I Hate My Father
Human Clauses March 6th, 2008I hate my father. Pure and simple, because I apparently act just like him. According to my mother, who was married to this man for two years, I have all of his traits. I cannot deny this simply because I do not know enough about my father to agree or disagree. I think I have met him a total of 5 times my entire life. He came to my grandfather’s funeral, I spent 3 summers with him when I was young, and I think he came once to surprise me. However, I still manage to “act just like him”.
I do have to admit that I am a smoker like my father. However, when I do something that my family frowns upon it is because its something my father would have done, according to my mother. Here is a small list of traits/fate that my family tells me I share with my father:
1) I smoke.
2) I’m a liar and a cheat.
3) I eat seafood.
4) I have sex even though I’m not married.
5) I cannot be trusted.
6) I take advantage of people.
7) I have no heart.
8) I’m going to hell when I die.
9) I’m going to end up a bum.
10) I will live in a trailer park married to a fat woman.
11) I’m an asshole
12) End up addicted to drugs
Now due to the fact that I hardly know my father except that he was in the army. So I cannot defend myself because I do not know if I am actually acting like my father, or not. How can I immolate someone I hardly know?
However, that is a moot point, because I am by all accounts doing a excellent job of following my father’s footsteps. So here I am acting just like my father, despite the fact I got into one of the best colleges in the U.S, and despite the fact I have NEVER taken advantage of someone, or joined the army or get a tattoo.
However, since I smoke, and have sex outside of marriage I am doomed to a life of drugs, trailer parks, and being just like my father. So I hate him. I hate him because no matter how hard I try to distance myself from this man who I know nothing about, I can’t. Since I have his name I guess that means I am destined to be him.
I guess that means my free will means jack shit next to the oh so powerful pulling force that is my father. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.

I feel your pain. the thing is, my grandma calls me names
and says horrible things about me, and she aint compairing anyone to me! My mom just loves her and calls her a jewel.
I can understand her loving her mother, I mean my mom is wonderful, but unfortunately, my grandma is not.
My mom uses the classic excuse “she won’t be with us much longer, so let’s make her last years ones to remember.”
Well, she sure is making my first ones to remember!
she is as stupid as a sack of shit and can’t even hold it in, yet she has the nerve to yell at me!
She has been scammed over the phone over a million times and won’t learn! they won’t stop calling because she won’t stop being a total worthless idiot that smells like a billion shit in, month old unflushed toilets!

I hate people who put their personal problems on the interweb and expect me to care.
so go fucking die in your Portuguese nightmare.

ahaha. I don’t get this.
You hate your father but you barely know him as a person?
That doesn’t make sense. But someone like me could never understand =]

Sounds like you’re hating on the wrong people. Your dad left you, so I understand it’s easy to want to blame him and hate him, but from you’re telling me here, it’s the rest of your familly that’s giving you crap for no real reason. Sounds to me like your mom is still bitter at your dad, and whether she knows it or not, she’s taking that out on you. It’s good that you’re at a top school, keep it up and don’t let your familly bring you down.

Mothers who haven’t taken an honest look at themselves usually blame their children for unknown horrors. You will be a fine father someday if you only listen to your heart….

Wow, how much time do people spend on this? I’m procrastinating from doing work… I find this site absolutely hilarious.
However, this particular blog entry drew my attention out of all the whinginess that is on here.It must be very confusing for you to understand in what ways you are like your father if you haven’t spent that much time with him. It is most likely that you may have a lot of physical traits and perhaps likes and dislikes that are similar or the same. But the list you have given are not personality traits their actions. If that is the message you are getting from your family, perhaps you should give them that exact list and see how many of them they haven’t ever done or thought they might be (apart from #10). Everyone at some point has taken advantage of someone or manipulated a situation and have thought themselves as bad or as an ‘asshole’. Furthering on from this, what person in the world hasn’t thought they were going to go to hell? What gives any person (even religious) to believe that they aren’t?
If your family has done any of those 10 things (which is most likely), try putting it to them: “Hey looks like there’s a piece of dad in all of us!”
Or counseling is a pretty good way with dealing.

You hate your father for leaving your mother. You hate the fact that your are just like him. What are some good things about you father? You should focus on those things, and grow from there. Take what you know good about him and cherish those ideals.
You shouldn’t hate him for the way that you came out. You are you, not him. You have made all of your own choices. You are you! You are not him!

I think he has a right to hate who he wants to hate. If he hates his Dad, so be it. If he hates himself, so be it. You know what i hate? Dickheads that bitch about people ranting on the internet. What were expecting from ihatethis.org..?

I fucking hate my grandmother she is the biggest bitch i’ve known. She does’nt like me. But treats my cousins and my sister like they’re gods. She favors them over me. And when i tell my mom she says yes she does love you but im the one who is wrong. My grandmother is a bitch to me only. I cant wait till she fucken dies

As a feminist, I am appaled that you dislike your grandmother! Women are the superior race and until you accept this your grandmother will always hate you. Try to get your grandmother the vote, as without it she will always be a bitter and twisted old hag.
Love the feminist xxx
P.S. All hail Emmeline Pankhurst!!!!!

I hate my Mother. My family says the same thing about me. I haven’t seen the woman since I was 6 and yet some how I have mannage to become the mirror image of her according to my family. I dind’t know that I’m a whore apparently, thank god I have my family around to let me know that otherwise I might skip about life all happy and care free. After all, my mother was the Whore of Babylon, so I come about my profession naturally. I’m also a heartless bitch so HEY welcome to THAT club dude, pull up a seat and bring a coat because it gets cold in them meeting. But on the plus side, since we will be going to hell when we die, we’ll get awfully warm, you bring the marshmellows okie dokie? And I promise that when you die I will personally introduce you to my father. Because after all, I am the daughter of Santan himself. At least that’s what my family says.

Are you currently in a major dispute with a family member? Is this feud causing a ruckus in your household, or making home life unbearable? Are other family members staying neutral or are sides being chosen? Has the dispute elevated to the point where some legal action has been taken or has become necessary? Are you considering seeking family counseling for this feud, or does this feud seem to have no end in sight?
OR, is your family currently feuding with another family, like a modern day Hatfields vs McCoys? Are you not allowed to talk to them, even though you might be friends with one of their members? If you feel like a family reunion is going to be virtually impossible to pull off this year or ever, MTV wants to hear from you.
If you appear to be between the ages of 17-28 and are embroiled in a family feud please email us at FamilyFeud@mtvn.com. Be sure to include your name, your story, a phone number and a photo.
Tell MTV why you need to be seen and heard. This is your chance to let others see what your life is all about!
