Is there something wrong with me?!
Question: Is there something wrong with me?
So there's this male teacher who I have bonded with and the only one I've actually told some of my problems (I don't open much to people) I see him as a father figure and I don't know if this is okay...My father is alive, but I don't have a stable relationship because he has picked his nieces and his side of the family over me, my sibling, and mother.
This teacher has actually been like a father to me, always supporting me and advising me, unlike my father who wants me to go to a college he wants to visit...

No dear! Theres nothing wrong with you. just because your father is family, doesn't mean you will have that father-daughter relationship. Its wonderful that you have found a father figure to look to, as long as it becomes nothing more. You are perfectly normal :)
It's normal for teenagers to seek other role models, but usually there is a reason everyone is against you.
