I went to my dad's last night, and it was kind of strange. I began to remember all the stupid little mind games we used to play. But even so, I realized that a lot of them were just my dad being bipolar or unaware of others.
It used to bother me so much, the way he acted. Every day with him was like a battle. Now I'm wondering if it was all in my head.
He was crazy though. He can be very selfish and controlling at times. He tried to teach me things when I didn't really care, and he would get very angry because he wanted things his way. And I just wanted to be left alone.
Some of that comes back every once in awhile. He always wants to spend a lot of time with me when I go over, but it feels more like he wants to control my life again. But he's learned to let me go home when I want to.
It's not so bad after all.
