  • Interesting story...

    Long story short....

    My dad remarried when I was about 8 years old. This was the wicked stepmother that everyone fears. She made my life horrible! But I'm sure I was no angel either

    Anywho, dad and the wicked stepmother had a child, a little girl. 6 months after the birth of my sister, the wicked step mother took off with the baby. She refused child support from my father, and refused to let him see her. My dad spent years trying to find them, but never had any luck. He got close one time at a parade(Gasparilla Parade) down in Tampa. But she saw him and took off again.

    Fast forward a few years...

    I spent a few months searching for a sister that I really never knew. All I had was a name and DOB. Ended up finding her. Called and talked with her for a few weeks. Then we decided to meet. I flew down to Tampa and spent a couple of days with her. It was awesome.
    Well, my father has still never seen or even talked to his daughter......until now I flew her and her husband out here, and they arrived last night. I am flying my father here tomorrow morning, and they will meet for the first time tomorrow afternoon.

    My dad is acting like a little girl. He is nervious as hell, and freaking out....in a good way

    Anyhow, just thought I'd share.

      Fascinating story Nick. That is so cool that you are all getting together especially after enduring so much. I can't imagine what it must be like.

        Re: Interesting story...

        Thanks guys! My dad is sooooo nervous! In a sadistic kind of way, it's kind of funny. He's always been the "enforcer figure" in my life. And to see him act like this just seems so unnatural

        On a side note...I know nothing about my dad's and this womans relationship. All I remember about her is she was just a mean woman. What happened between them hasn't been talked about very much over the years, so I'm sure they are both at fault in some way, shape or form. She had her reasons, and I'm sure she felt she was justified for doing what she did. But now it's time to let all the hate go, and start fresh. My dad needs to meet his daughter without her having harsh feelings towards him, and he needs to go into this without having any harsh feelings towards her mother. We'll just have to wait and see how they react to each other tomorrow.

                          The only thing that would have made this story better is if you made it a surprise for both of them somehow... awesome story anyway.
