I have been majorly disappointed in my father. He had an affair on my mom and even though my mom was willing to forgive him and take him back he had another affair on her. I would say his love for me is shallow and not as deep as I'd like.
Has anyone disappointed you in this life?

That would be myself fluerette. Past mistakes as they say if I knew then what I know now. But I soldier on to try to do what's right as in learning from past mistakes.

The say the times you get angriest at another person is where you know you have made a mistake in your approach to them and they have overreacted somehow. In these 50 50 calls instead of taking accountability ourselves so we can learn and grow we double down on the other person and get twice or three times as mad at them as necessary. I am trying to work on my locus of control to make myself more accountable for the actions of others towards me. That said it is important to have limits and not carry any one concept to an extreme and self blame. I am not inferring any of these thoughts or giving you food to think about, I am just sharing where I am at in life as sparked by your post. Thanks Hercules

Hi herc, yes getting angry at others could be one of those mistakes but what I'm referring to is from the time a teenager up into my adulthood. Certain boyfriends I was picked. Not going to college and things like this.doing drugs when I was a young adult. Etc...getting angry at folks.... sometimes it's acceptable depending what they did but I pray on it and get those toxic folks out of my circle. Sometimes it can just be misunderstandings especially if it's over text or messaging. Someone can easily take what you say out of context.
You know, when my son died a lot turned on me because I think someone had something to do with it. I still believe that but I wont get into it anymore. Its between me and God now. I will only trust to talk to him and a few select friends about my deepest thoughts.
You know I do not feel bad for my anger at those who got me angry when my son died. I think it's sad that people would even anger someone in that condition. I feel I had every right to be upset. I can forgive but if they wanna rehash I can delete them out of my life again.you know there are 2 sides to every story. But I dont go around telling everyone about it. I tried helping someone that needed help and they turned on me. I do t need people like that in my life any longer. My life is peaceful now without folks that want revenge for me trying to help them.

Equally important I never got to know My Father... Other than his nationality being Danish and that he was eight years older than My Mother born in 1917 in Copenhagen... and his name Hjalmar Hofgaard
