so when i was younger, my dad gifted me a book he helped write. i was in second grade and it was his only copy. i got bullied a lot at that school and someone must have stolen it. either way, it was over a decade ago. people laughed at me and the teacher yelled at me to sit back down, and i remember leaving to get something and checking back and it was gone.
my dad will switch often between being very nice and loving, then mad and stuff over the book, for example, then when i say idk where it is, he sends a bunch of heart emojis, acts more excited than usual, and says “thank you anyway!!! <3”
furthermore, he will get into arguments easily which is also why he cant land a job, and then will get mad when someone is not “on his side”, calling people traitors and stuff for refusing to do favors for him and switching between really kind and loving to really mean and angry when someone doesn’t do what he wants.
he’s too self-absorbed to get a diagnosis and not self-aware enough, but everyone says he’s narcissistic.


He’s still cut up over something that happened over a decade ago?
yes…
At least he abides by the phrase
“Water under the bridge”
They built a bridge over a sewage pond apparently.
