He’s a deadbeat dad and I’m done with him….
I regret ever trying to have a relationship with my dad. We talked on the phone a few times and that was it, it wasn’t until I was 19 that he even bothered to call me. And the only reason he did was because my ex-stepmom had found me online and gave him my home number telling him to call me. Then one day he stops calling me and I haven’t heard from him since. He’s an awful father, he has 5 other children and only takes care of 3, and that’s only because he actually stayed married to this woman and I’m sure he figures he actually has to step up and be a dad. If he ever does. The shitty part is we lived 5 minutes away from each other and he knew that and he never wanted to meet. He’s a deadbeat dad and I’m done with him. I wish I would have never talked to him on the phone and believed his promises. It was a waste of time, and so is he.

some people never want to accept responsabilities,your father is missing out on a great deal of love,he will one day,no doubt end up a very lonely old man,I can see that in spite of the way he has treated you and ignored you,you did all you could to get close to him,sadly it is all you can do,the rest is up to him,some people lack the capacity to relate to others,they find it hard if not impossible to give and receive love,something could have happened in their childhood and they bailed out.You are a loving person,you are able to love and receive love and you will make a wonderful parent one day,I can see you hurt a lot about your father because you believe a father should love his child but sadly this is not the case,there are emotionally absent parents in this world and there is little one can do about it.You will have to be brave and move on and concentrate on yourself,you have plenty of living and loving to do.take care.
