I am sorry Jenna. While my father was never abusive with me I was often the adult in the relationship, so I can relate remotely.
It has taken me 28 years to realize that I can't change him and that no matter how hard I want it or how much effort I put into the relationship he will never be the "perfect" dad. I have had to put boundaries up for myself so I don't get hurt all the time but have come to realize the relationship is what it is.
((((HUGS))))
