Question Posted Wednesday January 31 2007, 7:23 pm
My dad and I don't have a good relationship. I only see him at family gatherings and we greet each other and say bye when the time comes and that's about it. He helped make my life difficult when I was younger and I don't approve of his actions. He never makes a move to talk or anything and he doesn't even call me on my birthday or anything. I want to make the relationship better though. Even though it's far away, I want him to walk me down the aisle and with the relationship we have now, it isn't going to happen in the future. I am at a loss with this one, so any advice is welcomed :)
if there's something i've learned in my life, it's that you can't change people. i've tried to change my dad practically my whole life (since i was six) and i've finally given up. you can't change someone unless they are willing to be changed.
do you believe in God? if you do, there's only one simple thing TO do, which is pray. that's all you can do & God will answer your prayer in his own time.
