I want to be a good dad. I feel like that would be pretty much the only goal I would need in this life. I'm not sure why. It might be biological but it doesn't feel like that in my gut. I think the biological feeling I should have now is to find a mate. I think the raising a child comes once I sense the pregnancy of my partner.
I have always thought I would be best as a support character. I don't really need or want anything for myself. But I would love to help someone I love to achieve their dreams. I think being a dad would be fit that pattern really well.
There might also be a feeling that I can be a better dad than my dad was to me emotionally. It's not that my dad wasn't a good dad, but we are so incompatible it makes me sad. I wanted emotional and spiritual guidance, but I only got practical tips. There's a chance that same compatibility issue could happen with my kids. So for that, I will be training in patience.
