Interracial Relationships - dealing with racism


Expert: Melissa Burton (a.k.a Bee) - 8/17/2006

Question
ive spent years trying to re establish a relatonship with my parents, mostly my father, i feel like he hates me, he treats me different than any of his other children and i know its because of my dating choices, it breaks my heart, he lets me down time after time, and dogs me out when im doing good for myself, how do i deal with feeling abandoned and feeling like im being pushed away from him, should i just leave it alone and nevr talk to him again? i dont know what to do!

Answer
Hello
You know it really is horrible that this is even a problem for you. It's very sad to see relationships fall apart because of something minor like your dating choices. The best thing you can really do is just tell him how you feel. Let him know how he is hurting you and how you are feeling and how this is hurting you. Let him know how you are feeling. If he is worthy of your feelings he will listen to you and try to improve things and recognize that he is the one who is being wrong. If for some reason he doesn't do any of thise things then yes you should just leave it alone and not talk to him at all or not too often. I am sorry you have to go through this at all but I hope your parents will see how horribly they are treating you and try to change things!
Melissa
