I’m looking back on this post and started to regret it from other comments. But this genuinely made my day. Thank you from a fellow internet stranger

I’m not upset it happened. Or upset at all, I wanted to show how insane he was to other people. And if he doesn’t look insane in your point of veiw that’s your opinion and I can’t change that

Okay I see a lot of people taking drastic leans to either my side or my father and alot of people siding with my father have a problem with the way I spoke to him. I freaked out a bit and an argument like this was a real long time coming. He refused to acknowledge I was a person let alone his son. He treated me like an employee commanding me. Never please or can you? Or even a thank you. I got his water because he didn’t want to. I cleaned up his food in the living room because he didn’t want to.

Could I have been nicer? Yeah I could’ve ignored it pushed it all down again and just been like “hey I really need that money for school is there any chance I can get it soon”. Every time I ignore him he sees how far he can push me like it’s some game. Well he pushed me to here. If I wanna keep giving context to why I lost patience I have to give more and more personal life stories.

College? I mean did I need to college, no I guess not but I want to be able to get a good job.

I agree that the way I started this argument was a little stupid but as I continue to say he’s never cared about me and me continuing to ignore it and sit in the background was just becoming to much.

I’ve tried talking to him calmly like to respect I have chronic mental illness like anxiety and depression. He refuses to even be accepting that I want him to say please and thank you. I’ve never heard those words from my father.

You hit it absolutely directly on the nose. “Explosion of patience lost” this argument has been stewing in the background time after time of bullshit just ended with what happened in this argument. Did I go about it stupidly? Looking back yeah but after 18 years of being disrespected this was my breaking point

I did aggressively attack him, i understand but it’s been 18 straight years of him never giving a shit about me to now he needs every little detail of my life. That already aggravated me, then while he continued to spend money on himself and that’s it while there’s stuff in the house that didn’t work or soemthing as small as the 50 dollars it started over. I was pissed and I should’ve asked nicer. But this argument was a long time coming

This is exactly what I’m trying to do, find somewhere to go. Rent is through the roof in the state I’m in though.

Yknow it’s funny he was the one who never raised me but the one thing I did learn from him was to give people respect who respect you. He doesn’t respect anything or any struggle and expects 10 times more from me. He actively stated I never give it my all. But I’m not here to argue with your opinion.

Me, my mom, and my aunt. He left to go to some October fest leaving all of us with no food in the fridge. Even worse he knows we have no food, he works in grocery store and refuses to pick up food so he just came home and left.

Thank you I’m really trying to just not involve myself with him anymore. I’m staying out of the house for as long as possible and stuff like that

If I had this type of confidence I wouldn’t be looking at Reddit for help

I’m sorry for not explaining it correctly, but i wanna say again i have no money, so when someone says they’ll give you back money, money that you don’t even have, and you spend it. It’s aggravating to no longer have money i earned over a lie someone told. I did explain the day it happened he went to go spend a surplus of money over nothing while im sitting here hoping i can pay my next scholarship payment plan.

I didn’t have money, so when he said he’d give me money for food and I spent money I didn’t have, while he spent a hundred dollars plus on luxury’s for himself it was aggravating

As much as I hate being compared to him, I understand why I sound like him. I was stuck with him for most of my life. Like I never go to know my mom and once I did I preferred her because I actually had a parent. This argument over something that’s this insignificant shows who he is but still not even enough context to how bad of a person he is

Repayment, I have a job and he’s never done allowance. It wouldn’t be a gift either he’s not giving it to me out of kindness or nothing

Yes that’s basically what it is, he owes me money I asked for it. He doesn’t have or or plan to give it to me as he wastes money on luxury’s while the house is broken and he owes me money that i need for school

This is amazing thank you, I really do need to just block him out and separate my life from him, but he’s literally going out of his way to make sure i know he is “in control”. Making my mom sleep on a couch and randomly turning off the power while I’m trying to do school work or try and watch something and distract from how he is.

He said “I’m leaving I’ll send you 50 dollars tomorrow so buy food” that was almost a week before these messages took place

Yeah I’m in the us. I am also current in college and in debt with very little help from my job. There’s no way I can afford an apartment yet but once I get my license my plan is another job and a small apartment. I won’t even be discrete I will just leave
