I was 13, when I saw my dad for the last time. He picked me up to go to the cinema, but just when we were about to leave he went and talked to my mom. He told her everything i ever told him about my mom. Back then we used to fight a lot and had other problems and I thought talking to somebody I could trust would help. Well he never helped me, only betrayed me. After that he didn't text for a while, except for Christmas or birthdays. A year later he asked me how I'm doing and that he missed me. I was angry because he ignored me for a whole year.Thats also what I texted him back, got no response that. Now he's reaching out again, but blamed me because I probably said things that I did not want but never apologize for ignoring me for 2 years now. I have siblings that live with my dad that I haven't seen since then too. Last week he reached out again, without an apology ofc. Should I forgive him now? He has hurt me so much in so many ways. But now I feel bad. But I just think it's to late now.

You shouldnt feel bad, its the fact that you trusted him with such information regarding your feelings about something really sensitive, yet he went ahead and shared it without asking. i totally understand how you feel</3

the fact that he ignored you even when he reached out first makes it even worse. no need to feel guilty. him acknowledging you a few times won't ever make up for the times he disregarded how you actually felt. 

forgive him. because it's unfair that he goes on living his life normally, and texts you when hes ready without saying sorry. You don't need to hold on to something so heavy and hurt yourself even more by trying to carry it's burden. you can forgive him but never forget the lesson he taught you. i hope you stay strong and never let his thoughtlessness weigh you down, because You deserve an apology, not guilt. 

if i'm being honest based off what i read your honestly the sweetest and did the best you could with the love you had. all i need is for you to protect the love you have left for yourself. 🩷🌸


hope this helped </3

remember to stay safe and hydrated ^^
