Dear melon80

Thank you for your kind words and wishes! I wish for you the same. You deserve them as well!

You have realised that the way your father and stepmother treat you is unfair, and heart-breaking. They don’t have your best interests at heart but other people will(and do)! Your partner for example. How does he feel about this? Your friends? Do they like seeing you getting hurt? No, they want you to be happy.

I agree with you, if it is not an emergency then don’t show up to accept all that criticism and manipulation. In fact, to ensure there is really an emergency you could contact a doctor at the hospital and explain him/her the situation asking to be informed when things are at deaths door for real!

Some people due to distorted behavior cling to other peoples lives to affirm their life. That is why having the power to pick you up and put you down blinds your parent and stepmother to the hurt they inflict you. But this is not a healthy relationship at all…
Why destroy something you created with effort where you live that pleases you for something that brings you pain instead of satisfaction?

It’s a harsh reality that just because they are your parents doesn’t mean they have your best interests at heart
I am so sorry, melon. Maybe they can’t help it, maybe they don’t know how bad they make you feel. Maybe they are empty emotionally or immature to care about yor feelings. I don’t personally know them but i do know that you want to feel healthy and happy and that is what matters! That matters. You matter.

Beyond relatives, beyond strenuous social commitments lies our self, in the grass, grasping a big dose of air, wishing hapiness to the song of the birds on the tree branches. Wishing hapiness to come to us, like the song that enters our ears. And whoever wants hapiness deserves it. No one should feel guilty to enjoy life!

I am sorry for this silly little verse, i couldn’t help myself!

My best of wishes to you
George
