Today, I thought about how my dad went to get me a Halloween costume and hasn't come home yet. That was 11 years ago. We've moved twice since then. FML

Maybe he got you a ghost costume, and was too excited so he tried it on. Now he can't get it off, and he's been around you the whole time. :o

Today, after slaving for 11 years on the perfect Halloween costume for my beautiful daughter, I come home to find that they have moved. Twice. FML

Oh my, that is just terrible. I am so sorry, OP.

Something must have happened. Dads just don't disappear near Halloween. Maybe your mom and dad had a fight that you didn't know about.

Parents walk out on birthdays, Xmas, Thanksgiving. Just because it was Halloween don't mean he just can't walk out and say f**k it

That's so sad... I'm sorry OP :(

your probabably better off without him.

The costume wont fit now :( Seriously, life is too short to dwell on him. Just be the best person/parent you can be. Thats all that matters now. Good luck OP

this fml made me sad. if he just left because he didn't want a family anymore, as much as it hurts you i think you are probably better off without that kind of person as a role model. the thought did cross my mind that he is missing, but i think OP would've said 'been missing' instead of 'never came home'...either way, its sad. whenever you think about him and start feeling sad just think of all the people who you do have that love and value you, im sure there are more than you realize.

How can anyone say OP deserves it? ******* trolls. I'd say the father is a bastard, but we don't know the details. It doesn't sound like he took any bags with him, so it's possible something bad could've happened to him. Either way, it's really heartbreaking just to imagine it, growing up always hoping that your father will be back as if he'd never left. I'm sorry OP.

Sorry, I can only give you One thumb up. I'd give you Ten but they won't let me. Well written and well said.

^ Agreed, but since you can't give her 10, I'll help and give her one of mine. Again, well said, Vas. :)

Maybe he found the sweetest ghost costume ever and u just can't see him...twice

He can't find you because you moved. Dammit, stay still!

Dad-"Honey, I'm home...it was the last one left, made a little girl cry, if you know what I mean. Wink wink."

That's horrible, OP. *hugs!* :( How old were you, around 7 or 8 maybe? I have two little boys, I couldn't imagine just Walking away from them and leaving them wondering, "Where's Daddy?" :( Think that'd break my heart. I hope you get closure one day. Cheers.
