>father is dying of cancer
>feel literally nothing
This doesn't make me a bad person, right?
Our relationship has never been good. It was hard to make eye contact before, it's impossible now. He's never made an attempt to know me or show he cares about me. I find it hard to do for him now. I can't get over the idea that this makes me morally wrong and evil to feel completely apathetic about my father dying.

read "The Stranger" by Albert Camus, its short and explores a similar situation as yours. it might help put things into perspective for you

Has he made any effort to show you some affection since the cancer? If not, I wouldn't feel had about apathy.

When I was a kid I used to think I wouldn't care if my parents die. I never felt bad about it, but I was scared to tell other people because I thought they would think I'm psycho

My father died of cancer 3 years ago and I felt nothing at all because he barely cared about us
>>
My dad cares about me, but I still don't like him
>talks too much
>never listens
>always getting mad, swearing
>always complaining
>is a fucking asshole
Yeah, fuck him. Even my mom refuses to ride in the car with him because he's unpleasant to be around.

If I actively cared enough I would probably hope my father died. He was a bad person.
However Anon you shouldn't feel forced to have emotions for someone you don't have a relationship with. Just because you're genetically related doesn't mean you have to share a life.

i went throught th same shit when i was 10, dont feel bad. its his fault for not being a good father, if he was a good father you would be sad

Yet he paid for and raised your ungrateful ass so you could be a failure, leech his earnings, and shitpost on /r9k/. Well done

Pretty damn close to mine, he's just really passive-aggressive in his complaining and mom still indulges him. He's not really a bad person so I try not to hate him, but I sure fucking hate living with him. I'd feel bad if he died because he's the main source of income for our family and I feel terrible admitting that but it's the truth.

We never asked to be born.

>ungrateful
to be honest I would have rather been poor and lived without him
don't be mad because you self insert as my father and dislike the idea of me not appreciating your dick head insufferable self being around
>>
OP
tell us about your date situation
