Don't let it.
Just keep your head up and you mind strong.
Good Luck

well when I was three months old my dad died... If you let it affect you it will. But I believe as long as you remember you're love you're going to be fine. It is hard cause you don't have that covering. Most people that don't have their father's are needy cause they want that void to be filled. But if you don't ask for anyone to fill that void you shouldn't become needy. so just say the place that my father hold s can't be filled with anyone else. Oh yeah and don't use peoples either. If you need anymore help let me know I've dealt a lot with it all.

Happiness is an attitude.
The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window. "I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy. "Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait." "That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it ... It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away ... just for this time in my life."

It depends on the circumstances ... I hope he's ok.. Your question is a little vague .. But just stay busy and focused on other thing's in you life , if he isn't able to be there for you .. I'm sure you will make it just fine.. A lot of people have to go through their whole life without a father, look at it that way ..
Good Luck To You

Yes, it will affect you a lot. I suggest you seek out some counselling, preferably family counselling, but if your family won't participate, then go on your own. A father is an important influence in your life. You owe it to yourself to do all you can to get the proper supports so you won't have a void to fill up with negative things in your life.
All the best to you.

That depends on how much he impacted your life before. I don't want to pry as to what way he isn't a part of your daily life, but yes, it will most likely affect you in some ways. Just find a way to cope with those some ways. You'll do allright.

Usually it does. I can't tell if you're a male or female. A guy needs a dad to teach him how to be a man and a girl needs a dad to teach her how to relate to men. Girls usually will seek how guys that will use her unless she has a dad that gives her the love and patience and guidance a girl needs. Guys need a father to show them so many things, so without a father you'll have to learn to walk on your own and that will affect you. I'm sorry for you and all the kids who have broken homes.

Well just because he isn't a part of your daily life anymore doesn't mean that he isn't a part of your life at all. I don't know what the cercumstances are in your situation, but you should analyze you situation for yourself and take it from there. I wish you the best of luck in you situation.

It could. It can be hard to adjust to any lifestyle change. Try to concentrate on keeping yourself happy and whole. Don't set yourself up to fail. If you tell yourself you are going to be miserable, you will be. Try to establish a new home life for yourself that is still normal and fun, but different now. It sounds like he'll still be around and available. So, find comfort in that...
