Should I feel insulted? My dad said he found a pregnancy test in the trash and he just stared at me expecting me to answer?

I've never had sex and I'm waiting for marriage. What happened is my dad thought he found a pregnancy test in the trash and he indirectly implied it was mine. It was actually a covid rapid test but I felt very insulted by his accusation since I'm very religious and strictly waiting for marriage. It felt like he doesn't believe I'm a virgin and he thinks I'm like sleeping around with a bunch of guys. Should I overlook this? I can't help but feel hurt by it.

  • You have every reason to feel that way, seems like he doesn't know you very well or trusts you.

  • Correct him immediately.

    • Correct his error, and give him the opportunity to apologize. Don't allow this issue to fester and drive a wedge between you.

    • Do it NOW, before the garbage truck comes!

    • My dad never apologizes because he feels he's never wrong. And he also feels because he's the man of the house he never has to apologize. I have to apologize it anything just because I am his kid and I have to show him respect 24/7 even though he doesn't respect me and treats me however he wants like accusing me of being a whore for no reason

  • That’s what dads do…. You’ll get it one day. I’m not saying you should not be angered.

    • I'm 28 though. Is that normal behavior to have with a daughter who's almost in her 30s? If I was that kind of girl sleeping with men before marriage, that wouldn't be his problem would it? I'm not a child anymore and if anything did happen I would just raise the kid with the guy I slept with. I don't get why he still treats me with this fear like I'm a 14 year old girl. It's also insulting that he doesn't trust, doesn't understand my character. The fact that I wouldn't do that. I honestly think he thinks I'm not a virgin and I'm like constantly sleeping around

    • An anon asker is usually younger than you. You are a Diamond. Some guy is going to find or already has found a gem 💎.

  • I would be offended. I'm not saying it's necessarily right, but I would.

    • Thank you. I thought maybe I was being too sensitive but I'm glad I'm not the only one

  • Your old enough that your dad shouldn't even be caring if your taking a pregnancy test

    • I live with my parents because we're old school. I live with them until I get married.

    • But yeah he does treat me like a child. I live two blocks away from a park and I can't walk there by myself he's afraid I'll get kidnapped off the streets. And we live in a really good area too

    • Omg sucks that he is so over protective. That would drive me crazy

  • If it was in your house I mean who else's would it be? And tbh they look a lot like pregnancy tests (granted I don't know exactly what a pregnancy test looks like I've never inspected one)

  • If it an at home coved test show him the box it came in

  • are you an only child?

    • I'm the only girl in my family

    • Then they would have a reason to look at you, if theyre finding one, especially if they're not being sexually active themselves I know i shouldn't assume but typically, parents, aren't sexualy active. It's difficult to

  • you're almost 30...

  • If your age is correct. Time to move out!

  • Your father has every right to suspect you of being a sinful person. There were women in the Bible such as Jezebel whose body was devoured by dogs. You don't want to end up like Jezebel. Instead of being mad at your father, you should read your Bible and say you're sorry to God for upsetting your father.

    • He jumped the gun assuming it was a pregnancy test. That's not my fault, that's his fault. Also I think about becoming a nun from time to time. How can he insult me with such an accusation when I think about devoting my entire life to God?
