So as you know on TTG I post personal things on here it's a gateway of speaking to people; as I don't have many IRL friends and some of you are so kind and listen so I have to share!

My dad who I've seen once on 22nd September 2009 for the first time messaged me to see me, it makes me so sad that he didn't even know how old I was. He thought I was 20 when I'm actually 25.

I've always wanted a dad, but I feel now it's gone to long to even call him dad. I would like to start a relationship with my dad again and see him; but sadly he loves the drink more than his child.

I also have a half sister ( my dad has another child to a different woman) who he treats perfectly; always gives her money always goes to see her.. now that has me thinking what did I do to deserve this.

I'm just lost for words; this is a very happy time for me even if he's just talking just for the sake of things.. I've spoke to my dad and I'm happy.

Thank you for reading.

I'm sure it's no reason of your own that he's treating you differently. Don't think like that. You have gone 25 years without him so the best thing to do is to become super successful and make him regret not giving you the time of day; although I do not know you personally, I'm sure you deserved nothing of this manor.

I'm sorry to hear that your "father" hasn't been there for you.

I'd take it one baby step at a time, he might have changed over the years and learnt from his past mistakes. If you want to have a relationship with him, I'd go for it but at first; don't let your guard down just in case. Hopefully it'll work out in the end and everything will work out

It's all good, I'm 25 I'm a man now I'm not gonna let it effect me; I have a good job a alright car and caring girlfriend.

I've always been a very outcasted person; that's just who I am.. but I forgive and forget. If he wants to be there for me he can because it gets hard sometimes you know.

That's all you can do. If you let it play on you now you will lose focus of your own life

Sorry to hear that man

i mean i think you should do small steps at a time and gradually build that bond again and if you feel he's not putting that effort in to wanting to see you and make a relationship back with you after all those years then it's not worth the time but if he does then hey i mean it could be a great decision to keep him in ur life and i mean after all you only get one dad and it sucks that he's not been around but cherish every moment you get with him, good or bad.

i hope things turn out well bro, please feel free to pm me if you wanna talk or anything or need any advice and i'll do my best
