it sounds like everything is ok.
He may not be the sorta person you need in your life now but as you guys grow older he will still be there for you.
It always amazed me how parents can live with a child for 15-20 years and not know they are gay.
your dad is from another world. He might have never worked out his own sexually and only just could hold on to a thin and narrow line of emotion to raise his family. The possibilities are endless; because he has the right to be his own complex person just like you.
By the sounds of things he has done a wonderful job.
You need to also look at your parents as just the people they are, no different than you or anyone. At this point in your life, if you are not going to get the emotional support from him its just not there yet. Instead build that circle of friends outside your family
