I Hate Everything About You, Why Do I Love You?

Father

My dad. Those are two words alot of kids want to follow up with kind words. They want to be able to brag about their dad. I'm one of them. My dad is awesome. He knows some french, knows how to work in cars, he worked in a nuclear power plant for a while, he always has a good idea for any situation and is just the funniest man I know. But he is also a bit of a jerk, at least that's what everyone says. Sure, some of his jokes are rude, and he could probably be a bit nicer but he's still a good person. Not sure why people keep saying he's a jerk. Now for the few things I don't like about him. I guess him being a bit rude is a down but it doesn't really bother me cause he's honest. I wish he had more time to talk to me but that's not really something he can control. I won't lie I am actually jealous that he had two more kids while he was gone. The biggest thing is that he was gone for around 3 years. Tbh it doesn't bother me as much as it probably should. He just kinda went on hiatus and didn't give a warning and didn't contact me. According to my grandma he tried to come back but ma didn't let him. That's really all I have against him and even then I don't really care because he actually tried and wanted to see me happy.
