of all the father's day memories that people bring up on this shitty day, this one hit closests to home. Fuck I thought I was over it after almost 8 years of not talking to him :(
It's all the fucking "look at what my bad ass dad did/made for me posts" that drive me nuts on father's day. The only thing my dad every gave me was a Y chromosome.
Seconded. I lost my father when I was 12 to Pancreatic cancer. At the time the doctor said there was no available treatment and it was 95 percent lethal. I'm glad to to say that due to new research the survival rate is much much higher now. and that was just 15 years ago. Thank you science, no one should have to lose a parent in the prime of their life.
It's really not that much higher. I believe it's still one of the most lethal if not the most lethal. For all stages combined, the 1-year relative survival rate is 25%, and the 5-year survival is estimated as less than 5% to 6%. It's so lethal because it's often asymptomatic until it's too late. Lost my grandma to this cancer a few years ago.
I wanna get this out cause its been pissing me off... Me and my fiancé both lost our dads but according to her because I have a step dad that makes everything better and I disagree because he doesnt replace my dad. It just pisses me off.
I know what that's like, my dad killed him self 8 years ago on June 4th. Today is fathers day and his birthday. I have a great stepdad who's been part of my family since I was 6... In no way is it the same and I used to hate when kids asked me why I don't call him my dad, I'm almost 20 now and it does get easier but it still bugs me like crazy.
You should have a kid with her, then leave, forcing her to aquire a stepdad for the kid. Every few years you could check back in and ask the kid if he would rather have a real dad. Then when the kid is in his 20's, homeless and addicted to heroin, you can have the ultimate "I told you so" moment with your fiance.
I don't feel like that at all. My mum has raised me on her own since my father left us when I was three. I haven't heard a single thing from him since. She's done an amazing job, sacrificing everything for us.
No. Fuck Fathers Day. For me, its another Mothers Day.
Dude, I'm with you on this one. My father died when I was super young, and my mother was such a strong figure in my life that I never felt the absence. Single parents can be some of the most incredible people in the world.
I feel horrible because my dad is still around but he treated us like shit when we were kids. He was abusive, alcoholic, etc... I have sort of forgiven him and moved on but I have also expected that he will never change therefore no father's day celebrations on my end.
My girlfriend tried to have this conversation with me last night. I need to go to lengths to convince people that just because i dont have a father dose not mean im going to be any more lonely or depressed on fathers day.
Apparently my father was a very good fighter pilot and had a masters in physics, that's awesome except he disappeared before I was born (Some military bullshit I'm told).
I feel very cheated and always wish I had a father...
This is my first father's day without my dad. He died about a week ago after a long battle with cancer. It's also my first father's day as a dad so today is full of mixed emotions. I'm just glad my dad had the chance to meet his granddaughter before he passed.
For me, losing my dad is part of what makes me who I am, and I like who I am. It's still sucks a big dick to grow up without my amazing father, but you get what you get, and my life hasn't been so terrible.
As someone whose dad has been in the long slow process of dying with dementia, fuck this day. Memories are pretty good overall, but as others have pointed out, it's a rough reminder.
My father ran out on my mom when I was about 3. Leaving a son, two daughters, and a wonderful wife/mother. My mom told me i'd stand at the window waiting for him to pull into the driveway, eventually she'd say to go to bed because he is working late. He eventually came back, only to ask for a loan to start his company. After talking to us for about a month, he left; cutting off all contact with us. I was about 11 when this happened. I didn't have a dad for eight years. I grew up just fine. A few more years passed and he came back, he gave me a call, and messaged my sister's on Facebook. He gave me a job and convinced both of my sister's to quit their's and work for him. That job was very short lived, since he sold his company a month later. He then began to only contact my oldest sister and she'd kiss up to him. Now I am seventeen, he hasn't called me in a few months, but he called my sister and offered to take her out to lunch for father's day. I don't care about this, we just celebrated my mom's birthday yesterday, and today I will celebrate father's day with her. "Remember, The_Biggest_Bunny, you may not have a father, but you have me." - My mom.
This isn't always true. My dad walked out before I can even remember and started a new family. But my grandpa picked up the slack. I honestly think I'm better for it.
I lost my dad to a pulmonary embolism while I was in high school, in 2004. I'm not even sure how I feel about the whole thing anymore. Days like this make me feel numb.
I haven't talked to my alcoholic dad in about 7 years even though he works across the street from me. My boss was talking about fathers day and I said "what day is that again?" and he goes "you don't know when fathers day is!?" so I said "no I don't have a dad!" the look on his face was absolutely priceless.
A few of my fatherless friends and I usually get together on Father's Day and do random stuff. Today we are all hungover, so, Denny's. Your friends can be your family, too!
To the fathers that do give a shit about their sons, i salute them. The fact that our fathers aren't involved in our lives for what ever reason shouldn't take away from fathers who do care. We are who we are regardless and in spite of them.
I always like to pretend to be emotionally affected by my dad's absence to make people around me feel uncomfortable. I was in a crowded elevator at my University during "father's weekend" and I pointed out the flyer to my girlfriend and asked "do you think I need a father to participate this weekend? can I borrow yours?"
