I didn't realize this until I was older, but I've really missed out on having fun. While I was growing up, both my parents were alcoholics, so I never had genuine fun. I've picked up some nasty habitual rules (Don't talk, trust, or feel), and I'm working hard in therapy to overcome this. What are ways to let loose and let myself have fun. Any references would be awesome

I'm 16 and my mom died when I was 14.My dad started dating immediately despite what my sister and I said. Now, 2 years later he is in a serious relationship with this woman whom I cannot stand. Shes completely changed my dad. She is rude to my sister and me and inconsiderate. Whenever we tell our dad about this, he tells us to quit making up lies.

Whenever shes over, I don't say much to her, because I don't have anything nice to say. My dad gets very angry when I don't say "Hi" to her and will threaten to kick me out or kick my ***. He said he raised me better than that.

But last night, when he was asleep, I stole his phone because I needed to send a picture of myself to a friend, I couldn't use mine because the camera doesn't work. I had no intention to search through it because honestly I could care less. Anyway I took the picture and went to the photo gallery. In the photo gallery there was an... indecent picture of him and I was freaked out. So I went his text messages to see who he was sending this to. Instead of it being his girlfriend, he's been sending it to his ex girlfriend. She has also been sending indecent pictures of herself to him. They've been calling each other babe, and sweetie. Now, I don't know if they're sleeping together but I have a feeling this is some form of cheating. To make everything even worse, I've found some cards my dad's current girlfriend has sent him saying shes fallen in love with him etc... along with a recent card from his ex saying she had a good time last weekend...

Now, I cannot stand his girlfriend but it feels wrong to let my dad do this to her. I feel angry at my dad because he's saying he raised me better than that, while he is cheating on his girlfriend. I don't know if I should confront him about this because I know I'd be in big trouble because he'd know that I had gone through his phone. But if I keep quiet, it'd eat me up inside and his girlfriend will get her heart broken, and she's the revenge type. And if I tell her, she'd be heart broken, and my dad would be super mad at me... What should I do

I'm 16 years old and it's just my dad and me. My mom died when I was 14 due to problems with alcohol. Within 2 months of her death, he started dating again. It bothered me that it was so easy for him to get back out there and date again, but he assured me that he's not looking for a serious relationship, and his dates were more like "flings". It didn't bother me as much. He went out more and more, and I was left home alone, a lot. I started to feel lonely but my dad seemed happy so I put up with it. Around early December, last year he dated this girl, that liked him a lot. Eventually he broke up with her because she wanted a serious relationship and he didn't want that. I felt better about where I stood with him.

Towards the end of that month he found a new girl, whose name is Dana. She has a son named Daniel who goes to my school, I didn't really know him. I promised my dad I'd be on my best behavior and not be rude (he knows I don't like that he's dating). We all went to see a movie and nothing happens. When I met her I knew I didn't like her, she was loud, obnoxious, the complete opposite of me and I was worried we wouldn't get along. Weeks went by and they still hadn't broken up and I was starting to worry, he promised me he's not looking for a serious relationship, yet here he was, in a serious relationship. I confronted him about it and he said "Well I changed my mind, I like her a lot." I got angry that he just suddenly changed his mind and started yelling, we go into a fight and he left for the night, to be with her. Now everytime we get into an argument he'll just leave and stay with her. It's gotten to the point where they stay the night with eachother at least twice a week.

Things just kept getting worse and worse for me. I decided to open up to my dad about how I was feeling about this, I was really nervous because I've never been the one to show my feelings, especially to my dad. I told him everything I was feeling and how I feel neglected. Instead of taking what I said to heart, we just got into another fight. I don't really remember all the things he said but I do know he did say "I hated your mom for what she did to us!" (drinking) and he also said "Dana's been more of a mom to you than your mom ever was, and would have ever been!" This pissed me off and we got into a huge fight, he left for the night.

To this day, they are still dating, and both Dana and Daniel are aware I don't like them in my life, like that. Don't get me wrong I don't hate them for who they are, I just don't like the relationship they have with my dad. I get this feeling they expect me to like them because Daniel is okay with everything, but it's different for him. His dad is alive and he seem his dad just as much as he sees his mom, plus they got a divorce 10 years ago.

Am I wrong to hate her? Does anyone have any real advice to what I can do? Talking hasn't worked..
