selectopaque answered Friday July 16 2004, 12:51 am: No. I don't think you should hate him. He doesn't even seem to be worth your hatred. But I do understand why you still want to see him even though he told you that. I met my father when I was 16, and I was really excited, despite the fact that he showed no interest in seeing me for the first 16 years of my life. I still had these dreams of having a happy mother and father... like a normal family I guess. But it didn't happen. I went to see my father and saw how much of a jerk he was and how I didn't want to know him. But I wasn't mean to him or rude to him. I didn't want him to have the pleasure of getting any kind of emotion out of me. Even if it was hate.
Go see your father if you want to. Be nice to him, don't let anything get to you. If he turns out to be as much of an ass as my father was, then it's only his loss to lose a great daughter. You still have your mother don't you? [ selectopaque's advice column | Ask selectopaque A Question ]
MissJ1414 answered Thursday July 15 2004, 9:15 pm: Well just be nice to him and pretend that it doesn't bother you. Tell him you love him anyways. But don't like force yourself around him if he doesn't want you there. I hope things get better. And your daddy prolly doesn't truely mean he hates you.

marksbitch answered Thursday July 15 2004, 8:42 pm: Some parents have a tough time expressing emotion when it comes to their children. Don't hate him for it though. You should see him again, but try writing him a letter so you can get all of your feelings on paper and give it to him. That way, you know you've said everything you're feeling. Then allow him to have a few minutes to get his thoughts together and see what he wants to say. If he isn't understanding, try family counseling. You're guidance counselor at school can provide you with a list of clinics in your area. [ marksbitch's advice column | Ask marksbitch A Question ]
Rockwell888 answered Thursday July 15 2004, 8:32 pm: My parents are also separated...and I, too, spend most of my time with my mother. If your dad doesn't love you, don't waste your time trying to talk 2 him. It's not worth it! That way you won't have to worry about what to tell him. =) Hope I helped!

iLjaG answered Thursday July 15 2004, 8:26 pm: Whoa, if he told you he never loved you and meant it, then you shouldnt give him the time of day. If he does not show you love, why then should you show him love? [ iLjaG's advice column | Ask iLjaG A Question ]
xokristabelle answered Thursday July 15 2004, 8:01 pm: Wow, that sucks. My dad lives in a town 30 minutes away with his (not married to him) mistress and bastard, so I know how you feel. You need to tell him what you told me- that you don't like it when he says that. If he makes fun of you, he's not worth it. I am so sorry you have to go through this. Is there a good counselor in you area? Many are free. I know it sounds really dumb, but I swear it helps. Bonne chance and hang in there!

sxyxbabii answered Thursday July 15 2004, 7:56 pm: aw.. im sorry!! i think that you should explain to him and your mom both that you've wanted to see him but are just a lil weary because he said that.. deep down inside he didnt mean that and he does love you! he must have just said that out of anger.. i think its great you want to see him again and you should! as for how to act, i know it would be a lil awkward but you should just be yourself around him, dont be a brat just be the nice person you are and everything will be fine!=D [ sxyxbabii's advice column | Ask sxyxbabii A Question ]

Lizzy answered Thursday July 15 2004, 7:23 pm: Dad's can be like that. Just ignore him for a while and pretend like whatever happened didn't happen and try to be as polite as possible, he is probably going through a stage where he just doesn't want to be around someone who doesn't chose him first

hErEtoheLp answered Thursday July 15 2004, 7:13 pm: One, your father more than likley regrets ever saying such cruel things to you. Don't hate him for it either, it would be like... in a sense doing what he did. In alot of cases after this, the problem might not get solved, because men, specially men who are older like your father, are too proud to admit when they've done something wrong, or said something they shouldn't have. So you wil have to be the one to take action adn try to win him back. It will be a slow slow process, but ultimatly in the end, worth it. [ hErEtoheLp's advice column | Ask hErEtoheLp A Question ]
