Am i wrong....?

Most of my life was lived with the absence of my father...and when i was 13 he all of sudden popped up! Well nevertheless I tried to establish a relationship with him and for the last 5 years we've still been trying. FIVE years and i still don't really know this man...and recently i have come to refer to him as that "man". The fact that he lies @ every giving moment doesn't help the instability of our relationship either. He has broken so many promises and betrayed me that it's hard for me to trust the things he says... I've played volleyball all of my life and i can't remember him being at any of my games...ever! He doesn't seem to realize that financial aid does not make you a good father...i need emotional aid also...Everytime we bid farewell on the phone he ends with "I love You" and lately i've found myself finding it hard to respond with the same or not responding at all. It's come to point that i feel i would save myself some pain by severing all ties with him....so...I am i wrong?
