I do not get along with my father a lot of the time ( his love is conditional and often I don't meet the requirements).
I went shopping with him today for my mum as she is unwell atm. She have me a list and asked me to buy the items on it. Half way round as I'm filling up the trolley, he starts going through it and decides what HE doesn't want or what he classes as a 'luxury' and says she cannot have it as he can't afford it .
After speaking with my mum, she agreed to pay for the 'luxury' items hardly call tissues and yogurts luxury when we got back so I put them back in the trolley.
He then comes back from where he's been finding his luxury coffee to tell me I cannot have those items. I explain what I agreed with my mum and he said no that was not okay and went to take them out. I said I would pay for them, which he still said no to and shouted at me Infront of people and snatched the trolley and disappeared.
I then couldn't stop crying as I was upset and embaraased. I work in a very public job within the local community and If any of the families I work with had seen me it would have been awful.
I am so cross with him, I am an adult and he made me feel like a naughty child. how dare he shout at me in public and embarrass me like that.
He is now refusing to speak to me as in his eyes, I was totally in the wrong ( yes he has always been this immature and no he will never change).
