Dads lives matter

My dad was like that. Always had a few small items in his garage that reminded him of his boys. They had no function, nothing pretty to look at, but were items that had a significant importance on our dad/son bonds.

Fuck, reminds me of my grandad, who was the only father figure I have had in my life.

He died exactly two years ago next Friday.

I remember when my grandmother brought me a large bag for my January birthday the next year after he died. In that bag was every single thing I'd ever given to him since I was a toddler. Random scraps of paper with barely legible writing on it, a toy I wanted to give him, birthday cards, school pictures, every. Single. Thing.

The older I got the less I got to see him, between high school, girlfriends, tech school and finally work. I wish I had spent more time with him as I got older. I guess I never realized he loved me like I was his own son. My grandmother told me he did. I suppose maybe he didn't feel it was his place to try and step in like a father, maybe my mother didn't let him. I don't know what it was, but it was nice to know even after he was gone.

No one should have to grow up without both parents, but especially a son shouldn't grow up without a father/father figure.

My mother did the same thing. I've gotten to know my dad and that side of the family as an adult. I understand wanting a new life but you do something when you destroy a father. You're telling a kid "half of who you are is bullshit" it isn't right.

This I can relate to. My parents had a horrible divorce when I was 6. Grew up having my mom in my ear talking a lot of shit about him making me believe my dad was an awful guy. It caused mine and his relationship to not be the best while I was growing up. Wasn’t until a few years ago when I found out the truth about a lot of it, and now me and him are closer than ever. It’s sad because I feel like this happens a lot and not every parent gets that lost time back with their child.

My mother attempted to manipulate me and my sister against my father as well.

I've had these moments too man. Hope you guys get to a point where you have a solid foundation for a relationship.

The real question is, why does dad have to start working again after all these years?

auberus · 2019-03-02T01:12:41+00:00

I went almost 15 years without speaking to my dad. The divorce was ugly. Now he's coming to see me. The last time we talked, he said that I'd always be his little girl. It legit made me cry. I wish I could get those 15 years back. Guess I'll just have to make up for it over the next 15.

I missed him so much.

My ex wife still to this day tries to poison my kids against me and they live with me full time, she hasn’t visited them in a yr but bet your ass when she calls it’s all about shit slinging about me...
