Is it true that all robots have a shitty or non-existent relationship

>>39368733
It's true in my case. He is emotionally distant.

me and father are much too equal
we hide our feelings, we don't trust anyone
because of this our realtionship is quite "distant" and yet somehow close
he's the only one who knows what i'm thinking and vice versa
but he being in the marine doesn't help, only see each other on sundays
t'is quite sad to have someone who's so alike yourself, but not be able to have a descent relationship
i wish to make my old man proud before he dies, at least

>>39368733
>Tfw that picture was drawn by that blonde loli

true in my case, he was busy working when i was young so we didn't spend much time together. Divorcing my mother for another woman when i started high school only made it worse, as it completely changed his personality. We kinda just tolerate each other, meaningful father-son talks are very rare.

>>39368733
Else we wouldn't be robots. Aside from the genes, how your Dad raises you can make you into a Chad or a Beta Robot.
If your Mother primarily raises you, you are more or less lost. Every child where the father must worked all the time, sitting on the couch and do as minimal activity with you as it gets (because he is exhausted from his work, which is of course understandable) ends up being a Robot, you need a strong male figure to become a Man.

My dad is very successful but he spends as much time away from our house and family as possible, I can't blame him.

>>39368733
My father decided at an early age that I was a failure and I quickly caught on to that. He bought me presents, he did what a father is supposed to do, but he never cared.

He drove me to activities, but he never asked how it went or how I've progressed.
He begrudgingly helped me build my computer, but got annoyed if I wanted to try doing parts myself as it took longer for him.
He took me on weekend trips, but we never talked about what we saw.
He bought me a guitar, but only got annoyed when I practiced. "Can you stop playing that part over and over?"

He would also build up anger and release it on me regardless of how insignificant of a mistake I did. Never hit me, but man would he have me know what an awful kid I was. I learned to avoid him but even that sometimes wasn't enough.

I got depressed and had terrible social anxiety. Sometimes it got so bad I couldn't go out myself and he had to drive me to some places. He would start berating me on the way there for everything he had built up until I was in tears. He didn't care if it made my anxiety worse.

It wasn't until recently when I got my first job, and my boss was such an awesome dude that realized what a father figure really is. It was a night and day difference. I went from a shy, cautious, and lazy guy to a confident and productive person when I was at work. For the first time in life I genuinely wanted to do my best.

I am confident that if I had a real father then I would have been a Chad or at least a Chad with glasses.

>>39368733
My dad died when I was 18 so you might be onto something

>>39368733
It is for me. I practically grew up without parents at all. My dad is just an old pothead hippy. He's awful.

>>39368733
Never saw him again after I was 5
Apparently when I was young he touched me but I think its bullshit.

>>39368733
He is a really good father but he's not my friend. He doesn't really care about my personal problems or if he does he gives very generic advice.

>>39369044
Wait really? I thought that was a different artist.

>>39368733
my dad's 50 something and still lives with his mom. only met him a few times

>>39368733
I'd say my relationship with my father has been complicated. In my earliest childhood, he was absent a lot, often working. During and after that, he got angry easily, although he really wasn't physically violent after I became 4 or 5 years old. This lasted until my late teens or so. Since my mid-teens, he's been a bit overprotective (which is comfy, so I don't complain).

It is true for me. Almost chopped him up with a hatchet a while back when he started talking shit.

No. I get along fine with my father.
The problem is that he's a beta ex-hippie weeb nerd, so his influence hasn't been all that great as far as normiehood. He build me a PC but never played ball with me. Gave me anime recommendations but never tips for girls.
The ONLY reason he didn't die alone is because my mom is an extremely dominant woman, so she essentially took him under.

the only thing that's prevented me from going down the same path is the Muhreens

My dad died when I was 14 and was an abusive drunk for about five years before that, can confirm

>>39370123
An awesome dad that isn't home is still not a good dad.

And the last part just confirms the thread. Now that he has time for you he's bringing you out of robothood.

Still, good of him. He had work and that can't be changed, but still did the best he could at being a father.

>>39370210
Nice, hope you show him appreciation.

>>39370215
Sorry to hear, no one deserves a father like that. And yeah I did become a bully too, but have finally broke that mindset.

I doubt this will happen but if I have children I will make damn sure their father sticks around because children with involved fathers almost always seem to grow into confident, fulfilled adults.

>>39368733
My dad is too old to be working as hard as he is. He was working most of the time when I was growing up too. He's disappointed that I'm a retail wagecuck while everyone else my age is going to college but other than that we are on good terms. I don't blame him for having my brother as his favorite. I was a shitty kid.

I think you're on to something.

My mother cheated on my father. After my father left my mother he went on to become rich, marry a foreign woman and moved to another country. My mom on the other hand is an alcoholic who brings home different men every month.

>>39368733
My father and I have our differences, like any father and son, but we are quite close. He frequently gives me hugs and kisses to show affection (I am emotionally distant in general and dislike this, but I tolerate it of course) and tells me he loves me every day. All this despite being a mentally ill, lazy, pot smoking disappointment. He's by no means a perfect parent but he does his best and I love him.
Even though I have such a good relationship with my dad, I remain a socially and emotionally dysfuntional robot.

Fucking hell
And I thought my roommate's family situation was complicated
I wish you the best of luck finding someone and I hope your kids never go through the pain you have

My biological father was my dad's friend who cucked him. I spent summers at his place and I live with one of my half-brothers. The guy I grew up calling dad wasn't mean to me, but he never spent time with me like his actual kids. We see each other at Thanksgiving and one or two times during the year. My biological father is very nice, but he always seems tense around people.

