Fuck my fucking alcoholic wreck of a father.

[Angel]

I agree.

And my mother needs to leave his ass as well. I feel that he'll only start to wake up to himself and realize the damage he's done when that happens. When he completely isolates me and his wife.

Should've called the cops, and had him charged with assault...

That part of it is like dealing with an addict...she's got to want to get out for herself.

You can't change an addict FragileCock. They have to want to do it themselves. Your mom is co-dependant, and probably has no idea how to get out of the situation. If she even wants to. Just like you can't make your dad quit drinking, you can't make your mom do what needs to be done either.

I seriously doubt your dad meant the things he said. Doesn't make them hurt any less. Maybe one day he'll realize he has issues, and deal with it in the proper manner.

Don't you have any other family you can stay with? I'd hate to see you give up on your education, but you may have to put it on hold for the time being. You do need to get out of there.

Just don't spend 30 years in college, like Angel.

Von...thank you. I totally expected you to come down on the lad...I was elated to find words of wisdom instead.

And shouldn't it be 32 years by now?

Von...thank you. I totally expected you to come down on the lad...I was elated to find words of wisdom instead.

Had FragileCock prefaced the story with him being pissed off at his dad for interrupting his watching Gilligan's Island, because his dad needed assistance, I'd have been an asshole with my response.

And shouldn't it be 32 years by now?

At least.

Von, I never expected that you'd actually give me some actual advice. When it comes to her being co-dependent, you're absolutely right. At this time, both my mother and father have high-paying jobs. My mother is white-collar and my father is blue-collar, however I'd be lying if I said that me and my family live like kings. My mother depends on my father's income and my father depends on my mother's income which is probably the only thing that is keeping Mom from finally getting a divorce.

You know something, belting me in the jaw and trying to asphyxiate me to death was like love taps. Telling me that he never wanted me was like a dagger in the fucking heart.

Von actually wants to adopt you...

Oh and violence is never an act of love. Never equate it to love or even caring... it's abuse, pure and simple. You should have called the cops and pressed charges. Actually you still can... your old man needs a serious wake up call. There's no excuse or justification for beating on your family... none.

If I were to do that, when the cops show up he would find a way to twist the story around to make it sound like I was attacking him first. I will admit that I hit him back in self defense, not to hurt him but to just get him the fuck off me.

This man needs a wake up call, he needs an intervention because I know this man. He would have NEVER hit me and he would have NEVER said that shit about me if he was sober. Hell, the argument would have never even TOOK PLACE if he was sober. It was only because of the fucking booze he keeps shoving down his neck. It's not the beer that does it, he literally chugs this cheap-ass scotch from the bottle while my mother isn't looking.

Well...I could have seen this coming.....

Me and Dad basically kissed and made up. He asks me to do a favor for him and I did it, sort of knowing what was going to happen. He then gets all kissy and huggy and basically tells me how sorry he was for everything. So, in record time we go from hating each other to being friends again which is really fucking weird seeing as how after the air conditioner incident, we didn't speak for almost an entire week.

However...I simply am at a loss of what to do right now. I know that getting a job and eventually moving out is something that I need to do for myself, but I feel like I need to get him to just stop with the fucking drinking.....I want us to never fight again, and that can never be achieved if he continues down this road.

I know a lawyer who could solve this in Vegas on Tuesday.

Move out.

Let him drink.

Share the air conditioner on weekends.*

Problem Solved.














*The Air Conditioner Incident. See Wikipedia. The Movie or the Original Novel. Just get the fuck out and trust to the trade winds for the rest of your life....you will do your heart good. Or stay the fuck there and poison the rest of your relationships for a hella long time.

People say stupid shit when they are drunk and angry.

There is a stupid myth about how people speak more truth when they have been drinking. This may be occasionally true in situations where people are too shy to express love but drunken statements made in anger usually you shouldn't take seriously because they are just the verbal equivalent of a drunk guy swinging an idiotic punch.

This always boils my piss... its a fucking granny story that makes about as much sense as stepping on cracks in the pavement. People who tell you this are usually pissed off you were bladdered and talking shite .... in my experience

Except in the case of verbal abuse, the idiotic punch connects...

You can't. Put the energy into improving your own circumstances. Learn to control your responses and try not to engage (it's hard, I know).
