Is it possible(and problematic) to break free from patterns of chasing your Daddy in dating life?

Hey coco_heads I grew up in a broken home with an angry authoritative father who I loved unconditionally. As a young girl all I wanted was to do well and make him proud.

After I started dating, I noticed patterns of chasing similar men. Is this a bad thing? Main stream has stylised it so much, I used to dislike this. I thought I would be different but turns out that I'm not.

It's not that I am having any problems because of this, I like being dependent (not financially). I felt safe and secure in my past relationship.

What are your thoughts?! No hate please I'm super sensitive.
