I’m thinking about not contacting my dad and but yet I’m unsure. Around my mid teens my parents divorced and my dad changed. He’s started to be emotionally abusive toward me and my sisters. He lies to me, makes me cry, and scares me. I didn’t have a choice during that age. I only stay and endure his behavior to us was because of my grandmother due to her being lonely after my grandfather’s death. During my young adult year, my dad wanted to marry my stepmother at Hawaii. He didn’t give me a choice not to go it was a force. He didn’t really spend time with me and my sisters there, only for a day though. That got me thinking about leaving him for good and I did. But after few months, I came back. I kinda regret coming back three years ago. He never spends time with me and my sisters. He just gives us money to do whatever we want, nothing more! Which I hate, I don’t want any of it. All I want is an actual relationship with emotional connection. He was never emotionally there for me. He never really spends time with us. I hate going to the movies with him because he usually leaves me and sisters while he does stuff, it made me hate the movie: I.F because of the dad in the movie was really good and cried(worse part was he played by Jim from the office and he’a my favorite character) I want to ask but I didn’t want to bother him. I do these theater productions as an actress he offers to drive me to rehearsal but I think he only did because my mom told him to. In Father's Day 2026, we went to Dave and busters he just give us arcade card and just let us do whatever we while he and my stepmother drink at the bar. She is very supportive and always there for me. I don’t even know my dad and he doesn’t know me. Me and him don’t even tried. So what’s the point of still talking. It’s very awkward and quick conversations. Even since after Father’s Day, I’ve just been give very short text messages(no full sentences). He keeps treating me like I’m a child, I don’t know if it’s because of my disability or something else. So I’m thinking about cutting ties with him and never go back to him for real this time, I’m unsure.

Hi! I’m thinking about not contacting my dad and but yet I’m unsure. Around my mid teens my parents divorced and my dad changed. He’s started to be emotionally abusive toward me and my sisters.

I do these theater productions as an actress he offers to drive me to rehearsal but I think he only did because my mom told him to.

A shy person gives me her phone number on paper a week ago after my theater production and only hangs out but doesn't say anything. What’s the point of being friend? I didn't even want her number or interest becoming her friend im thinking of not texting her.
