What do you do when your dad stops talking to you?

Asked by supernaturall1treehil 5 months ago, 6 answers.

Me and my dad were pretty okay. He use to drive me to my basketball games everytime and use to take be everywhere. One day he got angry at me and we got in a hudge fight. Usualy my dad does not hold grudges, but this time he has. He has been ignoring me...

and not talking to me for almost a week now. My mom says hes waiting for me to apologize, but I know for a fact, that I am not wrong here. My dad sometimes call me rude names and so thats what made our fight so big. I dont want to apologize because its not fair that I always have to. He needs to understand that what he says hurts my feelings but , whenever I try to tell him he never listen's. and now he completly stopped talking to me. Please someone out there help me!! what should I do??

Who's that? Oh, me. Answered by maddie1414 on May 26, 2009, 07:04PM

As hard as it is, you DO have to apologize. While doing it, make sure you stay in a calm voice. Also, explain to him that the fight you two were in was really hurting you and you're sorry for the things you did, but he really hurt your feelings. My guess is that if you do it calmly and after an apology, he will listen when you explain what's hurting you. Try talking to your Mom about it and tell her that it would help if she could talk to him about your fighting too. Good luck!

have you tried saying your pregnant that usually gets a response lol. sorry touchy subject.

Anyways like other advice just apologize for the FIGHT, NOT the reason for the fight, apologize are always tricky, but using the right words can still create an apology on his side to you. Apologize for losing your cool, NOT the reason you lost your cool, say Just when PEOPLE call me names like that it really hurts my self esteem (better then saying feelings to a guy, I am sure he wants to be your father not every other jerk out in the world, when you generalize it like that he does not want to be like OTHER PEOPLE, he loves you and wants to be the one to support you no matte what he says, you are a part of him, if he hurts you he is only showing what a failure he is at loving himself, if he loves you he might make mistakes but he would neve knowingly hurt you. hope that helps

hey chick it sounds to me as if your in a similar situation as I am, my relationship with my dad isnt as good as it used to be and he doesnt have much trust for me anymore.
as hard as it is, you have to apologise. hes the father and he makes the rules, you dont have to mean it, just say sorry. im sure you will be happier once you have apologised and all will be sorted. dont forget, your not far off being 18 so you will be able to make up your own rules pretty soon happy

You should wait until he apologizes. If he doesn't, try to avoid him for a week or so. Then start talking to him and he'll forget it ever happened.
