I have never been a daddy's girl although I would have loved to have been.I grew up waiting and expecting things from a person who promised and never came through on his promises.I am a grown 34 year old now and I still fall for the promises everytime.I guess child like faith dies hard.Within the past month or so I have been told that I would be given a vehicle and a house.Music to my ears seeing that right about now I need a little help on my journey.These are things I did not ask for so when my dad so freely starting volunteering to purchase or finance these things everything sounded great.
Although I have been let down and disappointed by broken promises before, I was willing to believe he was being truthful and has good intentions.Wrong of me to do so! I am so badly in need of a vehicle right now that I emailed my dad and asked how the progress was going looking for my vehicle that he volunteered to get.He baasically gave me the brush off and said he was in no hurry to get it now and he can't just rush and purchase a vehicle.I was slighty pissed cause I let myself get happy thinking he would actually make me a priority,but then I realized I have the power over what I let people do to me.
There is always that one person who can reduce you to feeling like you are a child again and he is that one person for me.I don't like the feelings I had as a child waiting and watching to see if he would keep his promises and I refuse to continue to put myself through this torture.I wash my hands of him lies promises whatever he wants to call it their is a void in my soul that I guess will never be filled,a spot that should have been filled with kind memories and loving moments that only a father and daughter share.I am tired worn out.I am grown and it's over.I have distanced myself from a few people this year because they were toxic to me I guess I'll add him to the list too and keep it moving.
I have to keep reminding myself that the power is mine,and to never let someone reduce me to feeling hurtful feelings or reliving the past again

  | Posted Nov 29th, 2008 at 9:45AM I had one daughter (three sons - ond died in infancy) and only one granddaughter (Four grandsons) Ther are daddy's girl and granddaddy's girl - I hope my granddaughter never figures it out but she could climb in my lap, kiss me on the cheek, say, I love you, and ask for a thousand dollars and I would give it to her. I spoiled both of them and would again.   |
 | Posted Nov 29th, 2008 at 10:11AM It is refreshing to hear that there are men who treat their daughters like princess's and queens.This means alot my grandfather is that way with my mom,but outside of him I hadnt really come intocontact with men who treat theit daughters like they should.I can tell you have a good heart and I know your family appreciates and loves you levin 6 0kitty! |
