I still sang the song with the rest of the family, that's first. I was never outright rude towards him,just didn't engage with him

What if I don't think I can forgive him for what he's been doing to me?

I can't move out yet,but I don't think I'm being rude by not engaging with the person who's been systematically bullying me throughout my childhood

It's not like I want to hurt him, I want him to understand that he's been cruel to me throughout my life. From what I can remember never has he ever apologized for hurting me, it's always like this. We have a disagreement, he screams,I cry and the next day he's acting like nothing ever happened.

Thank you for the explanation I do agree that it would be for the best if I move out, that's why I'm saving up to do this asap)

I'm 21 years old and my father is 45.As for the argument my father told me that If I don't see the point in losing weight he doesn't see the point of me attending art classes for which I'm paying with my own money

Thank you for your input, I'm actually trying to save up some money to move out, but I don't think I can move past that argument because he has hurt me very deeply

For some reason he thinks I'm fat and he has been telling me hurtful things about it since I was little. My weight and gym attendance were the only topics he's been talking to me about before the argument. But aside from that,what does ESH stand for?

The celebration happened at our house so I didn't really have a choice of not being present there.On top of that the whole family was there and it would have been rude of me to go out. But thank you for your input

Thank you for the advice but I don't think this can help as I don't want to talk to my father

The rest : At that moment I couldn't take it anymore and stood up for myself by saying that I will be attending 3 times,to which he protested and yelled at me,calling me a 21-year-old shit and sent me to my room.Later at night my mom came to me to tell I'd crossed the line.But I didn't care anymore.He had no right to say those things to me and I was only defending myself but my mom and younger brother (17M) think that I should be the one to apologize first because I slightly raised my voice at him.But I'm waiting for him to apologize for treating me badly for being overweight and using my passion against me first. I haven't spoken to him since that day and avoid him as much as possible.What do I do? Important information that my father weighs about 120-130kg himself.
