So I’ve got myself in a situation, well situation is putting in lightly I’ve got myself in a compromising situation in all aspects I want to turnaround and tell her to get rid and we can carry on with life the way it was but I don’t want to be known for that you know the guy who so inhuman.

f. I’m what they like to call a daddy’s girl. I love my dad to bits. He is actually the greatest man in the world. I hear all my friends talking about how their dad were never there and how some of them never even knew who their fathers were.
I could never imagine what life would be like without my daddy. He inspires me, comforts me and always gives me the confidence I need.
Lately though, all my relationships have been failing on me. None of these boys seem to understand my situation. I’m looking for my daddy’s love in them, but the only man who could give me that love died of cancer two years ago today. I don’t see how I can live without my daddy’s love.
