I tell him quite often that I don't need him, for anything. I know that it hurts him. But I just don't want to feel indebted to him in any way. The rare times I have asked him for help I have paid him(over-paid) and made him take the money.
Deep down I feel that if I am indebted in any way I am setting myself up to be abused or taken advantage of. And I know that stems from my childhood. That plus the fact that I needed so much in childhood and nobody was there for me and I don't want to take a chance on feeling that way again. Of course I know I am not a child anymore but stuff like that stays with you.
