: When my daughter's father left (April 1972), it was a rare thing.
i don’t recall ever hearing such tales back then...then again, i was three, and really into sesame street.
: He messed up because he wasn't man enough to face his responsibilities.
so few men are.
when i became a husband and a father, i realized my insecurities had no place in the mix. i might let myself fall and falter, but they deserve much more, and that’s what they continue to get. i'm much more afraid of letting them down then letting myself down.
: He wasn't even paying child support and I was too weak and introverted to do anything about it.
that’s not the nastypup we’ve gotten to know here at va, not at all!
:But I grew and got the nerve to get child support when my daughter was 16. That really pissed him off and that's why he disowned her when she turned 18.
what a petty, vindictive, useless man you had the displeasure to be associated with. i'm glad you were able to sever the relationship when you did, and not only salvage but nurture what you were able to have with you daughter. i don’t even want to know what sort of self-worth and esteem issues you have had to deal with in your relationship with your daughter over the years, but clearly you two have come out on top.
: Today, I am strong, my daughter is strong, and he suffers from bleeding ulcers and other stress-related ailments. Poor schmuck.
eventual karma strikes again! with any luck, he has lost all his hair as well...keep on truckin’
