She didn’t say he was gone forever. I don’t know if I blocked him, but I just remember sitting there crying, not realizing he was gone.
“I don’t know what I did later that night or the next day. I don’t remember anything other than it was weird that all of a sudden my dad wasn’t around. And he left for a while. About a year.’
She revealed she had never heard from him once during that time and explained, “He just called one day and said, ‘Let’s go see The Fantastickes.
“So we had dinner for a bit and saw the show. After that, I started seeing him on the weekends and this new way of life unfolded.

“Like I said, he’s not a good communicator. Maybe if my parents had talked more. There were signs, but also, knowing my dad, he probably didn’t say anything.
“But, as best he could, my dad explained himself and apologized, and that’s enough.” We reconciled. There are still parts that are difficult for me, but I am an adult. I can’t blame my parents anymore.
She described her father as “tall, six-foot-two; a gentle giant, indeed. One of the nicest men you will ever meet. Incredibly shy and funny.

Her father’s passing comes after Jennifer spoke of the pain of her parents’ divorce and forgiveness to both her mother and father later in life.
Talk to Seduce last week she said, “I think my mom’s divorce really screwed her up.”
But after years of reflection, she is now able to see some of the limitations someone of her mother’s generation had to cross.
“Back then, it wasn’t like, ‘Go to therapy, talk to somebody. Why don’t you start microdosing? ‘You go through life and take your child with tears on your face and you have no help,’ she added, apparently referring to her mother’s situation.
“I forgave my mother. I forgave my father. I forgave my family,’ Jennifer revealed, which is very important given that she had been estranged from her mother for years.
