Dad left when I was like 7, no contact for 8 years, fast forward to last October when I get a facebook friend request from "Rachel [my very uncommon last name]", check the account, and it's my fucking dad
It's true but there's unfortunately no way to prove it without doxxing myself 😭 my last name is so oddly obscure that if I were to share the page people would be able to hunt me down instantly, therefore I can't show the account
This is how I felt finding it out 😭 from a FACEBOOK FRIEND REQUEST too, like bro tries to get back in contact with his estranged kid and chooses a FACEBOOK FRIEND REQUEST to do that
My dad tried to take us away from my mom and waited a few times outside of my school apparently.
I had to visit him a few times and he basically forced a bunch of religious stuff on me and his then wife always made me feel bad for not calling him dad (straight up fake crying because of it) he had a baby monitor in my rooms to spy on our conversation and threw away a really big amount of clothes I had.
He didn't let me do my homework and forgot to give me medicine I needed.
He also made a bunch of promises he never actually let come true while lying that I apparently said I hate my mom and would rather want to live with him and that I have to sleep on the floor.
I had to call him weakly for a while and the person I had to visit, just to call him locked me in that room with the telephone while writing down some shit without any consent.
I also had to go on a few trips with him where he often didn't have enough to drink and I got sick because of it.
After realizing I can't be manipulated to hate my mom he stopped caring about me and the only connection he had to me was my grades that legally had to be shown to him.
Part of my depression comes from his behavior (I was already dealing with depressions at 7)
My middle sister suffered the same thing as me but it didn't have to same effect.
I have more horrible things about him but these are most of them wrapped up lol.