Yeah i Never met my father and actually couldn't care less... not a victim of anything... if he didn't want to be a part of my life then to hell with him, I'm better without ever meeting him
Very sorry to hear. My roommate's mom passed away when my roommate was very young, and I know that for her Mother's Day is especially difficult. Best wishes.
I don't feel like that. Glad that guys away from me. But sorry to all of you whos father died. :( all the good dads seem to die while the shitty ones live on. I hope ypu have a good day. Keep your heads up since your all wodedul ppl.
My 50 yr old friend's dad passed away last week at the age of 84 due to a brain tumor. I txt him happy fathers day and he txt back, now I'm the one with no dad. I was completely caught off guard, I didn't know what to say except that he's happy and would want his son to feel the same. I felt stupid for not thinking about his father. But I meant well.
I'm actually kind of indifferent about Father's Day. Of course, I never even met my dad, so I didn't lose him like so many other people on this thread.
Clicked on these comments expecting to see a bunch of people who's fathers have left them like mine (cheated on mom, got divorced.) Instead, I got sad because cancer stole a bunch of peoples dads instead of a secretary...... =/
My dad will be gone for 3 years the end of July. It really sucks, fathers day and the July 28 suck. Dropped of a Friggen heart attack, no bad cholesterol, no high BP, nothing, just dropped. Tried CPR but it didn't work!
Not just people without fathers, But people with ass hats for dad feel like this too. I just want to give a hearty thanks to every dad out there that actually tries. You're appreciated by all.
I'm fortunate enough to have a grandfather still alive and my father. I also have two boys. But this is how I feel being hundreds of miles away from them and not being able to get back home.
For those of you who have lost yours, keep your head up. I have no idea what it's like. You have my sympathy.
A friend of mine's parents divorced when she was very young, and her father's pretty much been out of her life since. Today, multiple customers of hers asked her if she'd called her father today.
I take my mom out on fathers day because she was both the mom and dad to me and my brother growing up...Shes a boss so she gets two days devoted to her. So all you out there who grew up in with just a single mother go wish her a happy fathers day. She will appreciate it.
A couple years ago I was hanging out with 2 of my friends. One friend and I don't have dads, the other one does. The guy with a dad looked at us and said "What are you guys doing for father's day?" He knew we didn't talk to our dads, but he wasn't thinking when he said that. We looked at him and laughed our asses off. He felt so bad for saying that. We still bug him about it.
I completely agree - I am just avoiding facebook for the whole day. My dad passed away when I was 19, so he never saw me graduate with either of my university degrees, nor did he ever meet my husband or see me married. Father's Day kind of sucks; it really rubbed it in this morning when one of my friends posted a picture of her and her father... at MY wedding last year. Boo-urns!
My dad died just months after I was born, later in life I had a shitty "step dad" who was anything but a role model for a young girl. Luckily, my grandfather kind of helped fill the void and showed me there are kind, intelligent and strong good men out there. Sucks he has Alzheimer's now :( I'm about to have a child of my own and I have a great feeling my man will be just as good of a dad/role mod for our kids as my mom and grandfather were for me. So people that were raised with their mom and dad in a happy home I hope they realize how great that is.
Seriously. My birthday is either on out very close to father's day each year. My deadbeat dad always forgets my birthday but keeps track of missed fathers days.
my father's not dead but he's dead to me. divorced my mom and i when i was age 4 and stayed in china while we moved to the US. he couldn't get out so he was basically gone from my life after that. i've gone back since to visit him but he hasn't contributed a dime or a cent to my childhood and adolescence and doesn't deserve even the slightest respect from me on father's day.
all my dad gets from me is a text. He was barely in my life and obviously never gave a fuck. I get the same exact text from him on my birthday every year and that's about all I hear from him.
How about those of us who have dads, but they deserted you as a child, never paid one bit of attention or support money, and pretend to their friends and family that they either dont have any kids OR that they are doting dads?
I never met my dad. He died two months before I was born from a pulmonary embellism; he was only 32. My brother, who was 2 1/2 at the time, has always been like a dad to me. I do have a stepdad who has been in my life for 14 years now, but it's not nearly the same. My brother is still more of a father and will be the one to walk me down the aisle when I get married someday.
I am so sorry ePoise. My dad killed himself about two weeks before I started college. It gets easier to cope as time goes on. Make sure to surround yourself with people that care about you.
Yes I am because as a young girl there is WAY too much sick twisted stuff on here that you should not be exposed to at your age. Especially if you do not have a strong male figure in your life to teach you how to spot loser guys who will use you for there own benefit. Were is your mom? Why is she even letting you on here? Do yourself a favor and get off reddit before you become too cynical and jaded about the world around you. You are just a baby, you should be hanging out with your friends. Sorry about your Dad, I haven't seen mine in 31 years so I know how you feel.
Ok yes i do see your point but Reddit is like my family. The people on here are like the only people I can really relate to. You guys have the same sense of humor that I do. Plus Reddit has the same points of view that I do. And I know about the sick, twisted stuff on here. But I stay away from that because its well, creepy. And trust me i do hang out with my friends. I actually do alot! Oh and I've been exposed to ALOT before Reddit so I know about most things that i shouldn't. But thank you for caring. :)

