Why does he try ??

I’m sure you hold some resentment for what he did in the past, but if he has truely changed ,and I’m sure you can tell, you shouldn’t hold the past against him. the past can’t be changed but the future can be made better. maybe he wants to re-establish his relationship with you and be a good father. people do change. but if you only bring up the past and don’t acknowledge his efforts to change than nothing will ever get better.

While he may be trying to patch things up with you, he could also be trying to get close to you and his mother to steal from you. Give him a chance, but don’t be too trusting for a while.

Yes, he is trying to fix things. I have a friend who had was in the same situation like you. So I must warn you, don’t trust him too much. I’m telling you this because my friend was confused by her father and began trusting him but he fell back in his old patern. And if you don’t want his attention just try to slightly ignore him.

maybe he’s trying to fix things , you know making a right from a wrong

theres always someone else in the world has it worse than you

He feels like a failure and wants to make up for it.. but he’s probably only trying to prove it to himself, to make himself feel better.
