Sounds like he may possibly be both scared and envious of you Greenduck. I find insecure people hoping their manic speech will make them feel better, but on my side, I'm more annoyed--like you.
He may be jealous of you, hoping you'll "fill his emotional bucket". So he talks and talks and talks (he's scared of being vulnerable), and I've found one in my life constantly talking so he might be validated. That--is annoying as ****. Plus draining. It's made me tense and slightly irritated when around him due to his emotional blindness.
I'm on E2 too, and today I'm finding the more I accept myself, the less I'm bothered. They don't have access to my emotional tank now. I can't fill them anyway. I'm learning to take care of me when I'm being given old messages to "feed them".
You'll know what to do or say, when it's time to do so. Take that from me, someone who didn't believe or trust himself much at all. E2 is a real lifeline
If I'm off concerning your dad, I do apologize. I only read the one paragraph above mine. Not the posts before.
