Ugh
I'm a little hurt at the moment. My Dad just called and said he just got back from the drag races which is something we always do together. He didn't tell me he was going and then when we were talking tonight he was like " Oh I almost called you to go last night but it was late, and I know I told you I was going." First off we hardly ever talk anymore because of his new girlfriend. He took new girlfriend with him and had bought tickets for her son and his friend. The son got in trouble so couldn't go and then he didn't call me to go. This was our thing that we did just the two of us and now he forgot me.
And next week I have to go be disposed for a car accident we had 3 years ago and he's all " well I don't think my lawyer will let me be there because he can't come" And I'm mad!!! I have to do this for him because we are being sued and I'm the only one who saw anything. I want him there. I know this is going to be super hard and I want my Daddy there.
Ugh I hate that my Mom is gone and that he is dating and that I'm feeling like I'm not important anymore.
Thanks for listening, I just had to get that out.
Re: Ugh
I'm sorry, hun. ::hugs::
Big hugs. I think you need to consider sitting down with your father and telling him exactly how you feel. Tell him that not being included in the race day hurts because it's something you always look forward to with him. Include in there (if it's true) that you'd be happy to include his new-gf and her family in the day, but want to maintain the tradition of you two going together.
And tell him about the court day too. Even if he can't be in the room, tell him you feel like you need support and see if perhaps he can drive you there, wait, and then maybe go to lunch together.
It's a sucky situation but I think it's probably important to address these things before they continue and before your disappointment in him grows.
Good luck!
I told him the majority of this last night but I was upset so E said I need to call him today and re-discuss. He was going to find out about waiting and meeting up with us after the court thing too. Getting used to sharing him with anyone but my Mom and brother is just so hard.
Thanks for the encouragement everyone.
