Didn't fail at any discrete thing, my dad just went off on me the other night and repeatedly let me know that he considers me a failure right now, especially re: deciding to move twice in one year, investing time in non-masculine hobbies/skillsets (sewing etc), telling my parents that it is almost definite that I am never going to be giving them grandkids.

After reminding my dad that he was my age over FORTY FUCKING YEARS ago, that he changed cities three times when he was 22, and was working minimum wage jobs for a few years after college, he settled down a bit. It just made me feel a bit shitty.

(sorry for making this a mini-pubski, bfv :/)
