Brainwashed and a worthless burden? His words, I assume?

I'd say you didn't deserve something as awful as to be disowned, but you did. You so did. You deserved to have that toxic figure out of your life. You deserve to not be tied to him in any way. It really ******* sucks but at least he's not dragging you down anymore. Maybe someday he'll regret losing your amazing self or maybe he won't ever look back. Either way he doesn't deserve another ounce of concern or caring from you, love.

Your father is a jerk! You sound like you are doing good without him and you will continue to do great things in your life. Good luck in the future Op and be glad your dad is part of your past.

I wish you the best man. No one deserves to go through that but it will do you good and will help you learn to be independent. Best of luck my friend, and have a good future.

After reading this. I see you will be more happy person without his part in your life

You may need to change your FML name, then. Your last initial likely won't be G anymore. ;)

I wish I could thumbs up this comment more

That's terrible, OP. Your dad (or ex-dad) should have been proud of what you have achieved and will achieve later in life. I'm glad that he will be out of your life now and I wish you the best! Good luck! :)

How the heck are you a worthless burden? You sound like you contribute greatly to society.

Can you not read? It clearly states -according to dear ol dad, at any rate after the first statement...

I'm tempted to say YDI simply because this is actually beneficial for you, but that's always had negative connotations. So I'll just say YLS for having to have that worthless fool in your life to begin with.

Congratulations on graduating high school. best of luck fir College!

It says they are his words...

You are freaking awesome!! Instead of allowing it to take over your life, you learned from it and became stronger from your struggles!!! Congratulations on your scholarship and keep going forward in life!!

It'll be Kyle K, but I'm pretty sure it can't be changed on this site. :(

I don't know how it is in your country, but in Poland parents can sue their adult and working children for parent support - like a child support, but reversed. If it may be possible in your case, try to legally part form your father so he can't sue you later.

Then we'll just know you as Kyle the G.

I hope it goes through really quickly and you are finally free of him as soon as possible. And good luck for the rest of your life and your future with your great girlfriend. Stay strong and hope you have plenty of luck come your way once you are free.

Good for you, hon! He sounds like a horrible person, that would only hold you back if he hung around. Maybe it's for the better that he is gone. I wish you the best of luck, OP! I hope he doesn't come crawling back to you after you find the happiness you deserve. Good luck, OP!

Hey you go to Sally's. I go to Padua ??

Congrats and your father is a piece of scum the only good thing he did for you was this

Congrats to you for dropping that deadbeat :3

#45, that's exactly what OP said.

Holy crap, I feel like you're talking about MY dad (also a narcissist). That would also completely explain how even if the courts need a good "reason" to let a parent disown their child, it would still happen with him. Narcissists are so manipulative and demeaning and such good actors and LIARS. And they make so little sense. Hang in there, Kyle! You and I are NOT brainwashed or useless or any of those other things your dad thinks you are.

124- I think what you're talking about there is a sociopath. Narcissists are just people who are really full of themselves and who think they are basically perfect, which is certainly aggravating, but they are not necessarily manipulative or liars or the other things you listed there. Although, many sociopaths are also quite narcissistic...

Out of curiosity, did he tell you directly that he hates you? Because I have to deal with a passive-aggressive narcissistic mother. The thing is, I can't tell if she hates me or if she is just too broken to love me the way I need to feel loved. And I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

When they get old and sick will be exactly when they call. When that happens remind him of who disowned who.

I'm so sorry that u got someone like that as it donor and u really r better off

I'm glad you see this as a good thing. Even though you're only 18, you're already more of a man than your dad is or ever will be. Congratulations on everything you've achieved and good luck with your future endeavors! It sounds like you have a very bright future ahead of you.

Hope you get as far away from him possible. I'm assuming he's not a good guy from the things you said, but I hope for the best!

Jokes on him! Sounds like you're on the road to success and happiness and he's just a sad, bitter man. Good for you, OP. You're going to come out a much better person because you'll know exactly how NOT to treat people in the future. :)

Unfortunately I wish you were right, but actually, Narcissistic Personality Disorder has often been used interchangeably with Sociopathy as there are only a few key differences. What you're talking about isn't a disorder but what the word "narcissistic" actually means. I was talking about the disorder but didn't make it clear. Anyway, peace out!
