I agree you miss out on a lot. I shut myself off from my father emotionally back in '90. I think i missed out on some opportunities to love and to be loved by him during the last 8 years of his life. But I had taken my last with him one night when he threw me out of the house for buying a car without asking his permission. I was 24 at the time, go figure that I needed approval. Was paying rent to boot. For me it was the last straw. I erected the wall and never tore it down. It wasn't until after his death that I felt that I could and in all honesty only recently did so.
Relationships hurt from time to time but they are worth the pain by far. It's just some relationships have the ability to wound far deeper than others and in this case it hurts pretty deep. But I set myself up for the hurt so I have only me to blame.
