[RL]: My father has these extreme sexist moments at time.
Alexceptional
So I stopped drinking caffeine and it's definitely helped with the anxiety and with lovely face breakouts
Alexceptional
So my face was actually clear of any scabs for a change when I went on vacation to visit my dad
Alexceptional
SO THIS EVENING
Alexceptional
I talked with him on the phone and he says "You know. That no coffee thing really worked. You actually looked beautiful for a change."
Alexceptional
Alexceptional
"Send me pictures, I want to show you off now."

Alexceptional
Uh. Thanks?

His exact words, y e p

How I have any salvageable self-esteem amazes me some days.

It sounds like he's trying to be encouraging but totally off point. Just remember that, no matter what, you're stunning.
Rogal Dorn
God dammit that's a shitty thing to say
Alexceptional
I'm not sure how to point that out to him though
Alexceptional
Which sounds weird, but he's outright oblivious
unkie 🌚
wat
papermint tiger
that's a hell of a backhand compliment
Lunare
I suggest you just bring it up. Be straight with him and let him know that you feel the way he compliments you is sometimes backhanded.
Lunare
Maybe mention you don't think he does it on purpose so he doesn't feel the need to defend himself.
Alexceptional
If this comes up again, I'll give it a try.
