Posted this 12 hours ago still no comments from my DAD

[Anonymous]

That fact that children have to almost beg for support makes me sad. The fact that your father didn’t respond immediately makes me sad. I wonder if it’s better to say I have a girlfriend now, please treat her respectfully. Maybe it’s not that easy.

I personally told my parents I have a boyfriend, instead of letting them find out on social media. Then I--gasp--introduced him. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned though.

No. I didn't announce it on Facebook, either.

I actually introduced them to boyfriends face to face... or phoned.

Any chance it was the declaring "I know most of my family don’t like things like this" part that he might feel upset about.

Posted where? Which post office, because sometimes ours doesn't get delivered for days, or the postal worker takes it to the neighbor's house instead.

Maybe you should just talk to him?

You are young. You have a lot to learn. Call your dad and have a conversation.

What makes me sad is that you and the OP are emotionally retarded.

1. He hasn’t seen it yet.

2. He’s upset about your orientation.

3. He’s upset that you made it public.

4. He’s upset that you announced to everyone without telling him first.

5. He’s upset that you took a giant dig at him and the rest of the family in your post.


In short OP, bad form. My teens know not to do this.

Maybe he hasn’t seen it yet? Or glanced and thought it meant Faith (as in have faith)? Call your Dad I’m sure he adores you. Perhaps he doesn’t know what to say or wants to say the right thing… the truth is as grownups we are still quite clueless at life ourselves. I hope you have a loving outcome.
