After everything my dad is just done with me (just need to vent)

Its frustrating to think that after everything I had done for him I’m not even acknowledged, ever since my parents got separated when I was in high-school I have lived with the father side of the family, which wasn’t exactly easy as they’re the type of people that are close minded and not to mention fond of guilt-tripping, especially my grandparents. Sometimes it even got physical and it got to the point where my grandfather threw tantrums and threw us out of the house, my mom couldn’t do anything since my dad was the breadwinner (works abroad) any time she would intervene or even mentioned he threatens to stop supporting us, which lead us to dropping out of school, and I hated him for it; when I was a senior I decided to make amends with my father, as I came to realize that I’ll ever have one dad it wasn’t really perfect but it was progress; we started talking again and I wasn’t angry all the time; fast forward to college; he had started a business here in our home country and he asked me to manage it; regardless of how tired I was from classes and duty’s; I gave my time to travel an hour just to visit his business. Since for the longest time he was in abroad; I as the eldest son took responsibility for the things needed to be done from budgeting our expenses for me and my brother; and when he decided to buy a house I was also the one who got the required documents. Fast forward to this year, I graduated, passed exams and got a job; naturally but before that he decided to move back to our home country since he got laid off, but that was fine since he has businesses to support us and naturally since I have a job I helped with some of the expenses; he has been here since December 2025 still continued with my responsibilities; I cook and clean, it was good for the first few months, however in the recent months he got more cranky and dissatisfied, he projects his anger towards us, saying things that it would be better if I had found my own place; it felt like I never had a home with him; since he kept repeating those words; I got fed up and actually decided to leave; but it was harder for me to leave than for him to let me go; I told him my decision to give him peace and all he has to say “whatever, its your choice” as if he had no influence around the idea; it just hurts when I left he didn’t even say goodbye, just told me to leave the keys; now I even found out that he is removing my bed; I know its silly, but for me it just confirms that I no longer have a home with him. It just saddens me, I’m just a used napkin, disposable; I did everything made sure I graduated so I wont have to repeat college; passed the board exam, and got a Job I think as a son I did my best, or maybe I’m just exaggerating my worth. I fail to mention the fact whenever he calls me, he asks how is the house, how is the business never how am I, but when he does, his answers is just “thats life”, Idk I question my worth
