So my dad...

We're all naive T_T

My stupid mom just came into my room, and she was all "are you okaaaay? you walk past me without saying anything and it makes me think something's wroooong." And I'm like "meh" and just stare at her. And she's all "are u spaced out? ur naught actin liek urself!" and I'm like "hi."

Ugh -__-;
 
Not really, I know the feeling. Sometimes I just can't be assed talking, and there really is nothing wrong so I'm just like *shrug*...
 
and you just stare at her, unblinkingly... lol, your an odd one VR :P

She said my pupils were dilated too, I really don't see how o_O

Exactly. They freak out when I don't talk, they always think I'm mad at them or something is wrong. Maybe I'm just not in the mood to talk? But no, that's not possible at all.
 
I know how you all feel... Every time I come home my parents ask me how my day was and how I feel. I usually answer them and go back to my room. To be honest, I kinda feel bad when I don't talk to them... They do care about me but I don't really communicate with them... I just want to go to my room. >_<
 
Same here, minus the feeling bad part. When I get home from school I don't want to think about it more as I regale my day's experience to them. If I want to talk, I talk. If I don't want to talk, I don't talk.
 
My dad asks me loads of things, but at all the wrong times. It has to be when I'm in the middle of a game.
I don't mind, really, he's good to talk to alot of the time. Just not when I'm being bugged about things.

i get that all the time, "you shouldnt be doing that on a school night" and all that, somehow anything like that is the reason i dont feel liking talking to my mum, its not that i dont feel like talking, no it couldnt be that, it must be some other reason.

But, i have found a way to stop them talking to me, when they get home i ask how work was, pretend to listen to the reply, then say school was good, and they leave me alone

I don't know why the possibility of us not feeling like talking (or just not wanting to talk to them) is so hard for them to understand.

See I've tried that "good" approach, and it has a 50/50 chance of working, and either result sucks. If it works, my dad will prattle on about his day at the office or my mom will blather on about the tutoring place for retards she works at. If it doesn't work, they keep prying and asking more and more questions.


Liez. He is an imposter.

Anywho, back on topic.
NOTE, I read the 1st page, as well as the images on the last.
I skipped the rest.

I think yo should consider yourself lucky. My dad never cared for me, He cheated on mom, WITH HER FRIENDS, and later they separated.
He lived in different locations, even in spain, and I'm still in Norway.

after several years, he got back to norway, and he didn't even contact his kids. (me and some of my siblings)

The fact that your dad does this, might be because he didn't have a good relationship with his dad at your age, a sorta 'preemptive strike' to make sure that you don't end up like many bad folks.

You are his son for crying out loud, he loves you.
Even if you nag at him to stop, he will not, in fact, every second he spends there with you, is time good spent. If nothing else, this might be his idea.

I can completely understand his ideas.
I don't have any kids, nor do I have a GF. Yes, I do want kids in the future. And I will do my best to make sure that they do NOT have the same things around them as I did.
As some other stated, it might be his way to form the "father-son" bond. As being able to talk is the first rule in any bonds/relationships.
You might have different interests then him. Hence the talk about work.
since by telling you about his job, he is talking to you, and forming the said bond.
And he might stumble upon a common interest by accident.

So. I say, even if you are just sitting there, and looking into a wall, or whatever. At least listen to him. That alone might give him some happiness.

Your dad is a royal asshole x__X

Well my dad doesn't really take note that we have different interests...he's always talking to me about motorcycles and randomly showing me motorcycle videos on youtube. It's excruciatingly boring...then again, he may be trying to convert me into a motorcycle lover so that we can have a shared interest.

You do bring up a good point though. And now that I think about it, I was a bit of an arse. When he came home from work and started talking about his day, I think all I replied with were a few grunts and he finally left. I think by now he's at work...so I'll have another 10 hours to figure out how to politely feign being interested.
 
the motorcycle thing might just as well just be another way of showing you HIS interest.

Since I am fairly sure, you did as the rest of use when we where small. Come with drawings that no one buy yourself know what is, drag him around to various locations where he just stood and looked into a dead tree.

regardless of all this, He was always smiling, and complimenting you on your drawings.

This I am fairly sure on.
So, it might be time to do SOMETHING SIMILAR.
You don't have to show interest in his MC thing.
But try to find some common ground.

Actually no. My dad was always at work and when he'd come home in the evenings he'd be tired, irritable and wanting to be left alone. But I see your point :neomon:

I try to sometimes display interest in his motorcycle hobby, like asking what kinda bike w/e is, or saying something like "oooh, that one looks cool." I should be grateful he's not one of those Harley Davidson freaks though.

Technology is sort of common ground for us...because he keeps up with everything...but he's also a Macfag. So every fucking time there's a commercial for a PC with some new feature or whatever, he's always like "MAC DID IT FIRST WINDOWS R JUST COPYIN THEM OLOLOLOL" and I just hold my tongue and laugh silently as the Safari browser on his Mac freezes up constantly when he's trying to show me videos.
 
LOL
but it is true
Even thought I am a windows user.
Vista is a COMPLETE ripoff from leopard or whatever it was called

Mac had most first. and is still WAY more stable then Win

Windows releases critical updates like once a week.
Mac has "some if you like" 2 times a year or so ^^

This is even a better reason that he is doing what he is doing.
He might be trying to take back lost time.
