I am lucky enough to have two dads to call my own. So, when one does not answer, there is another one right around the corner. If you are anything like me, you call your dad about the most practical things while the impractical is for your mother. My practical list includes…
1. When you need money.
Well, it is true.
2. When you need someone to explain men to you.
It is great to have a man's perspective on why Chad is not texting you.
3. When something is wrong with your car.
Dads are cheaper than mechanics, granted that they can actually fix the problem.
4. When you are dying.
My mother never answers the phone so the first person I would call would be my father.
5. When you want a free dinner.
Again, it is true.
6. When you want to hang out with someone without judgment.
My dad accepts me for everything I am, and my rebellious side is due to him so when I feel judged by the world, he is who I turn to.
7. When you need an ego boost.
Sometimes Tinder does not always work and you need a completely biased opinion.
8. When you need someone beat up.
Obviously, it does not go farther than ranting, but his threats are sometimes needed. Like the reassurance that he would do it solves all your problems.
9. When you need advice about what to buy a boy.
Who is better at knowing what a guy wants than a guy?
10. When you get into trouble.
I have had two wrecks and two fender benders, and the first person I always call is my stepdad.
