I Am Upset

I had a slight fall out today with my dad, nothing serious. It's just one of those situations when he put his foot down and wanted something done, and wasnt taking "No" for an answer. He has been asking me for weeks, but there was something i needed bought first to do the job properly, and i would certainly feel more motivated and dedicated in getting it done, (its like using the right tools)..and i wanted to explain why it would help me??..But he stormed out, saying that i always put barriers in the way of everything, that im always thinking negatively!!...I'm honestly not, he just wants things always done his way, and nothing else!!!!!..he didnt even let me explain??..i know its a small situation but if he cant listen when im being genuine, it can cause a fallout :(

This is were i feel emotional, cause i am very sensitive!!. Because hes so controlling at times, with how i do things, then gets angry. I was very quiet, and upset, avoiding eye contact, and replying in short mutters. I can't instantly spring out with joy, and change everything i feel about him...i continued to feel down all day..roughly 3 hrs later..he sat on my bed, saying

"Please atleast look at me", "I never want to see any of my children unhappy" "it's heart breaking to see you can't atleast look at me" ..talk to me??".....and at that moment as i had a grudge because we just had a fall out, what he said was in one ear and out the other. Then i could see how desperatley hard he was trying when he offered to take me out on a pleasant drive somewhere i liked, and get some food on the way maybe??....But i just wasn't in the mood, i cant flip over and just act like nothing happened earlier..i said no.....But see when he left alone, and upset in the car,...i felt soo very sorry for him, i was actually in tears

Honey, you only get one true dad. My father wasn't my real father, but in every way it counted he was my Dad. You may disagree, but you love each other. Love him enough to not let a silly argument damage your relationship. He's never going to stop telling you how to do somethings, and believe me when I tell you when he's not around to give you his opinion, you're going to miss it. Hug him extra tight the next time you see him. Good luck, Kiddo. It's hard for dads to let their little girls grow up!!
