text: i'd like to find time with my father but he always works. at home even. no time with him, what am i to do? he is constantly working, and i'm left home alone. i've told him i'd like to spend time with him. i even try and work with him at home toget time with him...but its just not the same. i'd love to have times like they were back when i was seven or eight. so happy...but now i drag on with my life in a sad state letting the world see my outside picture perfect life. really, thats what they think it is, though its not. this is just one major problem thats come up recently and brought to my attention that nothings getting done about it. i even put a date on the computer and put "daughter father time" for thats when his fiancee wont be here...>,< but looks like things changed and she is. grr. dont like her..o.0 but i guess now a days thats to be expected. so any advice would be great on how to get my father daughter time. i really do miss it. you know i understand that you feel like your dad works all the time and don't spend any time with you, but let be for real for a second he has to work in order to take care of you and him. secondly everything is getting more and more expensive to live now.  the reason why i am telling you this is i am going through the same thing but it is with my husband of 17 years. he works all the time and have some really early leaving in the morning hours and he comes home and he is too tired to share some time with me. i too complained about it and i finally thought about it and i have to say that they have to do what they do in order for us to have a roof over our heads and food on the table.  my advice i can share with you is simple we both have to get over this and let them do what they do and find something for us to get into doing for ourselves.   like i said i truly understand but you have to take this like a trooper and let your dad be a dad! because right now you are being selfish just like me!
