>havent seen my dad in months and its apparent he isnt coming back
I am supposed to be sad right? Because i am not. I am just disappointed. Thats all. I should be crying my eyes out but i am not. This is normal right?
Right? Or am i just overeacting to me not reacting.

Disappointed is normal man, everyone takes their issues on in different ways. Hope you're focusing on your self/loved ones lad.

It's okay to just be disappointed, he probably doesn't deserve it for you to be sad about him

Its hard for me to do that. He was the only one really there for me in my life and i feel like i did something wrong. I am more disappointed in myself than him.

My dad died back in January 2015. Like a habit, you will get use to it. Yet, the pain never goes away.
Some people face grief as stoics, whilst others may resolve to destructive behaviors, some may even find solace that the suffering of their loved ones is over. There is no right way to experience grief.

I know what you mean about feeling like you've done wrong, but you haven't. This time will be tough for you anon, realisation and reflection upon an event like this is often harder than the initial blow of it occurring.

The habit analogy here is very apt, we're all burdened with our own experiences and dealing with them is one's own path.

Your words mean alot. Even though you are just a stranger.

I'm glad my words have reached you, it's a difficult task to exist, it's never been easy. All I can say is that you are your own person whose life is yours to control, I won't tell you to not let it influence you or anything of the sort, you make that decision alone.
