Originally posted by Malice Well, just spoke to my father for the first time in 9 years. He's coming to see me tomorrow. Takes surprisingly less time to drive up here than I thought. He wasn't angry like I feared, he said he misses and loves me and sounded like he was tearing up at times. That was surprisingly depressing, guess I'm more human than I thought.
I really wish you would record this meeting because I would love to see it. -

Originally posted by RestStop So I'm kinda watching this movie on Netflix but question. Why would demons just hang out in a particular/same house for decades on end? I mean don't they have other shit to do in the meantime? I realize their life span is basically infinite but still hanging around the same place for 50 years with nothing else around but other demons seems pretty boring.
What movie? I've always understood it to be that demons/ghosts are also out doing other things, or maybe don't experience time in the same way that we do. -

Ive seen my father twice in 30 years. He writes notes and stuff for birthdays and holidays... he wants me to tell him about my life and "what im doing". Im not sure he wants to know how difficult life was because he didnt man up. And I find it difficult enough to small talk with people whom i see on a regular basis...what do I discuss with a man who may as well be a stranger off the street, and whose most significant connection to me is genetic? *shrug*
Ill indulge him at some point. Im not an angry little boy anymore. But i think hes a pussy for the way he handled things. When my mom told him I was graduating HS, he said he didnt know if hed be able to get off work. Really? Your employer wont let you go to your kids graduation? I think hes getting older and he realizes the mistakes me made, and he wants to try to make amends before then but...i dunno. As a "man" now, I couldnt imagine letting my flesh and blood think that they didnt have a father.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Why wasn't your father in your life? What kind of person is he? -

Im probably just asking for shit by writing shit here but...*shrug*
As I understand it, he and my mother grew up in the same small town in TX. Went to the same schools. I think they probably dated on and off when they were younger. I think my mom had moved to CA in the mid 80's, and at some point he came down for a business trip and called her, they met up. He was from a wealthy oil family in TX, and Ive been told everyone around him always kissed his ass growing up. Hecould do no wrong...was a kind of "golden boy". So when my mom found out she was pregnant a few months later, she tried to get ahold of him and find a tactful way to tell him. He screened his calls, and eventually my mom started getting calls from his sisters and family members, telling my mom to fuck off and not ruin his life, and that she probably just got pregnant to try to squeeze money out of him. She wasn't some stupid woman. She was a professional with degrees, and worked for ad agencies, desgin firms, oil companies. So she was insulted they thought she was contacting him to try to work some angle. She didnt want to marry him. She had just divorced a couple years before. She just wanted to be responsible and let him know, give him a chance to have input.
Im not sure why she didnt have an abortion. From what Ive gathered, probably a confluence of factors- foremost being that she was in her early 30's when she had me, and probably started thinking she might not have another chance. That and the fact that she was from a heavily catholic family. Then there was the fact that in 1980's southern Texas, the only word worse than "single mother" was "abortion".
So...the short answer is he wasnt in my life because they were never married, and he never made it a priority to see me or have anything to do with me outside of birthday cards after i finally met him for the first time when was 13 or so. He married shortly after i was born, and had two other kids, and the wife hated my existence. Rather than telling her to fucking deal with it- that I was his son, and it wasn't my "fault" that this strained situation was in place, he chose to defer to her- just like he did his fucked up family years earlier. -

Sounds like an asshole. Don't worry though, my parents were married and it still turned out to be shit so hey at least there's that. -

2017-12-03 at 8:15 PM UTCWell, may be moving to Pomona CA today with my dad and attend Mt. San Antonio College later on, which doesn't seem bad. It's close enough and convenient. I'd also get a free bus pass, which is nice because I fucking hate driving.
CASPER, do you know anything about the area? Any recommendation for the best dispensary? I'm going to miss Purple Star. I've had serious sleep issues since I entered middle school and need a reserve of the chron to stave off insomnia and sleep deprivation. Better than being dependant on sleeping pills.
