Why I feel so down?

Well I am trying to see my family in CA for my father's (3rd) wedding and also for Thanksgiving with my mom. Both parents are divorced btw. I am broke after spending all that time and money to go see my master in Sept and
just a week ago at Oklacon. This email my father sent me a few days ago before I talked to him Sunday but never read it until last night made it hard to read again.

Please answer this email! We need to nail down your trip I believe if we don't do this soon I won't be able to pay for the flight because it will be out of my price range. If I don't here from you this week you must be too busy to care about your family and don't care to come back home for a visit. You must be too busy traveling back and forth to the states to see your friends instead of thinking about us. Call or write so we can discuss the plans.
Later,

He said the exact same thing to me after I called to say hi and that I loved him and if he needed anything from me. Nice dad for making me feel sad

It may seem like every son or daughther of this "Internet" age may be running away from their parents to live off their life, but when the parents themselves don't care for their children and for going a selfish pursuit- I don't blame anyone for fucked up family situations that separates the family because of some "Midlife crisis".
I'm so very sorry that you're sad, daddy! *hugs*
