What do I do if my father thinks I hate him even after I told him I don't?

Maybe you can talk to him some more. Just ask why he thinks you hate him and make your point clear. Talking helps a lot!

Try and talk to him again and really show him you don't, maybe if he feels you mean it. I'm sure he'll see it

Don't stop telling him that you love him but SHOW him that you do. Actions speak louder than words :)

Prove to your father that you do not dislike him. I believe that hate is a very strong word. You should spend more time with him and do activities with him go places with him. Tell him that you love him and that you care about him

Sometimes actions are stronger than words. Spending time with a parent or engaging in activities you enjoy with them make them feel loved. Try to include him in your daily life and tell him about the small details. He will definitely appreciate it in the long run, even though it seems insignificant to you.

Show him that you don't hold animosity towards him by spending time with him if you're able to or by talking through the reasons he thinks you dislike him, explaining your previous actions and asking for explanations of his if this becomes possible and appropriate.

Sometimes actions speak louder than words. It's the little actions we do that can show the person we love them. For some people, words don't mean much.

It is possible your father is the type of personality to self pity. It is also possible he is trying to be manipulative by making you feel like you hate him unless you do or say what he wants. However, it is also possible he is just very sensitive and doesn't realize the truth. If that's the case, just give him some more time and don't do anything unfair to him. If you are not sure whether your father is being manipulative or not, a good book to read is Toxic Parents by Susan Forward. If he turns out not to be toxic, then there's no harm done.

Keep assuring him that you don't- and show it! It isn't easy, it never is, but be patient, understanding, and compassionate. Spend time with him, talk with him, and bond with him. Try to see his side of things, and talk about it. It may take a lot of time, but you're family, and you should be there for each other through the good and the bad. :)

Love is spoken louder in actions than words. Show him you love him. If someone told you they don't hate you and proceeded to punch you in the face on a daily basis, which message are you more likely to believe? The words spoken or the punch felt? Let your actions shine.
