see my dad

I can relate to anyone who hasnt seen there dad in years or has not really any memories. I really miss my dad and I know people in the world, if they dont have one or dont see them, are feeling the same way.

just recently i got in touch with my two sisters and i was told that my father has been looking for me for the past five years. i amnow writing him a letter and im not quite sure what to say and how to go about addressing him.

i am 12 years old and i havent seen my dad for over 3 months .i go up his mothers every christmas day but i dont want to go this year because if i see him i will start to cry .he hasnt rang to say can he speak to me or nothing .I DO WANT TO SPEAKTO HIM JUST IN SMALL SEEINGS !

My Dad and I used to do everything together (when he was straight and off of pain-killers) and now he’s in jail and I’m living with my Aunt. I’m not allowed to see him and the only time that I can is at jail for an hour. (and you can’t even give them a hug there) When I’m 18 years old and able to see him legally and freely I pray that he will have gotten help for himself so we can go driving in the country late at night blabbing all of our life-philosophies to each other.

So, I saw my dad last week, and I am glad I did. It went much better than I thought it would. My sisters and I met him for dinner, and he met my boyfriend, who he pretty much ignored throughout dinner. I’m not exactly sure what that means, but at least everyone was civil. I am going to try to keep in touch with him better from now on.

Okay, so I actually called him, and all is cool. He refuses to acknowledge that I live with my boyfriend on purpose, and wants to make sure I never drive a car. We will have dinner together in a couple of weeks, when I am visiting my mom in KY.

I have to call my dad today to let him know the time and place when I will be in town, and can see him. I dread it, because after I sent him a long email about how my life is going last week, he did not write back. I don’t know if he is mad at me or what. Hopefully, he just hasn’t checked his email.

I wrote my dad a REAL email, with information about my life and such, and told him that I would be in town next month and I’d like to see him and stuff. See… I can be a good daughter.

I convinced two of my sisters to go with me to see the dad in September. It wasn’t hard – I told them my bf would be coming, and they wanted to see the show, lol. The thing about my dad is, he’s pretty unpredictable. He may embrace my beau with open arms, or he may grill him. He may even decide to make the meeting a contest of strength.

The age difference is the glaring factor that worries me, but with my dad, it may not be an issue. He may not even notice him if he’s on some rant about the police, or Hiroshima, or racism, or abortion, or something else controversial that he has a lot of convoluted opinions on. Wait a minute… idea hatching… coming into full view…

Hmmm… get my dad to start talking… doesn’t notice boyfriend at all… can’t accuse me of not making him a part of my life despite his strongly enforced proclamation that he shall never lift a single finger to be a part of mine as long as I live… we sneak quietly out the back door while he’s monologuing about the pros and cons of capital punishment… checking for loopholes…

Well! Sounds like a plan to me! Let’s get this show on the road.

I should visit him next time I am in my home town. He’s going to meet my bf, and that’s going to be loads of fun. At least I haven’t gotten a tattoo.
