My dad and I never talk about anything. He talks (re: orders) to me when he needs me to do something.

Sorry to say, but there isn't really love between us; just the biological tie and obligation.

 

we arent that close, but we talk about stuff pretty often. i help him with his shit like snow removal, remodeling.. im glad he's my dad

 

my dad and i get along pretty damn good...

hes always included me in everything from workin in our engine shop to helping build the houses we have lived in to involving me in our family business the moment i was able to walk really.

i have pictures of me laying on a creeper under our 37 coupe when my dad was first building it, passed out with tools in my hand, i couldnt have been more than 3.

also ever since i was about 4 my dad would take me to work with him about every day and involve me with the employees, customers, and the business.

on top of that we both have a great love and respect for hunting, the wilderness, and racing. we are pretty close. we are more like brothers sometimes when we go out drinking and start ladie watching

 

My dad is one of the strongest men I know over the age of 60. He and I often play ping-pong together and he gives me advice on my life choices. He is also my Economics teacher at school h:

 

almost same shit, its a bit worse. when i actually try to have a conversation with him, he tends to pick out some words and fuck up the whole convo.

i hate it.

edit - i hate it in the sense that thats how it is. i want to get close, but we are both too stuburn (sp) to get through shit. ironically we tend to work pretty good together when it comes to the weekend business. besides that, nothing.

 

I don't really talk to my dad about well, anything really, .... He tries but the two of us are too different h:

EDIT:
I should mention I'm referring to my stepdad whom I consider my DAD just because the man raised me instead of my biological father... whom I rarely, rarely, rarely talk to :hs:

 

I have that relationship with my stepdad.

My real dad and I are kinda like buddies that don't talk much.

 

Mine just disapproves everything I do. From my choice of major in college even nitpicks what my job in the Air Force will be.

Do you get jealous of friends who can shoot the shit with their dad? I do

 

we don't talk about deep stuff. hardly ever call each other just to talk. i haven't lived with him since i was 12, and he wasn't around much before that, so we're not super close.

 

ironically, my dad does the same shit.

and yes, i do get jealous when my friends & their fathers can actually just chill. i want it to be better, but its going to need work from the both of us. This subject always got to me.
