It Doesn't Work That Way

I cringe every year on my birthday because I know my father will send me some bullshit message.  This year it was, "I haven't given up on us."

Oh really!? "That's why you sent it in a Facebook message? That's why I only heard from you on my birthday?
Oh wait that's because you want a message from me on your birthday, the next day!

Get the fuck out of here !

He gives me the same, "I've really changed this time." Every 3 years and then does something super fucking selfish and just dumb.

The last time he told me he changed, 2 months later he got in a fist fight with my sister's 30 something year old boyfriend and promptly kicking them out.  What in the hell does a 50 year old have fighting a 30 year old.

This new "I've changed this time," came right after being a total dick to my mom! Her truck broke down, (which I honestly think he did something to it) and after he fixed it, refused to give it back to her.  Sat there and whined to everyone on how he was crippled sad.  Of course he doesn't tell anyone that he was berating my mother and screaming in her face because she "didn't touch him enough."

Yeah, I can totally see how he's changed.  *Insert giant eye roll here

Of course, now that he has gone to a few "counselor" meetings, he is all better now and everyone should come running to his side.

Not this time dad! You are selfish, you only text because you want praise.  You only want us around so you don't have to be held accountable for your actions.  You still haven't apologized for being a dick! You haven't changed! You say that as a way to get us to cater to you again.  You have to actually put in work to change.  When that happens, then MAYBE I'll come back around.  You have to earn the trust you lost!