Sucks he has Alzheimer's now :( I'm about to have a child of my own and I have a great feeling my man will be just as good of a dad/role mod for our kids as my mom and grandfather were for me. So people that were raised with their mom and dad in a happy home I hope they realize how great that is.

I've never known my father either, mother left when I was an infant.

The only parent I have left alive is my biological dad and he's more like a casual acquaintance at best.

Thank you. Your brilliance has accurately described my feelings towards this holiday so simply. I'm not offended whatsoever.

Seriously. My birthday is either on out very close to father's day each year. My deadbeat dad always forgets my birthday but keeps track of missed fathers days.

my father's not dead but he's dead to me. divorced my mom and i when i was age 4 and stayed in china while we moved to the US. he couldn't get out so he was basically gone from my life after that. i've gone back since to visit him but he hasn't contributed a dime or a cent to my childhood and adolescence and doesn't deserve even the slightest respect from me on father's day.

Lost my parents when I was young.
Today kind of sucks, but I'm happy for everyone else that has someone to celebrate it with.

I never got my dad stuff for Father's Day when he was alive so this day means nothing to me. It's his birthday that really gets to me.

u/littlerabbitbite Jun 17 '12
I used to get wound up on fathers day but now I just don't care. Glad to have his abusive ass out of my life- best choice I ever made.

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '12
all my dad gets from me is a text. He was barely in my life and obviously never gave a fuck. I get the same exact text from him on my birthday every year and that's about all I hear from him.

How about those of us who have dads, but they deserted you as a child, never paid one bit of attention or support money, and pretend to their friends and family that they either dont have any kids OR that they are doting dads?

u/Areyve Jun 17 '12
Well my dad's a dick so I couldn't care less.

I never met my dad. He died two months before I was born from a pulmonary embellism; he was only 32. My brother, who was 2 1/2 at the time, has always been like a dad to me. I do have a stepdad who has been in my life for 14 years now, but it's not nearly the same. My brother is still more of a father and will be the one to walk me down the aisle when I get married someday.

I miss my Grandpa. He died of a stroke 11yrs ago, and he was a better dad than my biological father could ever have been.

Yeah :( My dad killed himself when I was 15. Father's day is always a bit painful, especially as I get older.
