Guest guest Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 OK, I had a dream that my father was giving everyone medals for scholarship in the field which I specialized: Napoleon. Everyone but me. So I went to him. He told me that the medals were wonderful. I wanted one. He hesitated and put me off but he clearly wanted everyone recognized but me. So I basically flipped out in the dream but my father kept quietly resisting my plea. I woke up like I had been yelling and the powerful feeling was: " he was showing me he didn't love me " . So now when someone powerfully shows me or anyone that they don't love I call it the " Napoleon Medal " . So your father won't pick up the gift to powerfully show he doesn't care while he pussyfoots and half way denies it. So, if I were you, I would take this as my exit. My exit was when he didn't care if I died in 9/11. That was enough contempt for one lifetime. > > > I sent a parcel to my father (NPD father, BPD stepmother, he went from a > waif BPD-my mother- to queen bitch BPD stepmonster) and its been held at the > post office since the 20th. > > I e-mailed him to let him know last week that it was at the post office. > > I never received a phone call on Christmas day, which is unusual for him. > He knows that I won't call them because I'm on his wifes shit list. > > On boxing day I sent him an e-mail thanking him for the gifts, saying that > the kids would have liked to thank him for their gifts as well and I > supposed that he was out of town and didn't want to ring up the phone bill. > > He e-mailed on Monday, responding to the first e-mail, saying that he > hadn't picked it up and would that day. > > He still hasn't picked it up.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 That is a great analogy Millicent, thank you for sharing. I know what you say is true, he's been really showing me this my entire life but I've been like a little puppy, grasping onto every little scrap of affection from him, hoping that maybe he'd just love me like a normal human being. As an adult, I see my own husband with my girls, and think of the things that my father did to me, and I just *know* that my husband wouldn't do that to my girls. I mean my father never physically abused me, but witholding love and affection, while dangling little bits here and there to a starving girl, that could be considered abuse I suppose. Abandoning me to my mother and her illness. I mean, she tried to kill him before he left, and then she tried to kill me 7 years later in the same way, but he didn't beleive me! *facepalm* I think the worst is that he does everything passive agressively. He didn't invite me to his wedding. He didn't tell me when his father died. He's let me down more often than hes actually been there as a father for me. I just wish I could get past the hurt and stop aching for it to change. > > > > > > > I sent a parcel to my father (NPD father, BPD stepmother, he went from a > > waif BPD-my mother- to queen bitch BPD stepmonster) and its been held at the > > post office since the 20th. > > > > I e-mailed him to let him know last week that it was at the post office. > > > > I never received a phone call on Christmas day, which is unusual for him. > > He knows that I won't call them because I'm on his wifes shit list. > > > > On boxing day I sent him an e-mail thanking him for the gifts, saying that > > the kids would have liked to thank him for their gifts as well and I > > supposed that he was out of town and didn't want to ring up the phone bill. > > > > He e-mailed on Monday, responding to the first e-mail, saying that he > > hadn't picked it up and would that day. > > > > He still hasn't picked it up.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 He is a bit of a mystery to me honestly. His mother, I beleive was BPD. Then he met my mother, who, when stressed out dips into schitzophrenia (paranoid delusions and the like). He went from woman to woman until he met this new Stepmonster who is textbook BPD. She controls him. She would happily say that it was because of her that he and I even have a relationship and she's right. She held that over my head for years. When my mother tried to kill me when I was 11/12, I begged him to take me in and he did. He had just moved in with this woman that he had only known for about 8 months. I was a problem child though (ya think?) and her sons (three of them) would break shit and it would end up in my room. She would fake strokes, fake illness, claim that I was causing all this stress and tourmoil in the house and that I needed to go. He kicked me out, then my mother wouldn't take me back in. He never called to make sure I was ok, he just thought she took me back into the house. I was on my own for a good 6 months, I'm not sure because I literally have NO idea what happened during that time. He got married sometime in the next year, and shortly thereafter my grandfather died. He told me christmas day that " oh by the way, I got married " . When I asked how my grandfather was, I was told he was " 6 feet under " . Nice eh? We lived out west for 13 years and he visited exactly 4 times. One out of the blue, when my eldest was born, when I graduated university (to which he said he would shit his pants if that ever happened), and once when my youngest was born. I almost died with my youngest, and he didn't give a crap, wasn't concerned at all. I had major surgery and he didn't seem to care either (it was major abdominal surgery where I was in the ICU for several days after). Last year, dad had suggested that he and his witchwife would come out to visit for christmas (my husband was deployed over christmas). She did not want to come. It's a long story, but she was caught in some lies. I didn't call her on it, but I let her know she was caught. A few months before she " developed " breast cancer. She's been dying since I met her. I figured it was a ploy. They said that things were up in the air, and if I needed to make other arrangements, to go ahead. I told them that he needed to say " yes " or " no " to them coming, that it was HIS decision to make. I was supportive of her illness, I talked to her on the phone, I e-mailed. But I also asked if they were coming. Apparently I " nagged " and was " unsuppportive in her time of need " . She sent me an e-mail telling me that she needed my father more than I did that that time, and that she didn't get cancer to ruin my christmas *eyeroll*. I told her she was being ludicris, that all I wanted was a yes or no, that most people when faced with life or death illness may in fact want to be surrounded by family in times of crisis. Anyway, she returned all the christmas presents we sent the following month, along with a 3 page letter detailing the hell she has been through (drama mama) and the third page detailing what a horrible unsupportive person I was. I didn't respond to the letter, nor will I ever. So, again, he sides with her. She has pushed his sisters and the rest of his family out of his life. And now she is pushing me out of his life. The way that I look at it, is that he is reaping what he is sowing. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I sent a parcel to my father (NPD father, BPD stepmother, he went from > > a > > > > waif BPD-my mother- to queen bitch BPD stepmonster) and its been held > > at the > > > > post office since the 20th. > > > > > > > > I e-mailed him to let him know last week that it was at the post > > office. > > > > > > > > I never received a phone call on Christmas day, which is unusual for > > him. > > > > He knows that I won't call them because I'm on his wifes shit list. > > > > > > > > On boxing day I sent him an e-mail thanking him for the gifts, saying > > that > > > > the kids would have liked to thank him for their gifts as well and I > > > > supposed that he was out of town and didn't want to ring up the phone > > bill. > > > > > > > > He e-mailed on Monday, responding to the first e-mail, saying that he > > > > hadn't picked it up and would that day. > > > > > > > > He still hasn't picked it up.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Hi, Our fathers do have similar personalities. I also had a horrible woman in the house during my teens years who wanted me out. My father found devil women so he could feel sane in comparison. While he deals with the daily drama he gets to feel like he's all right and he doesn't have to deal with his own issues. He's also a bit of a hoarder, obsessed with money, liked me to fight with his woman, sneaky, creepy. He always sided with the person abusing me except when he was trying to punish the woman. He wanted everyone to know his contempt. His last wife was very homemakery and she wanted to pretend to make happy family while she attacked me. Then my father would tell me that I failed her in some way to get us fighting. He'd tell her I was great and he'd tell me she was great while showing as much contempt as possible. Basically if the relationship isn't somewhat 50/50 we'll never win. > > > He is a bit of a mystery to me honestly. > > His mother, I beleive was BPD.
