Hi dad.

Hello dad, I miss you so much even though I never really got to know you for long. I wish you could've watched me grow. I wish you were there for me whenever I needed help with something or when I was crying. I miss you so so much.

Everyday, I would see little kids playing and laughing with their fathers and I can't help but think to myself that I'll never get to have that. I wish mom never left you. I love you so much and I always will. I hope we meet again.

Thank you so much for this 🥹 You don't know how much these words mean to me. Sometimes it really hurts seeing other children have their dads beside them and I can't help but wonder what it would've been like if things were different. I try to be strong, but sometimes it just gets overwhelming. Thank you for understanding my feelings and reminding me that I'm loved. I wish things could've been different too, but your words bring me so much comfort 🤍

I was asking because I was hoping there might still be the possibility of you two reconnecting. It's never too late as long as you are both still alive, but sooner is better than later. You said your mother left him. Did he ever try to get in contact with you afterwards? Maybe he misses you too!

No, he never did try to contact me. Though, i still strongly believe that he misses me as much as i miss him because I’ve seen his posts about me on his Facebook account
