I am distant from my dad because he abandoned my family. I wear rebellious clothing.
I have one daughter. She is studying pre-med in university. My wife had cancer. I work at the zoo. My wife also works. I cheat on my wife.
I wish my dad wouldn't have abandoned me.  I'm so sorry that happened to you.  I can't stop thinking about him. I wonder where he is now. I think it's my fault however my brother says it's because my mother cheated on him. Aren't you worried about that happening to you? I don't think it was your fault. Is there anyway you can find him now? I'm a father and I never want to leave my daughter. I mean what if your wife finds out and she leaves. Your daughter might blame it on herself. I tried contacting him however my mother doesn't let me. I think she's intercepting messages from him. Oh I guess I never thought about that. Maybe I need to be more honest. I'm sorry your mother is doing that. Have you tried explaining to her why you're reaching out? No. It's not worth it. I think that I already have lost my dad so there's no good reason to risk losing my mom either. What university does your daughter go to? That's true. Try to enjoy your time with your Mom. My daughter goes to Yale Medical School. Yale? My brother attends Yale Social Sciences. That's crazy! Is Yale near you guys? Do you visit often? What a small world! It's actually a bit far, we live in North Carolina and have only visited a few times since dropping her off. Since we live very nearby, I can visit at anytime. He actually didn't love that Yale was so close, however he doesn't mind the free food. Wow, that's really cool. Haha and I bet he brings home his dirty laundry too. When will you visit him again?
