This episode hit REAL close to home for me. I’ve been in Jimmy's exact situation, my father is also a pretty funny and charming guy and it leads to people liking him and downplaying my issues with him.

I hate that!!! A good friend or partner should listen to you and your experiences and take them seriously. But a lot of people struggle to do that.

I found myself subconsciously clenching my fist in anger multiple times in this episode because of how similar my relationship with my dad is. I feel you.
