I have no fatherly bond. My Dad barely tried to contact me as I grew up.
What's it like to have a loving father anons?

that's some legit good parenting right there. one of the biggest mistakes you can make is bringing a bunch of random shits around your kids, you may even get them molested. As far as your question, i don't know.

I haven't seen my dad since I was 12. 20 years ago today, on Christmas, my mom and I were in a terrible car wreck driving across the state to see him in jail.
I'm spending this Christmas with my older brother and his family. He's a great dad. I'm jealous, I'm the fuck up of the family but his life is so.. comfy.
I have literally never met my dad. (No, he's not a nigger.) No siblings and my mom raised me completely by herself.
He never paid my mom any child support, she never filed for it... now he has two daughters with a different woman, 12 and 14, and I'm thinking of meeting up with him for the first time. I just want some cute imoutos desu. It will be awkward meeting my dad for the first time in 20 years though, but if I get some imoutos out of it, maybe life will be worth living again...
I don't know, I'm conflicted.

I'm not sure if I'm qualified since my father is mostly overseas to work
He was always I looked up to. My father was a son of a farmer here in the philippines and he studied hard to graduate as an engineer and the top of his class even now he works overseas to give us a life he never had. Which is probably the reason why I always backed out everytime I tried to attempt suicide because I always thought maybe I can make him proud in anyway.
too bad I ended up a failure which is probably why I'm too ashamed to even talk to him and the worst part is that he forgives me for failing 2 years of college and I feel like I'm not worthy to be his son.

Anon I'm conflicted. I understand your story, as it is what happened to me, but I switched between my mom and dad until I was in high school. I haven't seen my dad in three years, but he periodically texts me, and I've wondered if it's worse to be in contact with a dad you can see raising a family that does t include you, or having one who's non existent at all. I mean, he was three hours away from me last summer and didn't bother to see me, and saw a baseball game instead.
My biological dad was a schizophrenic addict, he was almost never lucid.
My mom and nigger "step dad" were abusive drug dealer/addicts that were never lucid but in a crazier more damaging way.
I had a "bond" with them til last summer but I realized that they were just manipulating me for money and for the fun of it.
When I think about them I feel pretty bad.
