It finally hit me. my last 2 relationships were wrecked, in large part, by unresolved childhood trauma around absent parents. The worst aggression I’ve ever experienced in a relationship came from partners who grew up with an absent father (or no father figure at all), and had zero interest in working on it through therapy. I’m not perfect. But I’ve been in therapy for 20 years, so I’ve dealt with, and can deal with, my own traumas. So now I’m thinking maybe I should pay more attention to whether someone has unaddressed family wounds before getting involved. Might sound stupid to realize this now, but after a lot of pain, I finally see it clearly. submitted by /u/stay667
