I’m always weirded out by people who had good fathers -- it just seems unnatural. Everyone knows moms run the world.

My father only did one great thing in his life; he died.
I feel like I need to stand up for fathers. My Father was great. Loved me very much, taught me a lot about life, helped me financially to establish myself. He died in 2010 and is sorely missed by my brother and me.
My father loved is family. He was a great role model as a husband, father, scientist, and a professional. He cared for people, animals, and the natural world. He died two years ago on Father's Day.
Yes, a lot of people I know had great fathers. That's what I'm getting at here -- it's all so foreign to me, having lost my dad to alcoholism when I was 5.
I am lucky to have had a loving stepfather for the past 50 years, but even there we didn't have an autonomous relationship -- never had anything in common or did anything "just the two of us."
Hopefully it's true that you can't miss something you never had. :-)
