[cilla]

So.. my dad has been saying for many year's that he's "dying" or "sick" because he's a diabetic... well the past 3 months he's lost 50 pounds

the only advice i can give is to tell you to do what you know you need to do to make yourself happy...you are still young and have your entire life ahead of you and it's most important that you are happy and healthy...is there anyway you can get your dad to go to the doctor?...maybe tricking him or something?...i don't know if that's a good idea but whether it's his diabetes or cancer he obviously is sick and needs help...you just need to keep telling yourself that he's unhappy and confused and that's the only reason he says those things to you...they aren't true, never have been and never will be...you are very bright and will amount to lots...you are a beautiful and intelligent girl and i know you will figure out a way to handle this situation...good luck and let me know if i can do anything to help...love you

I'd say move. You arent sure your dad is going to die because he wont go to the hospital, so why should you hold back your life for something you arent sure about? He's been holding you down long enough. It's time you step up and start living your life for you.

You can't change your dads life, but you can change yours.

man, that's a tough situation but I have to agree with the two others who responded. You NEED to move for YOURSELF...I've known you for a while now and have been through some tough situations like yourself and the only way to move forward is to not look back. I don't know your dad (I think I might have met him once before) but it sounds like he could be making his health situation seem worse to keep you around. He may be your father, but yall's relationship is NOT a healthy one and I think the both of us have been in relationships that were not good for us, so you should know by now when to walk away. I know it's hard because he's your father, but if you want to get on with your life and finally be somewhat happy you need to move on. Goodluck girl, I hope everything works out for you and Aaron! <3
