I’m so sorry 😦 I grew up in an abusive household–solutions are never simple. If you ever need to vent, let me know *hugs if ok*
*hugs* Thank you. I’m sorry you grew up in an abusive household, too.

You are totally validated at being angry over this. My ex was exactly the fucking same. Well he didn’t drink but like everyone thought the fucking world of him. He could charm anyone. Well unless they got to be a good friend of mine then he’d be nasty to them or try and turn me against them. What I’m saying is abusers are A+ at fooling people.
I hate that they’re so good at it. I hate that they’re able to fool people into thinking they’re good and wonderful people. It’s unfair and I hate that you went through it, too.
Maybe you could anonymously let the people he’s trying to mentor for know of his unwholesome behavior?
See, that would be an okay idea, but they’re not going to believe it. He’s a recovering alcoholic (he’s a dry drunk though, he was knocked out for a few months after an accident so he couldn’t drink instead of deciding to quit and work through the recovery process) so in their mind he’s a changed man. It doesn’t matter what I say, if it’s not currently happening and they can’t see it, they won’t care b/c he admits to being a “less than stellar father” in his words but he won’t go into details and he won’t admit it was his fault. They’re much more likely to believe their buddy than they are to believe me.

@samanddeaninpanties beat me to what I was gonna say. Plus why would he work to get praise and approval from people he knows when he can get instant praise and approoval.
From virtual strangers
True. The strangers will love and adore him until they don’t and then he can dispose of them.

Who says he really cares? He might be doing it for his image. People eat that shit up.
Narcissistic people are generally really good at getting people they aren’t actively abusing to like them
Those are good points. I wouldn’t put it past him, seeing as how the people who wanted him to do it in the first place think the sun shines out of his ass. Everyone seems to think he’s amazing and it always pisses me off because this is the same man who used to get blackout drunk and verbally and mentally abuse us. He’s not the kind of man I’d want mentoring kids and it pisses me off that everyone thinks he’s a wonderful person but he’s not. He neglects everyone who *does* need him until he needs someone to rage at. He’s a self-centered dick but no one sees it and no one wants to believe it. And I hate all the asshats who fall for it and keep propping him up like he’s great.
Maybe I shouldn’t be so jealous or petty but it bothers me that my father is so involved with other people. He’s offered to be a youth mentor… again…
It just bothers me because he never gave a shit when I was a teenager. My brother is 16 and my father’s never around to mentor him. It’s just… why do you care so much about other people? Why didn’t you ever care about me?

why did the fray go off so hard in how to save a life?
So we could cry when they lose patients on doctor shows
Clings to you Is there anything i can do to help
Thanks. Not really. I just need to mellow out, I think. Let myself have a while to not do anything.
Semi-related: When I told my bf how a co-worker told her husband that she was pregnant (positive test in a little necklace box), my bf said that she should have gotten him a “dad” mug. You bet your butt that when I found out I was pregnant a few years later, I rushed out and bought him a “Best Dad Ever” mug.
Hahaha! That’s amazing and super cute! I love little things like that.
