I'm so sick and tired of my "religious" parents. I'm so pissed. I'm going to lose it. I called my pastor father and asked him if he can come to my graduation ceremony next month. He told me if I'm going to change my ways and turn my life to "Christ". Until I change my ways, he and my mother will not be attending my graduation ceremony.
I told him are you serious? You're going to choose white Jesus over your own flesh and blood? He raised his voice talking about-"Jesus is not white. It doesn't matter what color he is. You are committing a sin and I want you to change your ways."
Told him I'm not a baby anymore and I don't believe in white Jesus nor religion of that matter. He was pissed off that he cursed me out from A-Z and I told him why I don't believe. He still didn't understand.
Told him- "You don't understand the social and culture ramifications of what I'm talking about". He raised his voice again and told me he will never support me and I'm not his daughter anymore and never to call or visit his household ever again. Then he hanged up.
I try, try, and try to make my parents proud. 23 years and he still haven't said I love you. I go to school and work, owned a house, car, no children, smart, kind, not spreading my legs around to different men, and ambitious. Still it's not enough to satisfy him.
Now I'm crying and pissed off.
