He says that I am the problem. That my depression and my therapist, even, are against him. I am depressed just trying to explain what one of his adult children told me once. That he will never, ever, take emotional responsibility for how his actions or in actions affect those closest to him.
He's now estranged from 2 of those 3 children. The third is a priest, so I believe he puts his trust elsewhere in pursuing a relationship with his dad. He is utterly remote, yet hurtful in what he doesn't say. Passive aggressiveness taken to an extreme degree.
It hurts really badly. I don't think he gave any credence to the work he might have been doing in therapy. He never once mentioned it.
