I Hate My Dad

My aunts and uncle from my dad's side who keep in touch with him have been saying he's been asking about me lately. They say he even seems interested in meeting me. I've never met my dad and I don't want to. He abandoned my mom after learning she was pregnant with me and when she refused to get me aborted after he tried convincing her to do so. He went as far as to flee the state and has never came back. After seeing how badly my mom struggled throughout my childhood just to raise me, I will never forgive him for what he left us both to endure. I don't care how much he may regret it now, if at all, I want nothing to do with him. If I'm ever to meet him, it would just be tell him how much of a coward and a garbage human being he is for abandoning me and my mom. But even that would just be a waste of breath. I would much rather he just stay away from me and keep living the life he fled to.

You all can take my dad's side and tell me I'm wrong on a situation you know nothing about all you like, but my attitude toward him is completely justified and no guilt-tripping spiel you may have will change that, so spare me.

@rckt148 [quote]How you feel is legit but[/quote]
"But" nothing. Either I'm right to feel the way I do or I'm not. Which is it?

@PerchingDove Feelings are not really right nor wrong, but you have no obligation to him it's your life to live.
He might be very sorry, but his choices have conquenses and no one should guilt you into doing something you don't wish to.
Hate can posion your life,however,and I hope that doesn't happen to you.

@updown2020 My kids I hear hated me too
but when the only people who knew the truth was their Grandma and their Mom ..there was no one to tell them thats not how it happened ,
But now my girls and I are very close and my ex and I have put all that behind us ,
We get to be around our grandkids, together, and all is cool
My first wife and I got to watch our Grandson graduate high school last weekend ,and our oldest Granddaughter get married the weekend before ,,
I am thankful I found my kids ,,and all that pain is behind us
My ex's 4th husband and I actually get along well too
My kids went through a lot in those 12 yrs
I don't blame them for hating me
had it happened like their Mom said ,I would hate me too
but I did kidnap her ,,I don't blame her for hating me either ,,we both had a lot to forgive
I am glad all of us were able to and just be there for our family

Because I am right, you assholes. It’s you who doesn’t want to hear it for whatever reason. Whether you’re just dense or you support a man abandoning his family and responsibilities, I don’t know, but you can hypothesize and theorize all you like, I know that I know the truth and you’ll never be right.
