Lame Question...

Have you ever had a parent or parents ignore you for really no reason at all? And almost cut you out of their life?

 

Um....sort of.
I grew up feeling like I was being kept just for show, but not really wanted.
Things are better now.

Are you ok?

 

i can definately relate to that

 

yeah im okay, i went to my parents on monday, everyone ignorned me...i call, they dont answer or just hang up on me...I just called my mom and she answered and just totally hung up on me sorta of twilight zonish...dont really understand...

 

vegi.vegi.vegi.vegi

po-ta-to

 

that was so lame.

 

wasnt it though...

 

Aww...shroomy...your parents are jerkoffs.

 

getting old...

 

yes they are
but so are hundreds of others

i guess i can tell the home that they are to have no windows..harhar

 

And they can watch BINGO, but not play...

 

My parents spend a lot of time with my brother after he had children. Granted he had a lot of things going on and he needed their support so they were there for him. I got married, had children, expected them to be there for me to but they weren't. They would go weeks without calling. Not return my messages. It hurt really bad.

I moved an hour away and I guess they used that as an excuse but I did contront them about it two years ago. My Dad ended up yelling at me on the phone and we had a huge fight. After that I never made an issues out of not seeing them.

I see them rarely but once in a while my Mom and I go shopping.

Would you be willing to confront them about it? You don't deserve to be treated this way from anyone, especially your Mom & Dad.

Big hugs to you Mystical.

 

Im sorry Peanuts, that sorta sounds like the situation im in be without being married or children part...

Ive wanted to confront them but when ever i try thats when they ignore me..
My mom only use to call me when my siblings would treat her bad just so she could get sympathy from me..she never visits, ive been moved out for almost 6 years and in that six years she has visited me once, when i first moved out.. i live like 15 minutes away she wouldnt even drop off groceries to my house when i had surgery and the store was a few blocks down, i had to have someone go get them and then she called me and said i forgot to pay her for them
its just a crazy sitution...i usually dont say anything about it cause it just makes things worse..but i think im just going to stay away from all that family drama and worry about myself...and maybe go hunt for that actor that played Elvis..haha

 

My dad ignores me and he never answers his phone when I call or go to see him he leaves and i unno its weird.

 

Did you watch Elvis last night? I watched it. My husband was funny. He couldn't figure out why I wanted to watch it. I told him I was talking about it with you and thought I might like to watch it.

I didn't know he had an affair like he did with Ann Margaret.

I'm sorry to hear this is going on with your parents. If you can't confront them about it then I would just try and find a way to come to terms with it. That is what I have done and it has helped me. My parents have issues of their own (we all do in one way or another). I justify their issues with them not having a whole lot of contact with me or the way they might treat me or each other for that matter.

Take care of YOU. I know that is easier said than done because it is your family and they are supposed to love you no matter what. It's a hard situation to be in.

 

yeah.... my dad and I don't talk very much. He doesn't ahve a land line and I'm only supposed to call his cell in case of emergency, so he only calls when he's at my grandma's house, and I'm never home when he's not working. He's engaged, but he's never told me where (my mom had to tell me, it's planned for Cuba) and the when, well... that passed by a while ago but they aren't married yet (since my mom and dad are still legally married)

He'll always be my dad, but we haven't been close for years now. It sucks.

 

my dad does that to my brother. I hate it. it makes my brother hate me because my dad always favored me over him. He treated him like that for no reason at all. It was a huge issue before my parents got divorced.

 

seriously, you are really annoying me...you have tons of threads you can go do that in..

 

im shocked, you actually posted a word..

 

ya know you should really pick a personality and stick with it.. if you want to be a jerk and whore up a thread where im trying to be serious, then go for it champ..
