I cannot count the fucked up things he has done to me because of his drug addiction. But, right now, at his moment, my father and I have a great relationship. He was part of the reason I stopped doing heroin. You have to forgive and forget. You have to. Or you will never be fulfilled as an entity.

I know you can't change the past, but at least you made an effort in your part. I am sorry Jenn. I know you can’t change the past, but at least you made an effort in your part.

He rarely sent child support or even birthday cards. Now that my husband is older though, my father-in-law realized that he messed up. He calls more now and he has apologized to my hubby over and over. It's really sad... My husband’s father wasn’t very involved in his life either. He rarely sent child support or even birthday cards.

I mean I know that thousands of girls go through this, but thank god for the lucky little girls like ours that have a better dad who is there for them. I was complaining about my mom on an occasion when she wasn't emotionally there for me. My aunt told me that I was an adult and that I needed to get to the place where I just wasn't expecting anything from her. Yeah, it hurts that I don't have someone to talk about the things a mother and daughter talk about together, but by not expecting anything from her and not even telling her things it doesn't weigh on me emotionally anymore. Maybe if you don't expect anything from him and believe that he's just not mentally/physically/emotionally capable of giving it to you he'll surprise you one day. Aww that is so sad.
