My dad has never been proud of anything i do. When i was young boy and i had friends from school coming around he'd treat them more like his son's.
When i was young i had a bit of problem with my weight, i wasn't massively overweight but i was what you call chubby, My dad and i used to go to our next door neighbour if we ever needed help o'r to borrow tools o'r something and our neighbour did the same. Whenever we saw our neighbour, our neighbour would blatantly comment on my weight saying things like ''you've gone fat haven't you!''......Not once did my dad defend me and stick up for me...Never! My dad even said i was fat once as a kid when my jeans would no longer close.
As i got older i had lost weight initially due to anorexia, but upon recovery i took up cycling as a sport. I did some racing and i was never the fastest cyclist in the club i was among the slowest, but my dad never praised me, instead he'd praise other boys in the club as if they were his own son's.
My dad spoilt me pretty much but i wish he would just have been more supportive and emotionally close.
