My family had a blow out not to long ago and everyone is against my dad but me and I had sworn him off awhile ago. Not expecting anything from him. The other night I was talkign to him about my mom since he hasnt been home for three weeks and it was awesome to actually have a conversation not just a passing hi. And then HE ASKED ME...ME...for a hug...I was caught off guard....I jsut wanted to put my two cents in.....rebuilding relationships can be interesting.....or trying to salvage one that really was never there....
