Never have I ever heard "I'm proud of you" from my Dad :'(

I'm not your dad, but I'm proud of you. The absolute least I know about you is you don't mind admitting pain, so I'm proud of you. ๐Ÿซ‚

Mine died when I was 12 so I'm not sure if he never said it, or I just don't rmemeber. I'm over 40 now.

He's proud of you. It's a dad thing, trust me.

Is that a thing dads say sometimes? Weird.

Surprised at the amount of upvotes. I thought dads only said that shit in sitcoms.

One of the last things my dad said to me before he died was I'm proud of you son. He made a point to say it at least once a year just to make sure that I knew.
