I am a 35 year old woman, and my dad …

Comment on So you grew up with a dad who didn’t know how to express love? Here’s how it could be affecting you today (part 2) by Tasha.

I am a 35 year old woman, and my dad wasn’t abusive. He and my mother divorced when I was three. I saw him every other weekend and most holidays. To this day we go weeks and months without speaking. He doesn’t act like he cares at all….I have confronted him numerous times about not calling, visiting or inviting our family over….he apologizes and says there are no excuses for his behavior. I can tell my relationships suffer with other people because of our relationship. My heart breaks because he doesn’t get it….I just don’t understand why he doesn’t want a relationship with me or my children. I don’t feel like I should be the one constantly getting in touch with him….
