He gave up on me, because to him, I don't work hard enough. I'm actually kind of thankful he gave up on me though. I didn't like him breathing down my neck, constantly questioning my every decision. It felt as though he was full of disappointment and disapproval, and wanted me to live life a certain way. But he just couldn't say that outright. So I'm glad that pressure is out of my life. And I feel more free to actually pursue what I want, without some impending judgement by my dad.