My father worked a lot while I was growing up. He'd get home in the evening, but would always head right up to his office after dinner. His weekends were mostly spent in his office as well. We didn't really do much together and seldom interacted with each other. In high school he took a job in another state and would come home every or every other weekend. Eventually my mom and brother moved with him, but my parents divorced a year later.

I'm sure part of why he shut himself off was because of my mother. She means well, but is very difficult to be around and gets anxious and paranoid very easily. I'm sure they both realized they weren't happy only a few years into their marriage, but neither of them would really change who they were. Dad remarried a few years ago and he is a completely different person. We still don't or see each other often, but when we do it's positive.

my dad practically doesn't exist.

never seen him, mom knows nothing about him, basically an empty space.

WHY DID MY DAD DIE? WHY WAS IT HIM? WHY DID GOD TAKE HIM? SHY DID GOD PUNISH ME?

Did you post it already? I just consider my story weird because my mom and stepdad were immature and selfish as hell.

I don't even want to have kids because I think I will just default back to being just like my mother.

My dad molested me as a kid. So yeah, the shoe fits.

>>39368733
Yeah he is a Fucking schiz I am happy I rarely see the kike.

>children with involved fathers almost always seem to grow into confident, fulfilled adults.

Or school shooters.

My Mom ditched my mother. I was too young to know the details and my mom didn't explain things in detail. He basically spends all his time gambling and lying in bed. Never paid a cent to raise me and to this day lives off his mother like a parasite even though she's probably doesn't have much longer to live. He's chronically irresponsible. One time I went to visit him and he drove to a place to bet on horse races and he left me locked in the car with an alarm on because I was a minor and couldn't gamble. He also broke my clavicle once wrestling around and he essentially called me a liar when I said it was broken. It took seceral days before he finally drove me back to my mom so she could take me to a doctor.

>>39371771
Dad ditched my mother I mean

All he ever did was drink his life away out in his room and left his mother to raise me. She didn't want me either so I just spent all my time on a computer and playing video games.

When I was a kid I could go weeks without seeing my dad's face even though we lived in the same house. He would just come home and immediately start drinking, he wouldn't even bother to look my way. So I did the same and hid myself in my room shunning the outside world, just like him. The apple never falls too far from the tree.

I have a great relationship with my father. We used to play videogames such as killing floor or borderlands and other coop stuff. Even shitty games were a comfy experience with him. Sadly we don't play anymore since we moved but we still talk about them (and many other topics).
He's always supporting, so much that i don't deserve it, he's the best father i could hope for. I don't have any complaints about my family, I love my sister and protect her, she loves me and tried hooking me up with her friends before giving up. Only reason i haven't killed myself yet is that i just can't bear the idea of hurting them like that.

i think this too but i'm not sure that is the case when the father isn't confident himself.

>>39373565
it's kinda funny how all the hate is directed toward the single mom when the dad is the one who fucked off and the mom literally destroyed her life for the kid

>>39374912
Or, the mom was a slut that doesn't know who the father is.

My dad was a deadbeat piece of human garbage who was content to recite empty platitudes on the fundamentals of manliness on the few occasions where he could even muster up the basic human empathy to see me in the first place.

>>39374953
true i'm sure this happens too, just in my experience the dad has his kid then decides he wants to go back to his younger years and unsuccessfully try to bang young ladies on tinder

Nah, my dad and I have a pretty good relationship
>>39374912
Actually when my parents were getting divorced my dad looked into it and found that custody defaults to the mother and the father has to prove she's unfit to be a parent (damn near impossible) even if he's the better option
It can commonly end in the father never seeing the kid again
Thankfully their divorce wasn't messy so I chose to live with my dad and visited my mom when I wanted (usually weekends) and they're back together now anyways

>custody defaults to the mother and the father has to prove she's unfit to be a parent (damn near impossible) even if he's the better option
America's law system is so pussy-whipped. Good for you that it wasn't messy or violent. So, have they said anything about remarrying? Are you going to be a bridesmaid?

Funny, about a month ago I got my dad to open up about it a bit more and he told me that after a month they had already started seeing each other again and going out
I guess they're made for each other
>So, have they said anything about remarrying?
They've been wearing their rings and addressing each other as "my husband/wife", but nothing on a remarriage

Major depressive disorder, alcoholism.

My mother is partly to blame for being an autistic roastie but I do not blame her for being like me.... Just for making me like her

>>39368733
My biological father abandoned me on my first birthday because as he said "I'm not ready to be a father." In under a year he was with another woman and had three kids with her before I was even 4. This act also deprived me of a serious inheritance because my biological grandfather or great grandfather was an oil baron. My stepfather was an ass hole who HATED who I became and emotionally and physically abused me. He also used me as a tool to get back at my mother after the divorce. He did the same to my step sister. Once she turned 18 he abandoned her to my mother now that he couldn't get child support for her or hold her hostage to emotionally abuse my mother. He has never helped me in any way and even told me that I would amount to absolutely nothing because I'm a worthless sack of shit. Which in a way actually helped me because it helped me get through putting myself through college. I only made it just to spite him.

So yes I do have a fucked up relationship with both of my fathers.

>>39368733
I've spoken to my father twice in the last 12 years. I'm probably more of a failed normie than a robot though.

My dad raised me from infancy, basically, cause my mom was the breadwinner. Then when my mom divorced him for being an abusive fuck he took off without a second glance and talked to his kids maybe once a year.

I last talked to him five years ago. I stopped calling him to see how long it would take to call back. He never called back lol
