Just married
Sorry for the rambly diary entry below…
I just got married to the love of my life in a small, intimate, micro wedding. Immediate family and our two best friends.
My father wasnt invited, and to be quite honest has no idea I was even engaged.
He responds when I message him with an emergency- when I was in an abusive relationship and was stranded overseas.
When I was recovering from emergency surgery due to life threatening internal bleeding.
He doesn’t reach out, doesn’t call. Doesn’t visit. Im not even sure he knows my husbands name.
It was the right choice not telling him, not inviting him… but it still feels like a hollow win.
He’s still my father. And as far as I can tell an incredible father to my half brothers.
But he hasn’t tried with me since I was 14 years old and Im now 30.
Guess I’m just looking for some understanding in this conflicting state
