Sapphyre Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 don't give up! I can see that he is still trying to work at you guys' relationship...he was trying to do something nice for you with the whole car buying thing...see, if you continuously not like what a man does for you and complain, even though he keeps trying to make u happy, he will give up eventually and just not try anymore! correct me you guys if I'm wrong...but that's my understanding of men...Men are different and women are different... appreciate what he does for you and thank him and little by little you two will have a better relationship focus on the good stuff of his and do nice things for him too he is your dad and in life, family is what you got most of the time! I'm not saying I'm an expert at relationships, but hey, I made my parents sit and talked to them for a long time when they were about to get a divorce (I was 20 years old then)...they are started to work at it and they are much happier and spend a lot of time with eachother going out and having fun and they went to Europe (I see that as a second honeymoon) and they always go out and take weekend vacations with relatives or by themselves the only reason he even bought me a car is so that he can get rid of me asap. he really doesnt want me living with him, which is fine- im moving out next week sometime anyway (which means i'll be without the net for a while). but in this area its almost impossible to get a job without having a car- there's no other really reliable mode of transport. so mostly, its just so that i can get a job, and get out. I've tried concentrating on the "good" things hes done for so many years- but he'll never do anything good without some nasty backlash or underlying motive. ive learned that one the hard way too many times. everything "good" ive ever had, has either come from my mother or her family, and he's always been quick to take it off me and use it for himself. some people are just born with the destiny of being nasty, mean, cantankerous folk their whole lives & hes one of those people. I'm so glad my mother finally divorced him- since i was about 6 years old, I've been practically begging her to. Its just a shame that after 20-odd years of hell that he put her through, she gets absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRG7 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Nothing, considering I haven't spoken to him in almost a decade. Usually we'll have dinner or lunch or something with my brother, but he moved to Florida a couple of months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
