[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think what they may be trying to say is that your expectations of your dad seem to be a little over the top.  [/b]You didn't give his age but he sounds like he is not an emotional man, probably served in the military, is self-made and isn't inclined to show emotions.  Just my hunch.  And I don't see why he should pay for a wedding after you've had your first child out of wedlock - I didn't expect my parents to pay for any wedding, in or out of wedlock.  My father certainly didn't give my husband any kind of lecture about his expectations of him taking care of me (that would have been sexist, especiallys since I made more than my husband) and finally I suspect your dad is getting up in years and doesn't care about - or can't keep straight in his own head - all the facts about the land deal and expect you to run it if you want it.  I would.  That's the very least you could do since it's a gift.  [b]Your expectations of him just seem to be a little creepy and out of whack, [/b]which is what I think the others were trying to convey.  Time to grow up, take on the land deal, figure it out, thank your dad (wish my parents would give me some land) and forgive.  This may be the only way he knows how to say "I love you".[/quote]

Completely agree with the bolded parts.  I think that you need to try and work to transition your relationship to one of two adults.  You're acting as if you are still a child.[/quote]
