before i begin to tell you the story, i'd like to say i have 2 pet birds (they are part of this)
so my dad has tons of diseases, which will last him all his life. So anyways, he doesn't have a job now, and he is miserable.
But what he can do, is play online poker, and that's all he does.
Anyways, so he's been having to take steroids to treat his diseases, which makes him go on outrages.
And in the first place, he wasn't such a nice guy. (usually)
so my birds just love to chirp. And when my dad is trying to sleep (instead of getting a job) and the birds are squeaking, he goes on an outrage.
And he blames me and my brother for his problems, he just yells at us as it's our fault for all his problems.
And, whenever our internet goes out when he's playing poker, he shuts hi computer, walks right into our room, and yells and cusses at us. Even though he didn't do anything.
He's selfish.
And so i come home today. My birds are chirping so i plan to get them out when i'm done eating. Right when i grab my snack and settle in to relax, he busts into my room and yells at the top of his lungs. Get the birds now! Or i'm giving them away! (that just fcked me off)
and so i say i will when i'm done eating.
Then without thinking he says. Maybe they need food also!
(even though they have bird seed, honey sticks, and millet.
So then he stomps to his room and slams the door.
And so he makes my life hell.
Now i'm here with my birds, letting people know how bad i really have it
anyways, right now
i can't feel any love for him at all
and now i sit here, crying as i type this.
With no hope of change.
So i need some help getting through this
and, i still want to keep my dad, because somewhere deep inside, i know he's good
please comment on how you feel about my situation
