I just called my dad, "Dad" for the first time in 27 years. I did it on his answering machine, but he will hear it.
 
omg nice job biteme:)
maybe things will change
 
I had'nt seen my sister in about 25 years. I just saw her last year for the first time. Better late than never bro. Good for you.

I see him frequently, I just haven't been able to call him dad since I was 13. It all happened in one day. He slapped me to the ground and at that instance, I hated him in my heart. It was hard for both of us, the teenage years. Over the years, I've been able to talk to him, but I've kept this bitterness and lack of trust in my heart that I haven't been able to let go of. The time has come to let go of it.

Awesome, go be a family now and show him what a great son can do for his dad. Do it!

25 yrs? damn i can't imagine going that long without seeing my sibling
 
Thanks everyone. That really was a huge obstacle overcome. I hadn't been able to say that to him in nearly 3 decades. I knew I had to do it, wasn't as difficult as I though it would be. Now, maybe I can begin to heal and help him to heal also. Can't do this alone.
 
it's never too late to do the right thing... i hope you can get some absolution from this event. i also hope he can overcome as well. As much as i am not religious bitme... i feel like i know you and i have never said it was a bad thing to be spiritual... always remember that.
 
What made you decide to do this? What made you pick up the phone and call and call him "Dad"?

I don't know. I and others have been praying about it. I just went for it. Something that should be so natural has been impossible for me to utter for all these years.
 
Wow! Interesting stuff Biteme, I can relate with you on this but nowhere near the time span you're talking about. 27 years!!! Shit man that's half a life time.

Must be more to it than you're letting on but I'm happy for you that you're making steps to resolve your differences.

Don't have any wise words for you but I'd say that whatever the situation is/was I'd want to know my father even for curiosity's sake...I'm going on 30 and I'm just getting to know my father after him being a stranger all my life. It feels good!

Hope it all works out well for you bro.

Great. Well, this act has not only opened up a communication with your father, it has also allowed you to become more open in other areas of your life that you may not even know yet. "It has set you free" so to speak. Clearing this "hurdle" has given you confidence that you may not have had before. You may not feel it now/yet, but it's there. It can give you strength in other areas of your life such as going on a job interview, meeting new people, taking a risk on a business venture, etc...etc... You've taken a big step! You are empowered.
