me, that it's going to be okay. But I don't have anyone. Why is this happening? How do I make it go away?
