<human>: #Coming from a conservative and male dominant family, I have always been the rebel amongst me and my 2 sisters (38 and 42). My father(68) has always verbally abused my mom(62) and she has never really stood up for herself because of her submissive nature..not that she's an angel herself (she has her flaws).

#Last year, my mom complained and cried to me that my father was chatting with women online and some conversations were quite obscene and scandalizing. I told her why don't u talk to him, to which she replied.. He doesn't listen to me. She even told me he got pshyical on her when she threatened to tell me and my sisters. 

#After months, I finally decided it was high time and to raise the topic to him. He was embarrassed and extremely angry that I knew what he was up to. I told him this is really wrong and that he can't hit my mother no matter how she is and if he does it again I will have to call the police on him. He got extremely pissed off and told me that he will never speak to me again. And that is pretty much what has happened. 

#I am now happily married to my SO(32) and my father still doesn't speak to me. I had tried a few times but I have now given up as it has been over 10 months now. 

#Recently, while my husband was traveling out of the county, my mom called and said your dad and I want you to come over for dinner. I went. He still didn't speak to me. I felt miserable and still feel like shit. If he loves me so much why is it so hard for him to let his ego go and just talk to me? He keeps asking my mother about me and how I am doing but will never bother speaking to me even in front of other members in the family. I have given up however deep down I really wish I could do something to sort this difficult phase in my life.

#I love my father and so does he, however his egoistic nature is something I can never accept. I have lost hope in how to fix this.
