Daddy issues , feeling left behind?

No you shouldn't waste you life being angry for something someone else did, especially when you have control over it. Find someone you can talk about it with or a counselor. Don't spend your precious time being angry

Well you see how hard it is to get along with your mother? THAT'S what your dad was going through. Your mom drove him off.

Why don't you get in communication with your dad and tell him how you feel? Anyone who tells you you're "stupid" about your feelings is pretty stupid themselves. People feel the way they feel and you lost someone you love. Your emotions are valid.

So once you've accepted that your emotions are valid, there is no reason to feel bad for having them, your next step is going to him with them. Be honest, don't be pisssed, just tell him that you want to have a relationship with him, that you need him in your life. Scrrew talking to all the idiots.

You have no reason to be angry with yourself for being sad. It's a perfectly normal response to the situation. Just understand that you did nothing to wrong and that it's your fathers fault that you are sad.

I can totally understand your feelings, I've been there, done that. Have you thought about writing to your dad? That's what I finally did and it brought my dad and I closer through the years. He may have feelings of guilt over leaving and it's to bad but you may have to take the first step. At the very least you would know that you tried to improve the relationship with him.

I feel for you because my father died when I was five and your not being stupid at all. I think you have every right to feel the way you do. Don't be angry with yourself, be angry at your father and tell him how you feel.

its not your fault. no u cant be angry with yourself, but you have every right to be mad at your dad
