Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Are you sure though? Those spaniards dropped their seed all around Mexico...

Exact same way I feel about mine. Except if I ever see him again I will beat the ***out of him (I don't just want to, I'll act on it). I told him to never come back to Texas or try to contact my family (wife, son) again or I'll kill him. Of course I don't have plans to actually kill him, but putting him in the hospital with a few broken ribs or something is a definite possibility.

It really sucks because it plays hell with my mum emotionally, the way he treats me makes her feel like she has to be the caring one, that in turn makes them argue with her and he has such a bad case of little man syndrome he always has to be right about everything so he won't stop doing it, I see us on an inevitable collision course, but I really don't want to be that guy.

who has a good relationship with their father? mine isnt very good either lol

I guess I had an OK relationship with mine until he essentially disappeared like 3 months ago...

I don't know... my dad feels like he's right about everything too (though he won't admit it lol) and my mom was always the more compassionate one to us kids but she also saw why my dad did what he did... they've definitely had and do still have some issues but they seem to get along fine for the most part...

While Chuuu's statement is kinda general... it's also pretty true... I mean I've had times where I was really pissed off at my dad but all in all we have a pretty good relationship even though we still don't always see eye to eye on everything... I find, as a son, the relationship gets easier as you get older...

My Pop and I didn't really talk too much before I joined the Navy. After that... like irrational amounts of affection from my Dad.

I have an okay relationship with my dad. We almost never talked before my mom died but after that he changed. He used to be kind of a grumpy old man before that but now he's a lot nicer.

I guess I'm lucky in that respect.. My dad has basically alienated everyone in our entire family (and plenty who aren't) and has been banned from any contact with any of them. He has stolen, *** over, beat, and crazied his way onto everyone's ban list. He has no family anymore. Doesn't stop him from trying though.

My dad has the little man syndrome too though... For years he regularly beat my little brother, like breaking bones, put him through walls kinda beating, and this was when he was less than 10. He eventually lost custody of him because all this ***finally came to light.

He tried it on one of my other brothers after that brother had grown up and got bigger, much bigger.. He got punched in the face and choke slammed.

All I would like is for him to act like a father, starting with acting like a reasonable human being, but the guy is just a lost cause and the few people he has left in his life are all going to be gone for good soon. It's a shame, but only he can change it.

my mom is the best, shes really understanding and you can go to her for anything. she also likes to encourage you for what ever you are trying to do. my dad how ever is semi nice and i have to be nice since hes supporting me lol he gets drunk all the time and goes off into slurring words ranting and trying to lecture people, does lame stuff, thinks he is always right no matter what you say, wont let you give your own opinion. basically wants you to sit quietly and accept anything he says lol doesnt give my mom any affection, thinks males should work and women be in the kitchen or taking care of babies, really traditional and close minded for everything. /rantoff :P

I have a great relationship with my dad, we talk all the time, like the same music and always have a laugh.... except for about 2 hours ago when I wanted to him some serious harm... the family had gone to the nursing home to visit my gran, on the way out a naked 80 year old lass was walking towards us and he used me as a shield so he could run lol. He pushed me at her and left, so I had to deal with a naked old lass who kept asking me for a bag of chips, while he was outside having a smoke... the *** lol.

I wonder if there's a link between bad fathers and MMOs.. <.<

Yeh my dads on the same path, worrying thing is I don't care at all! Oh well I guess more care for other people in my life that are actually nice people :3

Well now you know to watch your back if you two end up together in the zombie apocalypse.

well since i dont like dealing with most people in my house i like mmos to have something to fill my time at home :P

i have a good relationship with my parents.

My dad is amazing and so is my mum.They both are so young at heart and would do anything for me and my family.We live pretty close and I see them most days.Hurray for awesome parents \o/

My dad was great when I was growing up. He always spent loads of time with me, helped me with my homework every day, read me bedtime stories and rocked me every night until I fell asleep.

It wasn't until I grew up and moved out and started developing my own opinions on religion and politics that I started having trouble with my dad. Now it feels like if I tell him what I really think or feel on things, he won't love me anymore. Like his love is only conditional.

My dad is an awesome guy, but we've been incommunicado (mostly on my part) for many years. I still feel bad about it, but never muster up enough guts to do anything about it. Something about passive shame is weird and paralyzes me from doing otherwise.

Doesn't help that I'm more or less an introverted shut in and keep to my own devices.

Mother.. now that's a different story, she lives... maybe a 10 min walk away from me, and I haven't seen her since Christmas. Its not that I hate her or anything, we just don't go out of our way to meet and talk, she's all happy with her new man, she know's where I am if she wants to see me lol.

My Step-Dad was a complete military straigh-laced all american sports dude when I was growing up. And was so traditional and backwards and not very smart, we all suffered under him for the longest ha ha. Then a few years before he passed away, he had a heartattack and his personality changed... and he was the coolest guy you could meet. Was nice and loving and (even though pretty senile) great and relaxing to spend time with.

I hate that, for all of us, it took him being humbled by something like sickness to find out that what matters in life most are the people in your family... cuz they're the only ones you sometimes really got.... but in the end... it all worked out.

So my advice to anyone strugglin with deadbeat a-hole Dads..... the universe has a way of humbling someone sometimes... and... the saddest part is that they all don't get the chance to make amends "fore they go," so, just realize this. But, I wouldn't take anyone's ***either. I had to buck up to my Dad and tell him off and show him the right way to be and there we times we stopped talking, but he always knew I was right. He knew his personality needed changing. I think he just came fromt that oldschool era and just din want to.

On a much cooler note.... W O R K I S N O W O V E R Y A Y

I dunno, it's evening out now but it seemed for a minute like everyone had a bad/troubled relationship with their father. <.< So I was curious.

It's bewildering that so many people have similar issues with their dad as I do, I mean the only silver lining I can take is that if I ever become a father I will know how not to treat my children, I honestly believe I won't turn into one of these people, but there seems to be many of them around so it's kinda worrying! I guess I must just always remind myself to be a good person. Or something!

For me I just want to make sure I don't stay with a guy that's like my dad lol would hate to make my kids have a bad father :/ I already feel bad for my niece cuz her dad is like mine just worse lol

Those who ignore the past are destined to repeat it.

If you try to say 'I could never be that guy' and then not work on not being that guy, there's a strong possibility you will become that guy. I pretty much have it in me to be exactly like my dad, but I work hard to not be him. It scares me that if I just let things run their natural course I probably would be him, but that fear also reminds me there's a reason I want to fight to not be him.

Spent the day hauling old fryers and ***from work to the scrap yard -,- too damn hot for that
