23 year old male here. Been with about 50 women sexually, be it one night stands or FWB. Been in LTR with 3 women, was close to a 4th. Just exited an LTR after she cheated and left.

What's curious about these 4 women is that they all have strained relationships with their real fathers, to varying degrees. Allow me to elaborate:

Girl 1: "Hailey": Dad was an alcoholic and mom kicked him out of the family. He's sober now and the relationship between Hailey and him is actually fine. We actually went out to dinner a few times.

Girl 2: "Ellie": Ellie's dad died when she was about 3. There was a gap in her life where she was fatherless, but by about 12 years old her mother had remarried a good dude. Ellie was the most confident/most controlling of the LTR's

Girl 3: "Kylie": Kylie's dad was a drug addict who abandoned the family. Curious enough, her and I started dating when I was addicted to cocaine and pain pills. She didn't behave like a typical Daddy Issues girl: not affectionate, never had sex, but towards the end she started acting more feminine with me. She baffles me a bit.

Girl 4: "Allie": This is the girl that lead me to TRP. Our first date we had sex four times. She was always the one initiating sex, would get mad whenever I would try. Cooked for me, cleaned for me, was all over me affectionately. Showered me with praise. Dad was an alcoholic who abandoned the family, she was raised alone by her alcoholic mom.

All these girls had overlapping traits: low self-esteem combatting with a inflated sense of self, constant need for validation, good girl behavior intermittent with disrespectful, cold behavior. REALLY low tolerance for the failure of even minor shit tests. Loved control, feared submission, but responded almost immediately to Dread Game. HIGH sex drive and body count, particularly with Allie (8 by 19).

After doing some reading about girls with daddy issues (heretofore known as GDI), I've found it remarkable that I seem to attract them without trying. It's not like I ask a girl about her relationship with her father prior to inviting them over or asking them out. Yet even some of the one night stands I have had casually mention how their dad's an asshole, etc.

My mother was a drug addict who was constantly belittling my father in front of us kids. She grew up on a pig farm and kicked me, choked me, hit me, even spit on me once. Not a hugger. Constantly evaluating my appearance and comparing it with other boys from the neighborhood.

Led to believe that the physical affection, positive attention is what gets me hooked to these girls, and eventually what flips me into a beta once they start to withdraw (I am a dope fiend at heart, after all).

I've had the opportunity to upgrade some hotties to level 3, but I get bored with them as they don't essentially worship the ground I walk on from the jump like the GDI do. Will spending enough time with them unlock that side of them?

I'll admit that when Allie left, I tried getting her back, but after reading TRP I know that with some self improvement, I can finally attract a girl that has higher self-esteem and won't require constant validation from men. The thing is though, I LOVED how Allie treated me in the beginning. Wondering if it's possible to get that sort of treatment from a non-GDI girl. Because as I've come to believe, GDI girls are incapable of LTR's. They require constant validation from you, yet the minute you give it to them, their vaginas naturally dry up. Curious is anyone's had success with GDI's in long-term. Or is it possible to get a quality woman from a good home to turn that "good girl" switch on?
