The Temporary Daughter

Tweet

After 40 years of being his daughter, I am just now finding out it was a temporary thing. He's not my biological father but he has raised me since I was 2 years old. I've always known about his son and daughter, who are older than me, that were taken from him when they were very young. I have always hoped he would find them and be able to reunite with them. It has finally happened with his daughter. There has been so much animosity between his daughter and wife and I have been there trying to make peace between the two. Well, it all backfired in my face today. Everything blew up today and I was put right in the middle. I was threatened, put down and humiliated from his grandson and his son. When I defended myself, my "father" blew up at me! All I did was make it clear to the two men that I have not had anything to do with any negative things and that I don't appreciate being threatened. My "father" made it clear to me tonight that I didn't have a right to defend myself to his children. Since I moved in with him to help both of us with bills, I have given my notice that I'll be moving at the earliest convenience. I can't live with a man I've always looked at as my father knowing I was just the temporary daughter until he found his.
