Delicate Family Situation - Need Some Advice
My parents recently divorced, and I intend to drop my dad's last name (my last name is currently hyphenated). I won't go into the specific details, but my dad and I are not close and probably never will be. At the same time, he is my dad, and I have no idea how he will react when he finds out that I've dropped his last name. Does anyone have any advice for how I can broach the subject and still remain cordial?
important question first: did you attend a non-target?
No. Why?
I was on very bad terms with my old man, I didn't take anybody's lip when younger and we had generally different understandings of things. I would advise to talk some sense to your old man, you share the same blood and you should stick together. My dad remarried as well, and got a little daughter, but i am still his only son. So one night I picked up my phone and talked things straight. He's quite a stubborn person, but I played the only-son card well, and we have been good for past 2-3 years now, and it feels great.
My parents are divorced too and I added my mothers name before they split. Yeah he was mad, but who cares? It's your life not his. Do you! Haven't spoken to him in years too.
One part of demonstrating maturity is having uncomfortable conversations with people. It's your choice. Be up front with it and he might get upset, but that's his problem not yours.
