Hi Chaceissad
I can understand why you'd be feeling angry. Sounds like there's some frustration there, some resentment, disappointment and more. All that stuff can add up to anger.
I think sometimes it's not necessarily about a person's title (Mum, Step mum, Dad, teacher, etc), it's more about the person and their way of thinking and seeing things. For example, if your Dad's always been the kind of person who'll listen to the reasons for why you do the things you do and someone else just refuses to listen to reason or reasons, you could say your dealing with an unreasonable person. My 18yo son and 21yo daughter typically won't reason with their father because he's pretty closed minded. On the other hand, I'm open to reason, so my kids will discuss more things with me. I should add that my kids have taught me to be a more reasonable person, so I give them a lot of the credit for me being this way.
Do you try and talk to your step mum but she doesn't want to listen? Is your dad different? Has he always been someone you can talk to? If he has, maybe having a chat with him and saying something like 'Dad, I miss us being able to talk like we used to' might get his attention. Maybe he's not fully aware of the fact you both don't talk like you used to. Maybe it's something you need to wake him up to. We parents can be a bit asleep at times and need a bit of a wake up call. Does your dad know how you feel or is it something you need to start discussing with him, so that he can start helping with finding solutions?
