[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a normal relationship, the dad wouldn’t be abusive.[/quote]

Let’s say in a normal relationship the father did something that hurt his daughter’s feelings. She got mad at him, so she yelled and muttered swear words at him. She then avoided speaking to him. [b]What would a normal father do in this situation?[/b][/quote]

Those with a normal father can answer this.[/quote]

He would apologise. Or mine would tiptoe around me for a bit and then start talking to me normally as if everything is fine. As long as what he did wasn't horrendous, I'd accept the unspoken olive branch. We've exchanged fairly sharp words in the past, not swearing but definitely harsh, and been able to put it behind us and relate amicably.

What OP's father is doing is being chipper to show her that she is insignificant to him. Her attempt to speak to him was a "win" in his book and he knows that ignoring her hurts so he's twisting the knife by talking to other people. It is monstrously manipulative and OP needs a hell of a lot of therapy to recognise what's going on and learn to not need his approval.[/quote]
