Only met my dad once when I was 8. None of the poll options fit for me. Last one is closest but he didn't leave us my mom left him. Allegedly my grandad held him at gunpoint while she packed.

He was a bad alcoholic to the point he would choose beer over feeding his family. And he was a man baby. According to my family there was a month where here and my older brother only had rice to eat and she had to borrow formula or baby food from a neighbor for me. And she'd catch him sometimes drinking straight from the jug of milk and if she said something to him he'd start bitching and pour the whole thing down the sink.

Once I turned 18 all of a sudden he wanted to try and build a relationship with me. And he couldn't even manage that. We talked a couple times over the phone then Years went by with no contact. Suddenly one day I get a call and he says oh it's great to hear from you but I meant to call someone else. I'll call you back though. 2 years later he called back. I ignored the call.
