Tell us why you think it is a mistake? I can understand it resurfacing the painful emotional pain the drama crated that you buried long ago.

[OP] All of the above (mostly). I feel bad for connecting with her. Wish I hadn't opened myself up.

[OP] Seriously. The last picture of her was me holding her newborn in the hospital. I am now, 40 years later, no more worthy now of that beautiful baby girl than I was then.

I don’t blame you. Sometimes these situations just peel off emotional scabs that never really healed

I just saw a movie where the main character ended up having sex with his long lost daughter. Now that is f***ed up

I'm glad you met her. I wish my Dad wanted to be around me. He's no better than who he was when I was born (in fact he's worse bc he lost his business and became an addict when the woman he left my mom for left him). All I want is his acceptance for who I am without his judgment. He won't even answer the door for me or my call and will not invite me to anything. The only communication I get is through his brother who gives me money for college but I'd rather have time. He doesn't like me tho and only talks to the kids of the 2nd woman he had kids with.

^ 1-up^If you haven’t figured it out, you need to learn not to allow his rejection to define you. Your dad probably had a screwed-up life and childhood too and he is just dealing with his demons the best he knows how. By avoiding you he may fear facing more guilt than he already is doing.Try to forgive. Not because you should think he deserves forgiveness. But because you deserve peace about it. It also does not mean you forget either. I think that is asking too much of yourself. This is why we should be kind to everyone. All of us has a struggle of some kind
