Hi reddit, I want to give some context before explaining what happened. My dad and I have gone no contact multiple times mostly for refusing to help with my tuition (while agreeing to help with my siblings) and for mistreating my mom. I also have bipolar disorder and tend to go off the grid when i don't take my medicine(there's a purpose behind me saying this). I get really depressed and won't talk to people. I've been trying to mend our relationship and have actively been communicating with him mostly about mundane life things. I don't tend to ask for anything financially because it never really ends well. My mom helps me with groceries and stuff so l'll ask her for anything before I even think of asking him. I recently moved out of state in the beginning of the year to go back to school after dropping out a couple of years ago. He and my mom both agreed to help with my rent with a set amount of 400 per parent and 800 on my part. During the month of february he got mad at me for not calling him immediately after my job interview. I had passed out right after because I got a migraine. He yelled at me and claimed I was playing favorites to my mom because we spoke (she called me on my walk home once I got home I laid down because I literally couldn't stand). After that he said he'd call me later but never did. I figured he was mad at me and that l'd give him some time to call me. During that time I got busy with school and ended up forgetting to take my medicine. After two weeks of not talking to anyone my mom checked in on me and made sure I started taking them again. I don't not take them on purpose I have ADHD and when there's too many things going on i tend to forget small tasks and my memory is bad so I would think I took them when I actually didn't. After a while I was doing better I called my sister to see why he never called me and didn't check up on me. I assumed he was mad at me because when I moved here he would get upset if I didn't call him every day. My sister asked him and he apparently thought I was mad and ignoring him. But he never called me or reached out like at all. After that I made an effort to talk to him and make it known that i'm not mad. I had plans to see him in person when I visited and explain what happened but he showed up for five minutes talked about his business then left. Anyways rent was due on the first so I sent him a text asking if he could send me the money. He ignored me. He proceeded to call my mom and tell her I was rude and ungrateful because I asked for the rent through a text after I didn't speak to him in February. We've been talking since the end of February. My mom explained that he agreed upon the rent and I texted because he never sent it. He asked my mom if I called her for the rent because I texted him. She said no and that she just sent it to me without asking because she knew it was due. He asked her if I asked for the same amount as her from him. She told him that this what we agreed upon. He got upset and just went on about how I am disrespectful. I tried to call him and tell him how what he said about me not talking to him hurt my feelings when I know I am making an effort to talk to him. I didn't even get to explain to him what happened because he cut me off because he was too busy to talk to me. I'm not sure what he's saying about me to my family but he has a tendency to tell them the same things he's saying to my mom so i suspect that he's doing that. I don't know if I'm in the wrong. Am I actually being disrespectful to him/an asshole. If I am I want to apologize but I really don't think I am.
