“Promised graduation trip, planned family cruise instead”
What Actually Happened
My dad promised me a graduation trip, then planned a family cruise instead without telling me. He pretended not to be involved in the conversation, then lied about what he meant when I called him out.
What I wish I knew
"He would have been honest with me about his intentions and budget."
Advice to Someone Facing This Now
If I could tell you one thing
