I have been planning to go see my Dad in San Antonio. He lives in the home I grew up in and is my last living family member and is not abusive - just has his own issues. So it is a good/ummm not always good deal. I may try to extend my visit, he is fine with me being there as he is lonely. But, his home is filthy and cramped so... All the negatives aside, I do now know my Dad loves me and He accepts that I was abused. He worked and drank a lot when I was going through the worst of it and was truly cluelesss.
I am going to try and get the spare room cleaned up and maybe move into it and just quit trying to make it up to him. I'm pretty fed up with his neglect and indifference.

This sounds like it might be a good idea....worth a try. I think it is most likely true that he feels "less than" because he can't "fix" you. Guys just seem to think they have to fix stuff (including their wives problems). Your Higher Power will know what you should do, I hope you can ask him/her/it.
hugs,
Debbie et al.
