I hear what youre saying. Girls need dads to teach them how men are supposed to treat women. I'm sure therapy helps. I have seen many women become successful after recovering from tremendous hardships and trauma. Just don't do it the way I did; alone. It doesnt work and you end up feeling more distant from the possibility of trustworthy intimacy as time goes on without therapy. Keep talking about it, and try out some therapists. Perferably female therapists.
Hang out with people you want to be like, not those less than you. They will bring you up to their level if you can overcome your feelings of not being good enough. (I'm only assuming you feel that way from what you wrote.)
Unfortunately, it doesn't get better overnight, but it's the PROCESS of healing that will actually heal you.
