My Dad Stalks me Online

Aneeda72 said:
I try very hard to NOT say everyone or all of us or similar sayings, if I have I apologize. My father moved on when I was 17, when I was 18 he was married and had replacements for myself and my brother.

A few years later, he had a new family with 3 girls, 1 boy. Before me, two other marriages 1 girl each. So 5 marriages, 10 children, and there may have been more. I never missed him. I don’t miss seeing my mother, but I feel guilty for not doing so.

Oh I wasn't referring to this thread. I meant topics like mother's day, father's day, etc.

I don't like adding something negative to positive topics, but what gets me is when individuals say "EVERYBODY" misses their mothers/fathers/parents, or "WE ALL" do, etc. because it can cause some of us to really feel left out.

I thought of posting this, but my topics tend to get few if any replies:
First, find a creative outlet- some kind of art, music, writing, etc., and "let it all hang out."
Then, if you want to, share it with other people. It can help others as well as oneself.

Sorry JaniceM, I'm a bit confused by your post. Please elaborate if you wish to. If by my writings it has cause you some hurt I apologise. I was initially responding to Ronk. My life started off as it did and I don't hide it and sometimes when others read about other peoples struggles etc, it helps to put their lives in perspective and/or show empathy so they don't feel they are alone, and sometimes it can assist in opening up alternatives. Happy to respond to you should you wish to clarify.☺

I'm sorry for the confusion.. like I posted above, I wasn't referring to anything anyone said in this thread.. I was referring to topics like a mother's day thread where someone said "WE ALL miss our mothers," and similar threads about parents.

I was also suggesting writing is one of the many excellent creative outlets... and your posts are good examples of that!!!

Hello everyone. I was away for awhile. I do that sometimes when I'm depressed, or busy with some projects. Some people here apparently don't like me, and react negatively to threads like this one. It's easy to ignore someone you don't like. (hint);)
I'll never stop trying to reach out to my Dad. In his better times, my Dad has been my hero. Unfortunately time and distance keep us apart. Dad can no longer drive. I live in a small town, and there is no mass transit to travel between here and where Dad lives. These days Dad and I don't communicate a lot. I don't email him any more. Emails were always an "iffy" proposition for us. A better alternative for us is talking face to face. We had some great lunches for just that purpose. I've had an extremely difficult time lately.

It's good to see you all again. I've been in a mood for the ability to communicate like this...for awhile. It's late and I'm tired.:cool:
 
RadishRose, I went to bed a bit early, and woke at around 5 AM. I'm still a bit groggy. How are you today?!
