Annoying fathers

My dad really is annoying! I tell him “Dad, I passed all my exams, I’m graduating!” He takes the mickey, then I tell him “Dad, I just recieved an offer for a masters” and his reply is “is that supposed to be good?” Then he goes on to make fun of me again. There was also the time I found my first job, then my second job…
Just now I asked him to do something for me and he starts again. I told him if he doesn’t want to do it then I’ll just go elsewhere. Then he finally said “no, no I’ll do it” followed by another annoying comment about how stupid we are (my friends and I).
He doesn’t do this with my brothers, they don’t have jobs, or go to University, why do I need to go through all this? :teary2:

Re: Annoying fathers

cuz...he wants u to give ur best:D

Re: Annoying fathers

It's not helping at all whatsoever, in fact I avoid talking to him in case I say something evil, which would only lead to my mum shouting at me.

Re: Annoying fathers

u can sit with him and ask him why he is doing it....in a polite manner....explain how its effecting u...

Re: Annoying fathers

parents have all these experiences of life we are vibrating to have. when they sound like they are dominating or interfering or discouraging they are actually considerate and caring about us in their own way and just do not want anything hurtful happen to us. bitter or sweet their language and conduct be, they are same in their hearts of hearts. so just feel yourself in their shoes and dont be so negative about their conduct and action.

Re: Annoying fathers

I think your father is following the old strategy of not treating girl child fairly because jitna laad pyar dogey utna doosray ghar jaa kay usko mushkil hogi. It does exist still people treat their daughters unfairly so that after marriage when they get a bad treatment from their inlaws they can absorb it.

Re: Annoying fathers

have seen such people before and generally the reason behind this kind of behaviour is that they want their girls to be perfect and strong so that no one can let their girls down in any field of life.

Re: Annoying fathers

ahh idk parents are hard to understand and even if they are a bit difficult to deal with,they are still coolest people we will ever know.
may be u can tell him you dont like it?

Re: Annoying fathers

He loves you. Enjoy this till he is around. you will miss all this...

Re: Annoying fathers

May be you should start to give him a hug or say I love you dad , you are the best in return for his condescending remarks , I am sure he is smart enough to get the point and start to be nice.

Re: Annoying fathers

wtf?

Re: Annoying fathers

hearing this for the 1st time…:konfused:

Re: Annoying fathers

may be he wants you to follow his footsteps. and you can figure this out by informing him that you are quitting your current job and pursing the same career that your father has/had. see his reaction.

i learned this the hard way that you cant please everyone, especially parents (whether it's yours, your in-laws, your friends)

Re: Annoying fathers

haha. I am sure he will be bewildered or he will call it badtamizi.and will be mad at her.

Re: Annoying fathers

Sounds like my elder brother, he made sure to mock me at every stage in life and I always tried to prove him wrong. But just because of him I am where I am. One day you'll also owe your success to your dad
