Trying to Bond With Dad—Is It Ever Too Late? 🤔
Growing up, my dad and I barely spoke about anything real. Now, after years of awkward silences and unspoken hurts, I find myself wondering: can we ever truly connect? Sometimes I feel like reaching out, but the weight of old arguments and disappointments makes it hard to even pick up the phone.
I've tried to see things from his side, but forgiving isn't easy when the past still stings. Every time I try to talk, I worry he'll just brush me off or not understand where I'm coming from. Still, I can't help but hope that maybe, just maybe, we can find some common ground—maybe at a ball game or over coffee, just talking about life instead of the past.
Have you ever struggled to reconnect with your dad? What helped you break the ice, or did you just give up? I’d love to hear your stories—maybe we can figure this out together. 🫶
