What has made it particularly difficult for him is the inconsistency in communication. He had allowed himself to feel optimistic about the prospect of a proper reconciliation, but that optimism has been steadily eroded, leaving him with the sense that any meaningful reunion may now be further away than ever, and that he is being ghosted and blanked by his own father.
