well my father is technically still alive although I can't wait for him to die though the old b**** is 70, rich and can't seem to die soon like my grand father who is around 90, smoked and drank all his life and was never sick. I wouldn't like to die before this guy. My mom died when I was like 15 and he hated her. she died because of him. When I was like 23 I already wasn't talking to him for years ( I left home at 17 for college) he wrote me a letter on my birthday to tell me that well I'm not his son anymore and that's it. I never prosecuted him for making him to pay for my food and stuff because I thought my mom wouldn't like that. But I regret. I couldn't eat every day while he was getting around 15 000 euros/month . When he'll die I wont get a dime because he disowned me. Still earth will be a better place without him.
For some life's not a joy ride. trust me ;D
Mine is 70 too and still have energy to bitch about me all the time! I'm pretty sure mom will die first and he'll be around for decades. always the fuckers stick around ::)
and you already know that some of them ( if not most) will not get it or understand it at all because they aren't in your shoes! I think it's better to just live normally and don't make your happiness depends on others! if you accepted yourself then you're already happy you don't need to share your information to be happy. I tried it once with my straight best friend and told him I'm gay even though he was cool about it but I felt SO ridiculous and I wish I could take it back. nobody needs to know what I'm into really!
